Every once in a while the all-powerful corrupt tax-payer-funded deep-pockets government is handed a defeat... kind of a miracle really.
Nevada judge dismisses case against Cliven Bundy and sons, says government cannot retry themhttp://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-bundy-mistrial-2018-story.htmlExcerpts:
A federal judge ruled Monday that the federal government may not retry Cliven Bundy and his sons after rebuking prosecutors for withholding evidence during their felony trial stemming from an armed standoff four years ago.
U.S. District Court Judge Gloria Navarro declared a mistrial in the case last month, saying federal prosecutors willfully withheld evidence that lawyers for the Bundys and alleged co-conspirator Ryan Payne should have had access to while mounting their defense.
She said the attorneys were in violation of the Brady rule, which requires prosecutors to disclose evidence that could be favorable to a defendant, and told them it wasn’t possible to proceed with the case.
On Monday, she dismissed the case “with prejudice,” meaning the government cannot retry the defendants. "The court finds that the universal sense of justice has been violated," Navarro said.

I'm not going to copy and paste the lies of the government attorneys about the lack of revealing discovery. It's pathetic. It's disgusting. Obviously the judge saw it as clear "prosecutorial misconduct". If only those prosecutors would be prosecuted!
