OREGON STANDOFF: AMMON BUNDY ANSWERS PROSECUTORS SENTENCING ASSAULT ON RYAN PAYNE
"Who wrote the 91 pages. Its these lying, no good for nothing prosecutors that are being paid to destroy our liberties and to accuse. They are the great accusers. How many innocent people have they put in prison. How many innocent families have they assisted federal agenices in taking their land, taking their liberties and even killing......"
Ammon Bundy video conversation 2/27/2018
Ahead of Tuesday's (February 27th) sentencing of Ryan Payne, federal prosecutors composed a 91-page document with quotes from a phone call that has also been released. The call between Gary Hunt and Brandon Curtiss of "Operation Mutual Defense" discussed aspects of the protest following LaVoy Finicum's murder by law enforcement and the arrest of protest leaders.
This document painted defendant Ryan Payne as a "domestic terrorist" and tried to assert that Payne and others including Ammon Bundy plotted the protest at the refuge before January 2, 2016.
They wanted to define Payne as a protest leader even though he was not tried with the leaders of the protest in the first trial and in a sense, tried Ammon Bundy in his absence.

In a two part video conversation with supporters Kelli Stewart and John Lamb late Tuesday night February 27th, Ammon Bundy told the story of what really happened.
Ammon Bundy said he never specifically mentioned the refuge as a place to protest until the day the protest began January 2, 2016. He had told Payne about a number of possible ways to protest earlier including bringing in cattle and grazing without a permit, a controlled burn without a permit and made mention of the refuge as a potential site for an occupation.
As we've posted before, the refuge workers were told not to come back to work after the New Year's Day holiday and as the protest began authorities told the media of another possible protest site at a firefighting camp in the area.
Clearly the FBI had a list of possible protest options that Payne gave in his conversations with the "Operation Mutual Defense" group that included Hunt and Curtiss. It was from of them or someone associated with them that the info apparently got to the FBI giving them advance notice that some kind of protest was about to take place.
What does giving the FBI advance notice of anything count for anything anyway? We all know how that went down in Florida recently. Its as if they want things to happen.....In the case of the Oregon Standoff they apparently wanted a protest to start so they could send in informants to incite the protestors to actions which would get them into prison for long time.
The informants incitement and entrapment activities also provided a pretext for the FBI led violent operation on January 26, 2016 that killed LaVoy Finicum and injured Ryan Bundy.

Ammon Bundy noted: "They sent a tremendous amount of informants in there that tried to get us to act in violence and try to get us to look like we were acting in violence. We did not do that even with them trying to influence and manipulate us....."
Because evidence was not limited by the judge in the first trial Ammon Bundy and six other "leaders" were found not guilty.
