Work together like a team. A combination designed to help improve your babys skin barrier while you stimulate his senses. Johnsons. So much more. Seconds. Good evening. Tonight, a deadly turn of events sparking even more distrust between the fbi and a group of angry militia men in rural oregon. One rancher killed and conflicting eyewitness accounts adding fuel to the fire in the nearly monthlong armed standoff. Tonight questions about how this will end. Heres abcs Neal Karlinsky. Reporter authorities said it was supposed to be a careful and peaceful traffic stop. But instead it ended in the shooting death of robert lavoy militia spokesman. A takedown that left the leaders of his group handcuffed on the ground. Tonight the scene has turned into a rallying cry for the armed occupiers at a remote wildlife refuge here who took over this land in early january. Theyre calling lavoy a hero in the patriot movement. His picture now spreading online. Wrongfully taken out, they say, by overly aggressive Law Enforcement. I believe Lavoy Finicum was murdered. Reporter the fbi and local police wont explain how it all happened or even name finnicum as the man killed by police gunfire. Im disappointed that a traffic stop yesterday, it was supposed to bring peaceful resolution to this ended badly. Reporter but one alleged eyewitness says he was just walking with his hands in the air. Hes like, just shoot me, then, just shoot me and they did, they shot him dead. Reporter in an audio interview posted to youtube, victoria sharp, seen here in earlier this month at the refuge, says she was in the car with finicum when it all went down. He was just walking. With his hands in the air, i saw it. I swear to god. Then after he was down on the ground, shot him three more times. Like so much about the bizarre occupation, the story is not so clear. Another alleged witness said finicum wasnt executed he charged at Law Enforcement. He was not on his knees, none of that nonsense. That was a miscommunication. Reporter one of the occupiers, pete santilly, live streamed his approach to the fbi blockade after he heard shots had been fired. If theyve taken ammon into custody, its time for theres women and children up there, okay . Theres women and children. We need to go get them out. Reporter he was then taken into custody. Theyre surrounding us. Theres no firearms in the car, please dont aim the rifle sir, no ones aiming a rifle sir, i ask you to move back. This is a perimeter now, i need you to move back. Reporter from the beginning police found this strange standoff challenging, fearing a bloodbath if they moved in too quick. Any time you have people dug in that are armed and that they are making certain demands and saying theyre not going to leave until they get those demands youve set up a dynamic where theres a potential for is there a way to back out of that . Reporter while we still dont know the details of the deadly traffic stop, finicum himself almost seemed to predict tensions were about to escalate. In an interview just posted by the oregonian by youtube. The tenor has changed. They have become more hardened. Theyre doing all the things that shows that they want to take some kinetic action against us. They do not intend on losing here. And we do not intend giving it back to them. Reporter but tonight the areas on lockdown, now sealed off by heavily armed fbi eight miles out. As we found out when approaching. You need to go back out and stay outside that sign, please. Okay, will do. Well, those guys meant business. Reporter in all, eight key members of the occupation are under arrest, facing a federal charge of conspiracy to impede u. S. Officers by use of force. Ammon bundy, the leader of the occupation, is among those now in fbi custody. In a surprise move his lawyer called for an end to the standoff. Right now im asking the federal government to allow the people at the refuge to go home without being prosecuted. Reporter words he says bundy wanted him to share. To those remaining at the refuge, i love you. Let us take this fight from here. Please stand down. Reporter but the circumstances of finicums death could be making the occupiers nervous. They told us that we could safely leave. Well the group that was it depends on what you believe. Reporter the standoff began in early january when several dozen militia men, led by bundy and finicum, took over the remote refuge when no one was there. This refuge here is rightfully owned by the people. And we intend to use it. Reporter bundy said his group was fighting for the return of thousands of square miles of federal land to ranchers like him and fighting for freedom for two other ranchers convicted of lighting fires on federal land. Im going to jail for five years for 127. Seems like a bit of an overkill. Reporter when we first visited the compound, despite the fact that many were armed, it was seemingly peaceful and Law Enforcement was keeping their distance. This is the sanctuary theyve taken over. You can see their guard tower in the distance over there. And here you really dont see a lot of presence at all. And they have gasoline, actually, fuel pumps for their vehicles. Militia members slept on. A woman preparing meals. At the time, ranchers were pleading for others to join their cause. We need you to get here and stand with us. Whether youre armed or unarmed, get up here. Reporter finicum, a grandfather of 19, traveled here from arizona and said he was from a long line of ranchers. Their livelihood is being threatened, their economic ability to ranch is being squeezed, and theyre being squeezed out. Their way of life, generational. Get down now reporter lavoy had been in trouble with supports before, joining Rancher Cliven Bundy in a 2014 faceoff with federal agents over cattle grazing rights. Back off reporter when i met him, he told me he was willing to die for the cause. How did we get here in the first place . Was there not people who gave their life to us . Was it not a great gift, a great sacrifice . It certainly was. You love your wife, you love your kids, you give them a hug. And if i see them on the flip side. Reporter today theres growing concern that finicum will become a martyr for extremist groups. Many of his supporters voicing their anger all over the internet. Nevada Assembly Member Michelle Fiore tweeted her support, referring to his death as murder. My heart and prayers go out to Lavoy Finicums family. He was just murdered with his hands up in burns, oregon. Ryan bundy has been shot in the arm. The comes days may be critical in how all this gets resolved. I think what the government does not want to do is get into an Excessive Force situation. Where they basically raid this refuge and physically remove people who are armed, who may well try to shoot at them, which will probably result in them getting shot. Reporter reports tonight that only a handful remain and they are being encouraged by nearby patriot groups to end the siege. The sheriff made it clear today that their time is up. Its time for everybody in this illegal occupation to move we dont arm up and rebel. This cant happen anymore. This cant happen in america and it cantar county.

