Sheriff Joe Arpaio Vows To Use New Law Within Minutes of When It Goes Into Effect

Publicity-hungry Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he will use the new anti-immigrant law as soon as it goes into effect in Arizona. Arpaio told reporters that:

“When this law takes effect on July 29 I will immediately conduct an operation where deputies will use the new law as another tool for them to enforce illegal immigration law. I plan on booking violators of the new law into the county jail rather than turning them over to the federal government.”
