Ammon Bundy Supporters to Protest in Idaho on Wednesday Over His Arrest
Supporters of Ammon Bundy are planning to protest at both the courthouse and the jail where he is being detained on Wednesday morning.
Bundy and his friend Aaron Schmidt were arrested on Monday after refusing to wear a mask into an Idaho courthouse. He was subsequently denied entry into his own trial.
Bundy was due in court over misdemeanor trespassing and resisting arrest charges stemming from an August protest at the Idaho Statehouse.
“In August, Bundy and two others refused to leave the statehouse after a hearing was switched to another part of the building. When Bundy refused to get up from his swivel chair, state police rolled him out,” according to a report from NBC News.
