Judge Anna Brown has proven she will not take any crap from the defense in this case.

One of the defense's tactics in this case is to try to pivot into an exploration of the shooting of LaVoy Finicum. Finally, Judge Brown informed Ammon Bundy's lawyer, and later all the lawyers on both sides, that the only things that can be discussed regarding the ventilation of Tarpman are the day he was killed and that he was killed. Go outside that little cage, says the good judge, and she's going to whack the lawyer that did it with a $1000 contempt citation.

They also interviewed the rancher who operates next to the Malheur refuge. He was not happy about going through calf season surrounded by armed sovereign citizens.

The case is on hold until next Monday.

1. Don't mess with Judge Brown

But if you disregard my sage advice, bring your checkbook.

2. They are HIDING HIM UNDER A TARP!

It's a shame LaVoy is not around for trial. He struck me as the brightest bulb in that chandelier. A dim, barely flickering bulb, mind you, but the brightest one nonetheless.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but he was the "legal scholar" of the bunch.

4. He's mulch now.
