Showing Original Post only (View all)“U.S. Superior Court judge” from Denver, has arrived at the occupied Malheur Wildlife Refuge [View all]
January 13, 2016
Militia and antigovernment extremists illegally occupying a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon are now pledging to form a citizens grand jury to indict and bring criminal charges against public officials and judges the occupiers accuse of committing crimes and violating the Constitution.
With such indictments, the extremists doctrine would justify their attempts to make arrests, get judgments or file liens against the targeted public officials
Bruce Doucette, a self-proclaimed U.S. Superior Court judge from Denver, arrived at the occupied Malheur Wildlife Refuge near Burns on Tuesday to review evidence that public officials may have committed crimes, the Oregonian reports.
Doucette, a 54-year-old computer repairman, told the newspaper that 25 local residents would hear testimony and make decisions in private before deciding whether to bring criminal charges. Those findings would be put in writing and made public, the newspaper reports. He didnt say what would come next.
Federal authorities, including the U.S. Attorney and the U.S. Attorney General, have been silent on their plans for those involved in the Oregon takeover, but the parallel to the Montana Freeman standoff, including the citizens grand jury development, has to be catching their attention.

Their fear of being small and hate of things they can't conrol feeds the beast within.

Itsn't this like John Wilks Booth. He tried to start a revolution but no one came.
