FBI admits no arrest warrant signed when Duane Ehmer was arrested, contrary to agent’s testimony

FBI agents admit in court papers that they had no arrest warrant at the time they took Duane Ehmer into custody at a checkpoint outside the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge on Jan. 27, 2016, contrary to an agent’s testimony earlier this week. It wasn’t until the day after Ehmer’s arrest that a federal magistrate judge signed a criminal complaint against Ehmer based on an FBI agent’s probable cause affidavit.
