The first of three trials continues Tuesday against armed protesters accused of conspiracy in a 2014 standoff with federal officials in Bunkerville, Nevada. The standoff was led by cattle rancher Cliven Bundy, who was confronted by the Bureau of Land Management after he refused to pay more than $1 million in federal grazing fees.
