The execution of LaVoy Finicum, one of the rancher leaders at the Oregon wildlife refuge occupation earlier this year, is being played over and over by law enforcement, determined to convince the “lying eyes” of those watching video of the event that what they see is actually not what they see. There is a secondary question of whether FBI agents fired their weapons, or whether it was only trigger-happy state troopers who were firing at the truck and Finicum.
A video of the shooting without sound was released to the public early on, but a second video taken by friends and family of Finicum, including children, who were in the truck with him has now been released with a sound track. You can hear the verbal exchanges between Finicum and the officers as he calls to them from inside the truck. Finicum states that he is going to the next town to meet with the sheriff. That was not to be as law enforcement vehicles blocked the road and Finicum was forced into a snow bank at the side of the highway.
New video below raises new questions from critics, page 2:
First of all he didn’t reach for a gun. He was shot. They knew what they were doing, that’s why they were hiding in the trees. He reached for the bullet wound and you would have too if you were shot. More importantly they fired on the vehicle multiple times and weather you want to admit it or not, at that point he had every right to shoot back but he didn’t…
Your story sounds good, too, but you were my there making decisions that were pre planned. This was an ambush, premeditated murder.
They were told to do this and nothing will happen he was a American and our government doesn’t care about American people
Aren’t you proud of your country after watching this , I’m not and the FBI is going to investigate themselves how STUPID !!!
I lay money Reid had somethings to do with it
USA enemies are not treated this way.
He had his hands out Palm forward, why did they fire? Sure looks like a murder to me.
you can clearly hear a shot when he reached down. As if he was grabbing himself where he was shot. The government officials and their sub-standard video equipment knew there would be no sound…so…they could easily make it appear as though he was reaching for somthing. They didn’t anticipate the cell phone video.
Oregon Governor helped pre plan all this, with FBI and BLM, dont forget . Do Oregon citizens care??????
Where is the media coverage? American rancher is shot and its as if it never happened
