Judge Allows Bundy Brothers to Be Reunited at Oregon Jail

By STEVEN DUBOIS, ASSOCIATED PRESS PORTLAND, Ore. — Jul 11, 2016, 5:22 PM ET

Ammon and Ryan Bundy will be reunited at a downtown Portland jail as they prepare their defense on charges related to the armed occupation of an Oregon bird sanctuary, a judge ruled Monday.

The men were recently separated, with Ammon Bundy shipped to a jail in northeast Portland.

On Monday, U.S. District Court Judge Robert Jones granted Ryan Bundy's request to have the brothers housed in the same jail ahead of a September trial.

Jail officials prefer to have co-defendants separated, but the judge said this is "an exceptional case and an exceptional relationship." He did not elaborate on his decision.

1. The judge needs to explain why these criminals are being given special treatment.

Calling it exceptional isn't good enough.

What this makes me wonder about is the JUDGE!
