Spencer Hutchings, a candidate for the State House, was the one who advocated making machine guns generally available.

The Fifth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States guarantees rights to the accused. In my upcoming proceeding, on Tuesday, Sept. 19, the same BCRCC members who regularly attend and disrupt the Bonner County business meetings — Dan Rose and Spencer Hutchings, to name two — get to file allegations and then sit on the jury. Is this a new form of justice, where members of a private organization get to be disruptors, victims, judge, jury and executioner all under the banner of a private organization?

A relatively quiet meeting was disrupted when resident and state representative candidate Spencer Hutchings walked to the front of the room while others were giving public comments, demanding to be allowed to speak. When Hutchings refused to return to his seat, it forced a recess to be called until he complied. Hutchings had been attending most of the meeting via Zoom, with his virtual hand raised, requesting to speak. Commissioner Luke Omodt, the current chair of the board, typically allows residents who have shown up in person to speak first, then moves on to those who have signed up via Zoom.