Weve all had undignified moments were not particularly proud of. But imagine your most egregious lapse of judgment not only caught on tape but going viral. Tonight were hearing from the young florida doctor who was assaulting an uber driver. After all the backlash the question is, does the punishment fit the crime . Madam call 911. Reporter its the drunken meltdown seen round the world millions of times over. Seriously . Yeah, seriously, get some help. Reporter this is dr. Angeli ramkasun, a fourthyear neurology student from florida, in the midst of what she says is an intoxicated temper tantrum while trying to hijack someone elses uber. Its the latest humiliating moment gone viral. Im a 5foot girl that weighs 100 pounds. Im getting really belligerent right now. Reporter turning her into the internets latest villain. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. Ive received death threats. I received messages, people telling me, you should kill yourself, you dont deserve to multiple messages saying, you should have been raped that night. [ bleep ] in the car reporter she sat down exclusively with abc news and admits she was having a bad night. When you watch the video what goes through your mind . That person in that video is not me. Im embarrassed. Im so ashamed. Theres a big difference between an excuse and an explanation. Yeah. What explains what happened . I was very upset. My father was actually placed in the hospital. I just recently broke up with a boyfriend. Literally that evening . Minutes prior to. And thats why i decided to leave my car there. Id taken a couple of drinks and i was trying to catch an uber to get home. Reporter the driver, igor bellic, speaking to wtvj. She was erratic, she was like screaming, cursing. Reporter he waits for police to arrive. Good night reporter thats when angeli says she started tearfully i apologized that night to him after we settled and i paid him for the damages. He accepted my apology and i was very grateful he didnt press any charges. A lot of people are saying because he didnt press charges that youre getting away with it. I dont believe that i got away with it. It was his idea, okay, if you pay me for the damages, everything will be fine. I had no further problems with him that night. Reporter but once the video started exploding on the internet, the judge and juries on social media began weighing in. Calling her an arrogant drunk little brat that should be charged with assault and should not be practicing medicine. Her employer, Jackson Health system, put her on administrative leave pending an investigation. I think that theres a lot of pressure on employers when their employees act bad in public. Reporter Crisis Management guru Howard Bragman says our worst moments, if made public, are now fodder for collective schadenfreude. This poor girl had a bad day and shes going to pay the price. Should consider yourselves lucky we didnt get caught when talking to someone this way. Reporter getting caught in todays social media frenzy can result in brutal public shaming. Its been horrible. My family, first of all, has been targeted. Our home address was released. And people were showing up to the house. People were sending packages to the house. Reporter many critics online assumed shes a bratty rich girl acting out. But her younger sister says that couldnt be further from the truth. Theyre calling her spoiled, entitled. And rich. And my dad is a truck driver. Used to be a truck driver. Hes now disabled and he doesnt work. My mom was a secretary. Whats it like watching her go through all this . It hurts me. It hurts me for everyone involved. Obviously alcohol was involved. Yes. Do you think you have a problem with alcohol . I dont think i have a problem with alcohol. I just think it was a horrible night for me. For some people when they drink, theyre not able to hold back their inner primitive impulses. Alcoholfueled rage. Its not uncommon for customers to seem to pick on people they expect service from. Theres no cheese reporter like this Testy Exchange at a wendys. I want and i want it fast do you feel good about your job . Reporter espn reporter Brett Mchenry suspended a week after her snide comments to a tow truck clerk caused a sensation. I could be a College Dropout and do the same thing . Reporter she later tweeted, i am so sorry for my actions and will learn from this mistake. She still works at espn. During times of stress and duress, nobody wants to be told no. Nobody wants to be told that they need to follow a rule that doesnt work for them. Reporter ramkissoon isnt the first person caught behaving badly with uber drivers. When benjamin golden, a taco bell executive, was too drunk to give proper directions, his uber driver asked him to get out. Sir, get out of my car or i will call the police. Reporter thats when golden responded with this. In jail. His lawyers said it was an isolated incident. He went on a televised apology tour you know, im not that person. Reporter but he still lost his job. Golden is countersuing the driver for 5 million, saying the driver recorded him illegally. As for ramkissoon, uber suspended her account saying, uber expects everyone in our community to treat each other with respect and common courtesy and we have a zero tolerance policy for any form of harassment or abuse. My rating was five stars, id never had any problems. What was your reaction . Uber suspended your account. Its upsetting. I really like uber. Reporter shes taking the larger lesson to heart. Will you keep drinking . No. After seeing that . Just the thought of alcohol gives me ptsd at this point. I dont even want to look at it. I dont want to touch it. No. Reporter a sobering thought for all of us. If the driver walked in right now, what would you say to him . I would say that im so incredibly sorry. Character for me. Im ashamed of what i did to you. Up next, pressures piling up in the political arena after trumps boycott announcement. Its not about hugging trees. Its not about being wasteful either.
