http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/feb/11/cliven-bundy-arrested-charges-oregon-milita-standoff<snip>
Bundy had left Nevada on Wednesday evening to travel to Oregon after learning that the FBI was moving to end the Malheur occupation. Though his son Ammon had pleaded with the final standouts to surrender, Cliven Bundy remained intransigent, telling the Guardian that he was taking control of things.
Oregon militia standoff: dramatic final surrender at wildlife refuge as it happened
Four remaining occupiers safely surrender to FBI after tense, hours-long negotiations that were broadcast live on YouTube
I dont know whether Ill be a negotiator or maybe a demander, he told the Guardian by phone on Wednesday night, as he prepared to travel to Oregon. I hope I save some lives, for one thing.
Briana Bundy, wife of Clivens son Mel Bundy, criticized federal prosecutors for going after the family patriarch for a standoff that happened in 2014. If they have something to charge him with, why didnt they do it two years ago? she said, adding of the accusations. They are all bogus, and its nonsense.
Briana said the governments case was weak. Its their job to prove guilt, not our job to prove innocence. The family was trying to figure out what their next step would be, Briana continued. Were stressed out and we have a lot of things to get accomplished, she said, adding: Were planning on staying the course.

Briana - buy a clue please

Anyone have a list of their names? I'll bet there are a lot of "Darryls" in it.
