Las Vegas Now: Government takes family's land near Area 51
Private land overlooking the secret base at Area 51 has officially been taken from the owners and transferred to the United States Air Force.
Last month, the U.S. Air Force condemned the Groom Mine property when the family who owns it rejected a government buyout they felt was unjust.
The I-Team broke the story of the family's fight with the government.
The Sheahan family, which until now owned the mine, knew they faced an uphill fight. They also expected the government would probably take the land through eminent domain even though the Sheahan's owned it since Abe Lincoln was in the White House.
Update: Property Owners Next Door To Area 51 Are Facing A Deadline To Sell (Updated)
WNU Editor: This was a losing battle for the property owners, and if they fight it they will still lose with the lawyers being the eventual winners.
