Although only one gravesite was lost in the initial slide that followed torren- tial rain two weeks ago, others are close to the unstable area. A reporter who visited the scene Jan. 28 morning saw little evidence of addi- tional damage as a result of heavy rain a day earlier, but noted a zone close to the edge that appeared to be sinking. Feds bolster security at wildlife preserves By TERRENCE PETTY Associated Press PORTLAND — The government has beefed up security at national wild- life refuges in states south of Oregon as an armed standoff over federal land policy has created tensions in the region and shows no sign of ending soon. Additional security of¿- cers were sent to preserves in southern Oregon, Northern California and Nevada as four occupiers remain holed up at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and say they will not leave without assurances they won’t be arrested. ³No speci¿c threats or incidents have occurred, but we remain vigilant to ensure employee and visitor safety throughout the region,” Jody Holzworth, a Sacramen- Molly Young/The Oregonian A sign is displayed with the picture of LaVoy Finicum as part of the demonstrations outside the Harney County Court- house in Burns, Monday.

As the holdouts drag out the occupation, a federal grand jury indicted standoff leader Ammon Bundy and 10 others who have already been arrested. Assistant U.S. Attorney Geoff Barrow said Wednesday that the indictment also includes “others,” perhaps a reference to the remaining occupiers. The 11 face a conspiracy charge of using intimidation to prevent federal of¿cers from doing their work at the refuge, which is in a sparsely populated area of southeastern Oregon. The occupation began Jan. 2, with Bundy and his followers demanding the federal govern- ment turn public lands over to local control. After his arrest during a traf¿c stop late last month, he repeatedly has called on the holdouts to go home to avoid bloodshed.
