(Trent Nelson | The Salt Lake Tribune) Cliven Bundy rides in a procession at the funeral for Robert "LaVoy" Finicum, in Kanab, Friday February 5, 2016. Finicum was shot and killed by police during a Jan. 26 traffic stop. Finicum was part of the armed occupation of an Oregon wildlife refuge. Fifteen years before Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy led an armed standoff against federal agents near his arid desert ranch, the devout Mormon combed through Latter-day Saints scripture and writings with his neighbor, another rancher upset about how the government regulates the public land around them.
