41-Day Standoff

  President Trump pardoned a father and son from Oregon on Tuesday
  who were imprisoned after setting fire to federal land during what
  were intended to be controlled burns. The imprisonment - which
  followed a multi-decade feud with the federal government, resulted
  in approximately 100-150 armed militia members taking control of a
  closed wildlife park headquarters in a 41-day standoff led by three
  brothers from the Cliven Bundy family. Read more about the case
  here.

  The resentencing sparked protests led by the cattle ranching Bundy
  family and others, who took up arms and occupied the Malheur
  National Wildlife Refuge near the Southeastern Oregon ranch owned
  by the Hammonds from Jan 2 to Febn 11, 2016. 

  During the standoff, FBI agent W. Joseph Astarita reportedly began
  firing off shots during the arrest of Robert "LaVoy" Finicum. The
  agent was later accused of falsely denying he fired the shots at
  Finicum or his truck, and pleaded not guilty to two counts of
  obstruction of justice and three counts of making a false
  statement. 

  Finicum was killed in the incident.

  “The Hammonds are multi-generation cattle ranchers in Oregon
  imprisoned in connection with a fire that leaked onto a small
  portion of neighboring public grazing land,” the White House said
  in a statement. “The evidence at trial regarding the Hammonds’
  responsibility for the fire was conflicting, and the jury acquitted
  them on most of the charges.”

  "Justice is overdue for Dwight and Steven Hammond, both of whom are
  entirely deserving of these Grants of Executive Clemency," the
  statement also reads. 

    Dwight has so far served about three years in prison and Steven
	has served about four years. They have also paid $400,000 to
	the United States to settle a related civil suit. -Fox News

  This marks Trump's 7th and 8th pardon or commutation since
  taking office - the first being Arizona sheriff Joseph Arpaio.
  Other recipients of a pardon or commutation include; "Scooter"
  Libby, Dinesh D'Souza, and Kristian Mark Saucier - a former US
  Navy sailor who was convicted of unauthorized retention of
  national defense information and sentenced to one year in
  prison for taking photographs of classified engineering areas
  of nuclear attack submarine USS Alexandria (SSN-757).
