ICE agency report puts serious dent in Eric Holder’s DOJ case against Sheriff Joe Arpaio
On Thursday Eric Holder and the Department of Justice filed suit against Arizona’s Maricopa County Sheriff’s office run by the outspoken and flamboyant Joe Arpaio who’s made it a personal crusade to uphold U.S. immigrations laws when the feds won’t.
Eric Holder and the Obama Administration are applying the full weight of the federal government’s resources into trying to stop the new Arizona immigration law, but that’s only one of the multi-front attacks they’ve setup to make sure states are stripped of their ability to enforce U.S. immigration laws. Now the DOJ is suing the most active and largest sheriff’s office in Arizona (Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s office has 189 officers) by extending an investigation into alleged civil rights violations.
Back in March of 2009 the DOJ informed sheriff Arpaio that a probe was underway to investigate what the DOJ claimed were “alleged patterns or practices of discriminatory police practices and unconstitutional searches and seizures.” This is where things get sticky for Eric Holder and the Obama Administration.
Six months prior to this investigation the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) had already conducted its own investigation of sheriff Arpaio’s office and not only gave it a clean bill of health, they actually gave a raving review. The report said things like “The OI and DRO supervisors consider the conduct and performance of the MCSO … officers to be professional and meeting the requirement of the MOA.” And that they considered the working relationship between the feds and the sheriff’s office to be “excellent” and that cases brought by the sheriff’s office to be “high quality.”

ICE agency report puts serious dent in Eric Holder’s DOJ case against Sheriff Joe Arpaio
When crooks take over the government of the USA it only stands to reason that they would accuse the REAL Law Officers of this nation of being racists, ineffective, far less than competent, racketeers, racial profilers and who knows what else, all because these Law Officers are doing the job that the Federal government will not do.
The slanderous accusations against Sheriff Joe Arpaio are being thrown out there in order to deflect attention from the Obama regime, particularly the Department of Justice, it’s top dog, Attorney General Eric Holder and the certain fact that Holder and the DOJ will do anything they have to in order to protect themselves and Barack Hussein Obama from the fallout brought on by Operation Fast and Furious and the murder of Border Patrol Agent Brian A. Terry.
Also, Sheriff Arpaio recently instigated his own investigation into the birth certificate and citizenship of Barack Hussein Obama.
I don’t want to go all *conspiracy theory* but c’mon, isn’t this suit filed by the Department of Justice just a bit too timely? A bit of well timed convenience?
All of the accusations being made by Obama and Company will be proved unfounded I am certain, and the fact remains, the Obama regime is the most crooked, vile, despicable crew to ever fool a block of voters. There is no end to their resources and no reach that they will not make in an attempt to stay in power and further destroy this nation.
I’m not going to sit here and hand you a line about how *The Good Guys* always win, that is because the only time it happens is on television, but I have a feeling that Sheriff Joe is going to come out of this looking like a *Good Guy* and that Obama and Holder, as well as all of those around them, are going to pay for their crimes.
Now that’s the good oil ! Well said Texas Fred.
Fred, EVERY SINGLE TIME someone tries something against Sheriff Joe, he comes out 1) fighting and 2) winning BECAUSE he treats all of his inmates the same. I have seen MANY of his former inmates actually come back and THANK him for putting them on the straight and narrow, and that’s inmates of all colors and sizes.
What MOST people don’t realize and even fewer will bother to find out is all the humanitarian activities Joe participates in, often with his own funds and/or properties, and with an eye toward true rehabilitation of the inmates who genuinely want the opportunities.
For instance-his work with the animal shelters (many inmates have been through the program and when they are released are very qualified veterinarian assistants) which saves Maricopa County literally millions of dollars every year because inmates perform the tasks; his farm where he raises livestock to supply the prisons with meat and vegetables, which also saves the county money; his tree farm which supplies Christmas trees in the winter and again provides jobs for inmates. Of course, there is also the famous tent city and the bologna sandwiches.
The amount of money he has saved Maricopa County and its taxpayers over the years through these endeavors is incredible and overlooked.
The man is hard nosed, principled, doesn’t buy into conspiracy theories, backs up his actions beyond belief to cover himself because of these attacks and has yet to lose a case brought against him. Napolitano has pulled this permission before, when she was governor and couldn’t fight him any other way. He went right on doing his job, basically ignoring her attitude, her illegal orders and her hysteria.
And THAT, in a nutshell, is WHY he is “America’s Sheriff”. Knowing Joe, he will soon be standing at the border, facing down the DoJ and stating, “the Sheriff is the ultimate authority in their jurisdiction, not the feds. Get off my property. Now.” Of course, that is simply my speculation and it hasn’t happened, but I can very easily see it happening.
I just wish we could clone him.
Clone him indeed…
Here in Dallas County we have a female, Hispanic, Democratic Lesbian serving as Sheriff… She is a POS… Dallas County didn’t elect her, the City of Dallas did, that city is a libber as it gets…
Eric Holder has been a negro “water boy” for the Demorats for 20+ years.
That is all he is, or will ever be.
Yes, it is time to demand his resignation.
I expect Obama will “jettison” him soon since he hampers the OBmessiah in forwarding his socialist/communist demands.
You can bet Obama will have the IRS looking into Sheriff Joe too.
I am surprised that hasn’t already happened…
If AZ’s votes to reelect Obama in 2012, I’m going to have a meltdown.
I have several friends in AZ. And do they have personal tales to tell about the illegal-immigration problems there! It’s horrible.
Of course the IRS will be looking over the Sheriff’s books, and every thing else involved. That is, after all Chi Town style politics.
The situation in Arizona is ridiculous, period. I’ve been spending a lot of time lately on I 10 and the 8. Border Patrol is everywhere; BP goes up the road, and around a turn, and twenty obviously illegals race across and disappear into the Mesquite. That tells me that there are spotters all along the route.
I’m with Fred, this is, and has been, an invasion. We should be acting accordingly. Not doing what the present, and former administrations have called border enforcement…
You can make book that the IRS is looking into Sheriff Arpaio’s personal taxes behind the scenes, scouring everything possible. This is a critical hinge case. If it is decided that Sheriff Arpaio or the other cities and states on the border can enforce immigration laws on the federal or state books, the back of Janet Napolitano is broken.
The federal government, in its current iteration, cannot brook that and will do EVERYTHING within its power to KEEP its imperial power. Nothing is too deep, broad, uninformed, illegal or underhanded on the part of the federal government.
Can you imagine the potential consequences if, for example, the SCOTUS rules in favor of Arizona?
Apoplexy. Exploding heads in DC.

Obama and Holder ought to both be Impeached, tried and kicked out of office. Might happen in the House, but the HRH Reid Senate would blow it off. It is a disgrace that the DOJ is harrassing a Great guy like Sheriff Joe.
My country is going to hell - God help us if Obama gets re elected. It will be all over.
