Idaho judge issues new arrest warrant for far-right activist Ammon Bundy

[mysteryowl]

A judge in Idaho has issued a $250,000 arrest warrant for Ammon Bundy, the anti-government activist, after he repeatedly failed to show up in court.

The 48-year-old son of the controversial Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, and organiser of a takeover of an Oregon wildlife reserve that left one of his supporters dead, fell foul of the court after not attending hearings in relation to a $52.5m defamation ruling against him and his political organisation.

He was supposed to appear in court on Monday but once again did not appear. Instead, he sent an email in which he said his life had been “consumed by political prosecutions”.

In response, district judge Nancy Baskin revoked Bundy’s $10,000 bond and ordered his arrest.

Wow, how is it this guy is not in prison!

1. Well

He isn't in prison because law enforcement is either too afraid to arrest him...or support his delusional ideas!

5. Don't forget biased juries. He was tried for the Malheur Refuge occupation,

but found "not guilty". A ridiculous verdict by a "jury of peers" -- literally in this case.

4. Is the 250K a reward?

And, is it dead or alive?

8. Well, there goes my Christmas...What will I do with the Mare-leg pistol now?

I don't think that anyone wants to go after those outlaws because there is a clear and present danger of being shot in the process. What they need are drones that can snatch a fellow up by the collar and haul them back to the jail. Of course, I better be careful what I wish for...In fact, don't tell anyone that I suggested it...

10. I think they already exist

...some drones are powerful enough to lift a human, but ID'ing a specific individual is still problematic.

I may be wrong but the sheriff in his county supports the bastard.
