(Ken Ritter | The Associated Press) Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, left, son Ryan Bundy, middle, and conservative activist attorney Larry Klayman talk to reporters in Las Vegas on Oct. 31 about a lawsuit Ryan Bundy has filed alleging malicious prosecution by U.S. government officials led to a dismissed criminal case stemming from a 2014 armed standoff with federal land agents. Three years before the 2014 armed standoff, the FBI made an assessment that Cliven Bundy personally was unlikely to be violent in the event of conflict, but it did consider him to be paranoid.
