Feds Close Investigation into Sheriff Joe
ABC 15.com- PHOENIX – Federal authorities said Friday that they’re closing their abuse-of-power investigation into Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona without filing charges against him. Authorities were investigating America’s self-proclaimed toughest sheriff for his part in failed public corruption cases against officials who were odds with him. Arpaio brought cases against a judge and two county officials in 2009. Assistant U.S. Attorney Ann Birmingham Scheel released a saying her office “is closing its investigation into allegations of criminal conduct” by current and former members of the sheriff’s and county attorney’s offices. Scheel, who is based in Arizona, didn’t elaborate but said she was acting on behalf of the U.S. Department of Justice. The federal probe focused specifically on the sheriff’s anti-public-corruption squad. In a separate probe, the U.S. Justice Department has accused Arpaio’s office of a wide range of civil rights violations, and in another case, a federal judge has yet to rule in a civil case brought by a group of Latino plaintiffs that claimed Arpaio and his deputies engaged in racial profiling. Arpaio was scheduled to give a news conference Friday night after returning from the Republican National Convention in Florida. His deputy chief Jack MacIntyre, said, “the U.S. attorney’s office and its investigators recognized what sheriff’s office has said all along: We did not make any prosecutorial decisions, even though things were referred to the then-county attorney.”

Another multi-million dollar goose chase, down the drain.
Scape goats for the liberal left, never come cheap.
Do the taxpayers get a refund for this BS?

Notice the difference in the media reporting between when they started the investigation and now that they dropped them.

Someone needs to be in jail over this fraud.

They just closed it for the election. They will reopen it if obama is reelected.

Simple Chicago type politics, open an investigation, get headlines, hope to intimidate the subject, then fold-up and expect the subject's reputation is destroyed.

I suspect Sheriff Joe's rep is not tarnished in the eyes of his constituents, but the butt-heads have cost the taxpayers a lot of money for strictly political purpose. Of course this is just ONE case of the DOJ's political scandals.

Better watch out there. "Chicago" is now a racist word.

In last month's primary, he received more votes than all of the Dem candidates combined. He's going to crush the competition in November. He's adored here. He could croak in October and he would be elected posthumously.

Bwahah.

That was unkind.

Funny and true, but still unkind.
