Among other things, the Phoenix-based libertarian think tank calls for the incoming U.S. attorney to investigate the sheriff's jails and for the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to "regularly and carefully" audit the sheriff's c

    Paul Chagolla, a deputy chief for Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, claims in an open letter published in the Arizona Republic that his office does enough work serving felony warrants, and that critics on the subject are advocates of illegal immigration. It's difficult for us to believe nearly anything coming from this guy's keyboard. As a public information officer, his job was as much to hide information as release it. Late last month, we told you about how he released jail statistics t

    Clint BolickThe Maricopa County Sheriff's Office arrested suspects in less than five percent of its cases in 2007, the Goldwater Institute says -- a shockingly low statistic that contradicts what the Sheriff's Office has long officially maintained.The statistics, which the Goldwater Institute obtained through a public records request, show that the Sheriff's Office cleared just 4.68 percent of its cases by arresting a suspect in 2007.
