Dy’er Sez: After all that has happened, including potential contempt of court charges against ‘capt’ Michael for not turning over documents ordered by the AG, this seems like a complete travesty of justice.
My gut feeling is that someone with some power or money pressured the AG to drop this case.

Montana AG Drops Jail Investigation
MATTHEW BROWN, Associated Press Writer
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) ― Montana Attorney General Steve Bullock has dropped his investigation into a California company following its attempted takeover of an empty Montana jail.
The company, American Police Force, had missed a Monday deadline to provide documents sought by Bullock’s office after revelations that company founder Michael Hilton had a lengthy criminal background.
But because American Police Force has pulled out of its bid to take over the 464-bed jail in rural Hardin, Bullock said Tuesday he was ending the investigation.
