Following the long awaited trail, the armed leaders of the Oregon militia standoff group have been acquitted of all charges.
According to KOIN 6, Ammon Bundy, Ryan Bundy, Jeff Banta, Shawna Cox, Neil Wampler, Kenneth Medenbach, and David Fry were acquitted of federal conspiracy charges and weapons charges. Conspiracy charges included trying to intimidate refuge workers into not doing their jobs through threats or force.
During the 41-day standoff, someone was killed. The standoff didn’t conclude until the FBI decided to intervene. Acquitting this group has people outraged, including the U.S. Attorney’s Office and Harney County Sheriff David M. Ward, who released a statement.
