corrupt sherifs in early american west?

[nix-j-c]

i know that there were corrupt sheriffs from early american west settlements but i'm finding it difficult to look them up. does anyone know of any?

[vulcan]

In Wikipedia there is a "list of western lawmen".
unfortunately they don't have information on the ones marked in red and doesn't say if the rest are good or bad.
however it might be a starting point to track them down.
