Lion Heart 15,041 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 President Donald Trump on Friday pardoned former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, rewarding a vocal political supporter who was convicted of contempt of court for refusing to halt a policing tactic to catch undocumented immigrants. The controversial 85-year-old former Maricopa County sheriff, who lost re-election in 2016 after 23 years in office, was found guilty of criminal contempt in July for defying a federal judge's order to stop detaining people based on suspicion of their immigration status when there was no evidence that they had broken a state law. Facing up to six months in prison for the misdemeanor offense, Arpaio's lawyers had said he would appeal. The White House, however, issued this statement: Today, President Donald J. Trump granted a Presidential pardon to Joe Arpaio, former Sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona. Arpaio’s life and career, which began at the age of 18 when he enlisted in the military after the outbreak of the Korean War, exemplify selfless public service. After serving in the Army, Arpaio became a police officer in Washington, D.C. and Las Vegas, NV and later served as a Special Agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), formerly the Bureau of Narcotics. After 25 years of admirable service, Arpaio went on to lead the DEA’s branch in Arizona. In 1992, the problems facing his community pulled Arpaio out of retirement to return to law enforcement. He ran and won a campaign to become Sheriff of Maricopa County. Throughout his time as Sheriff, Arpaio continued his life’s work of protecting the public from the scourges of crime and illegal immigration. Sheriff Joe Arpaio is now eighty-five years old, and after more than fifty years of admirable service to our Nation, he is worthy candidate for a Presidential pardon. Trump's decision, while sure to be controversial, is not surprising: the president has repeatedly signaled his intention to pardon the Arizona sheriff. https://www.buzzfeed.com/davidmack/trump-pardons-arpaio?utm_term=.th6G3BvBq#.mh6zJplpy ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A racist cop who arrested Latinos just for the sake of being Latino. While he was looking for undocumented immigrants, he ordered his officers to arrest "all Latinos present" and then held them in "tent cities" in 100 degree heat with no access to phones, lawyers, etc. He's also the guy who led the "Birther movement" (Obama's birth certificate thing). ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it makes sense why Trump would pardon him, its just trash defending trash. Thanks for explaining. aphrodite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Veil 2,395 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 He has now, publically, made it acceptable for criminals to undermine our court system. Exile Trump to the tundra with no way of buying his way out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
