Thanks to Michael Lee at Bellingcat, the Ada County Sheriff in Idaho can seek extradition of dangerous militant Aamon Bundy from the state of Utah.
If you recall, in 2014 the Bundy family led an armed standoff against Bureau of Land Management (BLM) officers who were attempting to seize a herd of cattle that had been grazing for free on public land for nearly 20 years.
In 2016 Ammon Bundy led the armed takeover of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge in Oregon, resulting in the death of one rancher and 27 indictments.
In 2020 Ammon Bundy was convicted of trespassing and sentenced to community service after storming the Idaho State Capitol during a protest against coronavirus-related legislation.
In 2023 Bundy spearheaded a campaign of protests and harassment against the St. Luke’s Boise Medical Center after welfare authorities removed and hospitalized a baby for malnutrition, reportedly the grandson of one of his associates. As a result, in July 2023 an Idaho jury found Ammon Bundy and several associates liable for $52.5 million in punitive damages. Bundy refused to appear in court, leading to contempt charges and an arrest warrant issued in November 2023.
Michael Lee, analyzing imagery and Ammon Bundy’s social media posts, geo-located the fugitive scofflaw to southwest Utah. A member of the Church of Latter-Day Saints (LDS), Ammon Bundy seeking shelter in a remote area populated with fellow congregants seems logical.
