This one really stirred me up. I respect cultural resources protection but definitely have mixed feelings about heavy handed law enforcement.
The article also is interesting due to it's mixed media presentation which includes actual surveillance footage taken with a hidden camera worn by an informant...

Thanks for the article and video....I remember being in Blanding 2 weeks after the raid. I could tell something was up...Until there is a penalty for this; it will continue...No one went to jail? Really?
No, they just comitted suicide instead...did you bother to read the article?Quote:

A great read but very tragic!
That's a funny liner about not a funny matter....yeah, I know the outcomes. There was more than one person involved. I support the Feds cracking down, but don't bother if they aren't going to press for jail time!

I really don't like the looting. But I'm disturbed by the damage done to the people in the sting and community too. Rural UT already has its issues with the federal government, as a generalization. This only hurt things more.
