| Description | Ammon and Ryan Bundy have been found not guilty of conspiracy. Their five co-defendants Jeff Banta, Shawna Cox, David Fry, Kenneth Medenbach and Neil Wampler have all been found not guilty as well.
Jurors were unable to reach a verdict on Ryan Bundy’s theft of government property charge.
The jury returned its verdict after some six weeks of testimony followed by less than six hours of deliberations, and the last-minute replacement of a juror after an allegation surfaced that he was biased.
“It was a pretty jaw-dropping verdict,” said OPB reporter Amelia Templeton of the climate in the courtroom. |
