Former MCSO Officer 04/08/2009 8:14:00 PM
Boy am I glad i don't work here anymore....I know over half of the eleven officers that escorted that man down the hallway also known as "the green mile" Ugh! I'm sure a defense attorney is gonna have a lot of fun bringing a wrongful death suit to maricopa county... I could bring up a shit load of issues wrong with the officers and the jail itself whether it be LBJ Intake/LBJ Medical Services/LBJ Custody...Think I'll end it here...

Good riddence! Another low life POS dealt with. These guys arn't in there for failing to help a little old lady across the street, they kill said lady.

I think it is time for this news paper to support TERM LIMITS for all elected officials, including sheriff. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Joanne Sullivan (aka Mrs. Arapio) has been hitting the holiday bottle a little early this year. Of course, hard drinking and even drugging is probably the best remedy for living in such close proximity to ol' Joe.

Yea Joe, keep murdering people, it's what the self rightous do. Who cares if it's not morally right. We the redneck racist appreciate what you do. When are you going to start killing the Jews, Germans and French, I hear their starting to move into Maricopa County too. Kill them all Joe, keep making us proud.
**Wow, I stand corrected. 3 people do care.
Keep up the good work, Joe!

Pity it doesn't happen to you or one of your family members, then I guess we'd see how much you don't care.
One can only hope.
>>LOL Does anyone really care?

Once again, Mr. Dickerson demonstrates a talent for investigative reporting. Thanks for this superior treatment of an important subject.
To the commenter who asked if anyone cares, and who suggested that the solution to the problem is to deport all illegals: First, the victim's naturalization status has nothing to do with questions of justice and police brutality; second, if you were a regular reader of Phoenix New Times, you would by now be familiar with a long list of similarly brutal deaths and cover-ups by the MCSO, many of them involving U.S. citizens.
If an American partying in some Mexican resort town committed DUI, and after being arrested was brutally abused in this fashion by jail guards and died as a result, and the Mexican authorities subsequently tried to justify the death while concealing video evidence, you'd be screaming about how corrupt the Mexican legal system is.

Mr. Dickerson has a talent for investigative reporting; thanks for another superior treatment of an important subject.
In response to the commenter who asked if anyone cares, and claimed that the answer to the problem is deporting all illegals: First, just what does the victim's naturalization status have to do with the question of justice and police brutality; and second, if you'd been reading Phoenix New Times you would be familiar by now with a long list of similarly brutal deaths and cover-ups by the MCSO, many of them involving U.S. citizens.
If this was an American who had committed DUI one night after partying in some Mexican resort town, and been killed this way ("homicide" seems the only appropriate term), presumably you would be screaming about how corrupt the Mexican legal system is.

LOL Does anyone really care? Deport ALL illegals and this won't happen. Easy. Problem solved.

You really are an ass, Joanne and a really stupid one at that!
Joe will go down in flames one day. I hope he takes a big bunch of his thugs with him. This is America and I believe in it, in the end. He will get his and I really don't care how painful it is for him. His big thing is, "Nobody is above the law." He of course, is referring to a bunch of peon illegals. It alludes him and his supporters that murder is illegal. You take one man in shackles and pile on 11 or more guards. The man dies. How is that not murder? And now that he has all that political "capital," he will be worse than in the past. Why do people tollerate this?This is AMERICA, for God's sake!

Time for Joe and his guards to face the music. These are clear violations of human rights. Just the things Joe likes to brag about. Well sent the son of a bitch to jail along with all his scum sucking thugs. They are murderers and deserve life at a minimum, but this is actually state sponsored murder and Joe and his gang of thugs should be arrested and slammed into the state prison, for their own protection you understand. They wouldn't last a minute in their own jail. The Attorney General had better get off his ass and summon a grand jury over this blatant criminal conduct! If he doesn't he needs to be impeached!

Joanne Sullivan 11/20/2008 5:50:00 PM
Twas the night before election, and all through the county
The sabanites scurried to shore up their bounty.
With the race all but over, and the kleenex all used
There's nothing much left but to buy some booze.
The whole staff piled in to the smart car all painted,
but one glance at the fuel gauge and poor Dan fainted.
"I was weak as a child", Saban explained,
"besides I've a plan, so hop on my train!"
One last stop to fill up, Saban shouted with glee,
as he charged one last tank to the campaign finance-ee.
Off to the wal mart for some mad dog 20-20,
it was all they had, after buying protests aplenty.
With a buzz and a headache, the crew turned in for the night
Dreams of firings, and pay backs, and fame felt so right.
But the sun did come up, much too fast for our hero
Because in the real world, he's still just a zero.
"I was wronged, outspent, felonies were committed!"
But sadly the truth is that he was outwitted.
Recall! came the shouts from his staff of two,
But alas, no one signs against Arpaio, oh poo.
With nothing left to do but relive the wasted weeks,
Dan said "lets get our towels so we can trade peeks!"
Some cheer returned as they formed in a circle
That Dan, you know, is one super good jerkle!

this, along with the video, pretty much sums it up..ill give them some time to see what they are doing with the grand jury, but it better be something Grand..like all involved charged with one crime or another...i can count at least 4 different charges they could charge them with.....and they arrested and tried lovejoy and pochoda on much, much less....

is this in america? 11/20/2008 2:49:00 PM
this is too hard to read, but I see where detectives are questioning the guards. Please post the NAMES of the detectives. As too many go along with joker because of the way he retaliates against them . Im sure their report will be biased, and just a dog and pony show, that they are doing something to correct it . We need their names to have them personally accountable. Just like the Courtney Bisbee case it was Det CHRISTOPHER KINDER out of Scottsdale who was a large part of the problem , and it snowballed from there.
no one will act til it happens to one of their own.

Jim Cozzolino 11/20/2008 2:09:00 PM
Fucking Arpaio and his Monkey's are nothing but animals.
There is no justice in Maricopa County, only death and destruction by the hands of Arpaio and his Monkey's time and time again with all the same usual cover ups.
Only in Maricopa County do these scum get away with murder time and time again.
4 more years of this shit, God help us.

This doesn't look good for the officers but you can't blame this incident on less lethal weapons like pepperball. One can argue that officers are not properly trained.
