DOI Secretary Tells Federal Employees to ‘Remain Vigiliant’ After Malheur Refuge Verdict

Fedsmith reports:

Department of Interior Secretary Sally Jewell sent a memo to all federal employees who work for her agency in which she said she was “profoundly disappointed” by the jury’s not guilty verdict in the Malheur Wildlife Refuge case announced this week.

“While we must respect the jury’s decision because we believe in the rule of law and our system of justice, I am profoundly disappointed in this outcome and am concerned about its potential implications for our employees and for the effective management of public lands,” wrote Jewell.

The Department of Interior "deals" with Jury Nullification.
