Ammon Bundy, 41, of Emmett, Idaho, wore blue jail scrubs Tuesday afternoon and had a copy of the U.S. Consti- tution in his front pocket. He has rejected the option of civilian clothes, contending he’s a political prisoner. When asked where he lives, he told the court: “Multnomah County Jail, maximum security.” The testimony quickly got more serious. Bundy testiied he knew nothing about ranchers Dwight and Steven Hammond until his father, Cliven Bundy, asked if he was aware of their situation. “I’m afraid what’s happening to them is the same thing that happened to us,” Bundy recalled his father saying, referring to the family’s long ight with the government over federal lands and grazing fees, highlighted by a 2014 armed standoff with federal agents at Cliven Bundy’s ranch near Bunkerville, Nevada. “I told him, ‘Dad, I can’t ight another battle. We’re doing the best we can to keep our family from going to prison.”’ Bundy said. Bundy said that changed in early November 2015, when he clicked on an article about the Hammonds and became consumed by their case. He told the court he had an “overwhelming feeling it was my duty to get involved and protect this family.” Within days, he traveled to Harney County to meet the Hammonds and unsuc- cessfully press a local sheriff to shield them from federal authorities. The Hammonds were convicted of an arson charge that carries a minimum prison sentence of ive years. A federal judge, on his last day before retirement, decided it was too stiff and gave the men AP Photo/Rick Bowmer, File In this Jan. 5 ile photo, Ammon Bundy speaks during an interview at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. much lighter penalties. Prosecutors won an appeal and the Hammonds returned to prison Jan. 4 to complete the mandatory minimum. Bundy and six co-de- fendants, one of them is his brother Ryan, are charged with conspiring to impede Interior Department employees from doing their jobs during the 41-day occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. The occupation began shortly after a Jan. 2 rally in support of the Hammonds and it grew into a wider call for the government to relinquish control of the refuge and other Western lands. Bundy and his followers believe the federal govern- ment does not have a right to own land within a state, except for limited purposes, and only if it gets consent from the state and purchases the property. Though she allowed Bundy to describe his beliefs, U.S. District Court Judge Anna Brown limited “narra- tive lectures” on land policy saying it’s not relevant to the criminal case. Bundy’s attorney, Marcum Mumford, then questioned his client about the Bunkerville standoff. He played a video clip of his client getting shot three times with a stun gun as protesters clashed with federal agents near Cliven Bundy’s ranch. Mumford asked Bundy why he kept coming back for more after getting shocked by a Taser. “Their actions were way out of line, way out of line,” he said. The judge reminded jurors they were not deciding the merits of the Bunkerville standoff, only its effect on Bundy’s state of mind and if it played a role in his decision to occupy the federal land in Oregon. Mumford asked Bundy about such a connection. “It’s deinitely a piece of it,” Bundy said. Bundy and his father are both facing charges from the Bunkerville standoff and are scheduled to be tried in 2017. Bundy is expected to return to the witness stand Wednesday. WEDNESDAYS IN OCTOBER Bottle Wine Blowout 30 % OFF SELECTED BOTTLES SPECIAL PRICING ON GLASS POURS UNTIL GONE H AMLEY S TEAK H OUSE & S aloon Court & Main, Pendleton 541.278.1100 HILLSBORO (AP) — A woman who was beaten and raped by a juvenile offender during a super- vised group outing to a University of Oregon foot- ball game will receive a nearly $667,000 settlement from Washington County, the county said Tuesday in a statement. In announcing the settlement, Washington County offered its sympa- thies to the Eugene woman and said the agreement resolved all outstanding issues. The woman alleged in a February lawsuit that oficials failed to properly supervise Jaime Tinoco, a teenager who was on probation at the time for harassment, drug posses- sion and burglary. Tinoco, who was 17 at the time, traveled to the football game with the Wa s h i n g t o n County Juvenile Department in September 2014. He attacked the woman after the game near Autzen Stadium and was Tinoco sentenced to 14 years in prison last year. The assault happened several hours after Tinoco separated from the group and supervisory staff, the county said in Tuesday’s e-mail. As a result of the inci- dent, the county now limits community activities for juvenile offenders to volun- teer service, educational opportunities, life-skills training, cultural events and physical itness. Guidelines around supervision during community activi- ties have also been tightened. “ Wa s h i n g t o n County wishes to reiterate its deepest sympathies for the woman, her family and her loved ones in the aftermath of the outrageous acts of violence she experienced as a result of this incident,” the county said. Tinoco was charged last year in the stabbing death of Nicole Laube, 29, and is expected to go on trial in February 2017. Laube was stabbed once in the chest at a Cedar Mill apartment complex where she worked in August 2014. She died at the scene, but not before describing her attacker to a resident.
