I think it’d make a great reality TV series (EPA-SWAT). Toss in a couple of nutcase wannabe cops to play EPA agents, a couple of Alaskan Indians, some hippies, a couple of hardcore miners, some meth guys, and a bartender. Discovery would make millions off the pretend-to-be-EPA series.
The EPA goons thought this up as an excuse to take a paid vacay to AK and get a little fishing in. Bet on it.
Someone should dig deep and find out how long the members of this “team” where up there, how they got there and where they stayed, before and after their Chicken coup.
