Bundy Ranch standoff trial ends with zero guilty verdicts
A federal jury in Las Vegas did not return any guilty verdicts Tuesday against four men accused of taking up arms against federal agents during the Bundy Ranch standoff in 2014. Jurors dealt government prosecutors a stinging defeat in the case when, after four days of deliberations, they returned not-guilty verdicts on the most serious charges and deadlocked on a handful of others. Richard Lovelien of Oklahoma and Steven Stewart of Idaho were acquitted on all counts and walked out of court Tuesday night free after spending more than a year in prison. Two other defendants, Eric Parker and O. Scott Drexler, both of Idaho, were acquitted on the most serious charges of conspiracy and extortion, but jurors failed to reach unanimous verdicts on weapons and assault charges.

GD assured me there would be decades of sentences handed down.
Once again, a poor allocation of resources. How many tax dollars were spent on this mess? |

How do they do these "retrials" I thought once you were acquitted the government could not keep coming after you?

Didn't see that coming.
Glad the jury figured out the judge and prosecution were the same team. Still think the Bundy / Malhuer / III% people are 'tarded. |

Kind of weird. My family and I walked past that courthouse on our way from Rick's Gold and Silver Pawn Shop to the mob museum in Las Vegas while they were protesting a few months back. |
