More FBI agents remain under investigation for Finicum shooting
By CONRAD WILSON
Oregon Public Broadcasting
FBI Special Agent W.
Joseph Astarita was arraigned
in federal court in Portland
this week for his role in the
shooting death of a leader in
last year’s Malheur National
Wildlife Refuge occupation.
But quickly passed over
in a post-arraignment press
conference Wednesday was
potentially more significant
news: Other members of the
FBI’s hostage rescue team
are still under investigation.
Officials
confirmed
to OPB on Thursday that
those investigations remain
ongoing.
Astarita faces five charges,
ranging from making false
statements to obstruction of
justice. A spokesperson for
the FBI said Thursday that
he is still with the agency and
serving in an “administrative
capacity.”
That
spokesperson
declined to elaborate further.
On Jan. 26, 2016, at least
five members of the FBI’s
elite hostage rescue team
assisted during the attempted
arrest of Arizona rancher
Robert “LaVoy” Finicum
and other occupation leaders
along a remote stretch of
Oregon highway between
Burns and John Day.
Finicum had served as
a spokesman for the refuge
occupiers.
Law enforcement officials
say Astarita fired two shots
during the arrest attempt.
“One of the gun shots
hit the roof of Finicum’s
pickup,” Deschutes County
Sheriff Shane Nelson said
Wednesday during a news
conference in Portland.
Astarita allegedly did not
disclose those shots to inves-
tigators following Finicum’s
death, which is the basis for
the charges against him. He
pleaded not guilty.
The FBI and investigating
law enforcement agencies
have declined to identify
the other four agents who
were on the scene. The FBI
spokesman also declined to
discuss whether they were
still members of HRT or, like
Astarita, had been moved to
an “administrative capacity.”
During
Wednesday’s
news conference, Nelson
said investigators not only
uncovered
the
alleged
actions of Astarita, but also
“the subsequent concerning
actions of some members
of the FBI hostage rescue
team.”
Nelson
said
again
Thursday that his office is
continuing its investigation
into the actions of the FBI
agents present during the
arrest attempt. But Nelson
wouldn’t say whether he
expected additional charges
to be filed.
“We’ll just go where the
evidence leads us,” he said.
More than a year ago,
Nelson traveled to Wash-
ington, D.C., to meet with
now acting FBI Director
Andrew McCabe and other
U.S. Department of Justice
officials to alert them of
“possible criminal conduct
by some involved FBI HRT
agents.”
About a month ago,
Nelson said he learned the
agents under investigation
were not placed on adminis-
trative leave.
“I don’t know that they’ve
ever been put on administra-
tive leave,” Nelson said in an
interview Thursday.
