Oregon occupier charged with damaging tribal grounds remains at large

SEATTLE


A protester in the armed takeover of an Oregon wildlife refuge whose identity was revealed this week after he was indicted on three felony charges related to the occupation remains at large, officials said on Tuesday.

A federal grand jury indictment accuses Jake Ryan of conspiracy to impede U.S. officers, possession of firearms and dangerous weapons in federal facilities and depredation of government property related to the 41-day standoff at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in eastern Oregon.

The indictment, dated March 8, charges Ryan and fellow protester Sean Anderson with damaging an archeological site considered sacred to the Burns Pauite Tribe, through the use of excavation and heavy equipment.

Of the 26 defendants named in the indictment, Ryan and another protester, Travis Cox, are the only two who have not been arrested.

Most people never bother to read the full US Constitution, which makes perfectly clear what a militia is and how it should be regulated and funded.

I'd think if I was working for the FBI and wanted the public's help in identifying and apprehending these two, it would begin with mugshots. Cannot seem to find any pictures of the two of any kind. Not even the FBI's Web site has anything on it.

And here's Cox:



If you see either of these two, do not attempt to apprehend! They are considered extremely stupid!
