An Idaho anti-government cult hero is about to see the inside of a jail cell again.
The plaintiffs since alleged that Bundy, Rodriguez and their followers have continued to attack and harass witnesses who testified in the July trial. The plaintiffs asked that Bundy be held in contempt for violating a court order to stop harassing those involved in the case, according to court documents.
Fourth District Judge Nancy Baskin had set Monday as the day of both an arraignment on additional contempt charges and the first day of trial for previous contempt charges.
Bundy failed to appear, and Baskin said she would issue a warrant for his arrest with bail set at $250,000, St. Luke’s attorney Erik Stidham told the Idaho Statesman.
“Today, he had an opportunity to present evidence, testify under oath, cross-examine witnesses, and defend himself against those charges,” Stidham said in an emailed statement to the Statesman. “Instead, Mr. Bundy ran from that opportunity, just as he has fled from every such opportunity before in the litigation.”
Good fuck these guys. Leeches off federal land.
