The Citizens for Constitutional Freedom was a group of American Patriots who conducted a sit-in at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. They were arrested as a result of the ambush when LeVoy Finicum was killed by the government police. The C4CF members have been charged with violating 18 USC § 372. Their cases are still being adjudicated.
