Judy Boyle speak to reporters outside the Malheur Wildlife Refuge during the standoff near Burns, Ore., Thursday, Feb. 11, 2016. The end of a nearly six-week-long standoff at an Oregon wildlife refuge played out live on the internet, with tens of thousands of people listening as supporters encouraged the last armed occupiers to surrender. The holdouts surrendered Thursday, having refused to leave the refuge after the group's leaders were arrested last month. Betsy Russell story here. (AP / Rebecca Boone)
