FILE - In this Jan. 6, 2016 file photo, Harney County Sheriff David Ward arrives at a community meeting at the Harney County fairgrounds in Burns, Ore. The contrasting actions of two rural Oregon sheriffs during the recent armed standoff at a national wildlife refuge were striking: one worked with federal officials to end the siege while another questioned the FBI’s authority and offered words of support for the ragtag group that seized property in the state’s high desert country. Ward, whose jurisdiction includes the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, cooperated with federal and state police and became one of the public faces of the standoff. He urged standoff leader Ammon Bundy and his followers to stand down and respect the law. (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer, File)
