Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz., is well-known as one of the toughest law enforcement officials in the nation, especially when it comes to enforcing laws against illegal immigration.
The sheriff is even suing the Obama administration
over its plans to change immigration law unilaterally, effectively
granting a form of amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants, which
Sheriff Joe said would make his job much harder.
But it looks like Sheriff Joe may have found himself on the wrong
side of the law for a change, as he has admitted to violating a federal
court order related to a racial profiling case.
Lawyers for both the sheriff and his top aide have agreed that the
two men have committed civil contempt by violating the court order.
They are asking the judge in the case to cancel hearings scheduled for next month that would examine the violations.
According to Newsmax,
Sheriff Joe violated a federal court order that prohibited him from
stopping and detaining individuals based solely on the suspicion that
they are in the country illegally.
The judge expressed concerns about whether or not mere fines will
prevent Sheriff Joe from violating the court order again and was
reportedly considering a separate contempt case that could result in
steeper fines and even a possibility of jail time.
This is simply absurd. The judge’s order was designed in the first
place solely to prevent the sheriff from doing his job, which is to
protect his community from criminal threats.
Much to the contrary of what we hear from the Obama administration and the mainstream media, the southern border is not secure.
Illegal immigrants continue to flood into the United States
every day, accompanied by criminals, cartel and gang members, drug
smugglers, human traffickers, weapons dealers and, of course,
terrorists.
If law enforcement officials aren’t allowed to detain someone that
they suspect of the crime of being in the country illegally, that
prevents them from effectively protecting their community, as they must
now wait until some additional law has been broken before investigating.
Hopefully, Sheriff Joe will not face a stiff punishment for simply
doing his job, despite the ridiculous court order designed to prevent
him from doing so.

The sheriff should arrest the judge put together a common law court. Try him for treason and follow the dictates of that court. The sheriff should deputize every male in his county to see to it the federal criminals don't free the judge.
