While Sheriff, Joe Arpaio committed atrocious crimes devoid of basic humanity; he must face justice. During his tenure as Sheriff Arpaio:
-forced inmates to live in a “tent city” where temperatures reached 135 degrees.
-bragged about spending more to feed dogs than human inmates, and letting the inmates watch The Food Network to exacerbate their hunger.
-Prisoners in his jails died at alarming rates, with no explanation given.
-Withheld resources for investigations of sex crimes.
-arrested reporters for covering him.
-ordered his officers burned a dog alive for no reason, then laughed as the dog’s owners cried.

This man should receive just punishment for his role in the inhumane treatment of inmates in his jurisdiction, and for the racial profiling he continued to do, in spite of court rulings against his policies and actions.
