In a statement, Ammon Bundy described Finicum as his “beloved friend” and one of “the greatest men and greatest patriots.”
At a press conference, federal and local law enforcement officials placed responsibility for the confrontation with the occupiers. FBI Special Agent Greg Bretzing blamed the “actions and choices of the armed occupiers” for the situation, commenting that “actions are not without consequences.”
