Now there's a name that hasn't been in the news for awhile.

Last I remember he lost his bid for governor of Idaho.

Now he has accused a Boise hospital, its CEO, a doctor and a nurse practitioner of malpractice of a grandchild of a friend. They sued him (and the grandfather of the child and some other entities) for an ongoing campaign of intimidation, harassment and disinformation. The jury entered a default judgement since he didn't appear in court of $26 million in compensatory and punitive damages against him and a couple of his enterprises. The grandfather and his entities were also hit with $26 million in damages.

Bundy, of course, pleads poor mouth. Says he can't pay as the legal battle had forced him to “liquidate all my assets except a few.”

And, also of course, he shows no change in his declarations posting on Twitter after the verdict “People in a jury deciding how much St. Luke’s is going to take from those who exposed the truth about them is a mockery to justice."

If you are unfamiliar with his past or need a refresher, a lot of it is here:

I was thinking about him yesterday, remembering my favorite Gadsden flag

What did he get arrested for? Simple nonpayment of a civil judgment is not grounds for arrest in the USA-at least not since the Civil War (13th Amendment).
 
This dude is a complete piece of shit she should've been in jail a long time ago for multiple reasons. I don't really like the idea of a hospital being able to sue an individual for millions for slander, though. However, it sounds like he did a lot more than bash their standard of care, which probably makes this a reasonable exception.

Not to mention he repeatedly refused to show up in court to defend himself. In the US if you deliberately choose not to respond to a lawsuit eventually the judge can rule you automatically lose, which seems fair.

Yep, he sure did.

The lawsuit is in response to what the health system calls a "smear campaign" consisting of harassment, false statements, and trespassing. St. Luke's claims the defendants incited a protest at a hospital in Boise, resulting in a lockdown that interfered with patient care and diverted ambulances.
 
Most people believe what they are told is safe to believe. Other people believe what they think is right to believe. Sometimes the desire to know what is right can lead to realization that is neither belief or doubt.
