With latest payout, Arizona sheriff has cost taxpayers $100m

Nearly five years after Joe Arpaio was voted out as sheriff of Arizona’s most populous county, taxpayers are covering one of the last major bills from the thousands of lawsuits the lawman’s headline-grabbing tactics inspired

Sheriff Joe Arpaio continues to cost Arizona taxpayers millions as new settlement reached in lawsuit

In January of 2014, Arizona restaurant owner Bret Frimmel and manager Lisa Norton were arrested by law enforcement from Maricopa County Sheriff’s office on employment-related identity theft charges. Those charges were thrown out of court after a judge...

An important thing to always keep in mind about people like Joe Arpaio is that, at their core, they are true cowards, terrified of real strength, and must always bully and abuse power to hide that fact. This, coupled with an oversized ego and an underdeveloped emotional inner world, leads to a delusional narcissism that cannot face the results his destructive racism and pig-headed corruption have brought him.


That sums things up very well.

As an aside I've often compared Trump to a 12 year old........ I believe this is an apt description. An underdeveloped emotionally inner world.

Sounds like well funded lefties are abusing the legal system to wage war on the People of Arizona, for not bowing down to their PC tyranny.

The people who shoulder the blame for these massive payouts are those who file the lawsuits...

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

The commie left is suing and getting settlements, THEN complaining about the money they are taking.

How......Hitler-like.

Hmmm did he ever point a gun at someone and kill them? If so he would never have been charged in the first place right?

The fact that the liberal regime in Maricopa County has decided to make "settlements" with all of these people doesn't say anything negative about Sheriff Joe at all.

They are CHOOSING to make these payoffs to Arpaio's supposed victims, they aren't being ordered to do so.

You might have a point if lawsuits were filed and judgments rendered after the government waged a vigorous defense.

But that is NOT what happened.

They offer no defense as there is no defense to offer in court.

Leftards file the cases, leftards agree and pay out. Then leftards pretend it is the sheriffs fault.

The courts ruled it was the sheriff's fault. He was found guilty, remember?

Hilarious. The Sherriff is supposed to uphold the law and not break it. Do you have an offence of abusing your public office ?

The court made no such ruling.

These were settlements where the defendant and the leftist politicians agreed that it was Arpaio's fault.

Sheriff Joe wasn't found guilty at all here. And he wasn't given an opportunity to defend himself either as he wasn't being held personally responsible.

The leftist politicians just made a payoff of taxpayer's money.

Sheriff Joe was later exonerated of those charges by President Trump. But its irrelevant, as these settlements weren't made for "contempt".

LOL, don't you feel even a little silly here? Not even a little? LOL

What if I told you the settlement was because Arpaio’s office had executed a search warrant based on lies and omissions?

You should look into the case that the settlement was over.

Turns out Arpaio’s goons were lying on warrants. Remind me how y’all feel about that?

Just like with Breonna Taylor it all depends on who they were lying about it generally seems.
