Bombs, Taxes, and Red Crayons.
Zoe the Dog was on the porch as well and the witness was feeding her pizza. Once he felt that they were positioned appropriately (he sat between Ed and Elaine close to Ed’s gun arm), he used the code word “party” in conversation and both of the Browns were grabbed, tasered, and handcuffed.
Ed put up a fight and warned the Marshals, “You don’t know what you’ve done.” Elaine became very animated and was yelling profanities.
The jury was then shown a brief video of the scene taken just after the arrest. Dutch’s face is blurred out, and Zoe the Dog darts into the house in fear when Ed tries to talk her while he’s standing handcuffed. A minute later, she’s seen stealing a pizza slice and running.
That sounds like a clear-cut case of petit theft to me. Book ‘em, Dano! 
What are the chances that Zoe the Dog’s theft would be caught on tape, then the tape played as evidence in a federal trial? LOL
Anyhoo, head on over to Bombs, Taxes, and Red Crayons at the above link, and check out JJ MacNab’s latest humorous (and not so humorous) report on the trial of Ed and Elaine Brown, who were involved in a nine-month armed standoff against US Marshals.
Zoe is not just a dog.
She is an allegory for all of E&E’s faithful followers and the level of support they give E&E as soon as things start to get nasty.
At least, Zoe has found a new, good home sans brainwashing plus pizza.
NIKKI!! How the heck are you doing, ol’ buddy ol’ pal?
