Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio recently talked in front of the public to ask for a financial assistance with regard to his increasing legal fees. While his legal fees are now going up and up and the trial has become more personal, he decided to face the public and asked people to support him financially and he also wishes that there will be another judge to be appointed for the legal system.

He wrote a letter, telling his supporters that he is not financially capable as of now, that he does not have the cash that he will use to pay the attorneys who are handling his case as of now. He does not have enough cash to support the monetary needs of his case. He also added that he feels that the immigrant rights groups are targeting him by filing a case against him. Their purpose for that is to put an end to what they call “racist policies” that target Latinos.

In the email that he wrote last Thursday, he said that he has to personally the attorneys so they will represent him in such cases. He also said that he does not have anything to shoulder all the expenses associated with these cases, losing his power to defend himself.
Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio made a plea whilst he is awaiting a choice by the District Judge of the US, G. Murray Snow if he really broke and violated the law as he failed to carry out the 2011 court order that aims to abstain from bias against the minorities

Last Friday, the Arizona Sheriff requested the District Judge to take him off the case and he came up with a reason for that. He said that the judge is individually involved in the lawsuit for the reason that the former attorney of Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio authorized a confidential investigation against the wife of Snow.

He also said that there is no any reasonable person who has the knowledge about the facts can refuse that the District Judge is currently investigating and presiding on the issues in which his loved one is involved. It is what Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio said in his filing. These two people actually met one-day last month of April and the Sheriff had hit a rarely conciliatory tone along with the District Judge. It happened when the 83 years old sheriff responded his first 2 questions in his actions after he was obliged to discontinue racial profiling through his department.

Snow ruled in the year 2013 that the office of Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio had methodically racially profiled the Latinos in the regular traffic & immigration patrols of it. Arpaio wants to apologize to the District Judge and it was his statement last month. Legally, Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio faces the greatest challenge in his life against another national judge in the name of David Campbell, who ordered an urgent stop to the enforcement of the identity theft laws in the state which penalize those immigrants within the nation that are illegally seeking for a job opportunity.

Snow and Arpaio will meet once again in June and it is expected to be significantly affected by his filing.

A video went viral over the internet that shows inappropriate actions taken by Deputy Shawn Glans of Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office. The viral video forced Glans to resign from his post on Monday. He was criminally charged with harassment and official misconduct as depicted in the video. In a video, one can easily hear him cursing the man while trying to take his car keys by force. He appeared hitting the man over his head upon not getting his permission to search his vehicle. The man has his residence in Saratoga Springs.

In a press conference held on Monday by the Sheriff’s Office, it was announced that Shawn Glans handed over his resignation to the company and faced many criminal charges following a quick investigation carried out by his own department. Someone recorded the video and presented it to the Sheriff’s Office, which caused them to take immediate actions against Glans. The investigators including some senior administration conduct several interviews with particular parties involved in the matter. The Sheriff’s Office concluded to suspend Glans for his crimes. The incident put negative influence on his family and children. According to his wife, their daughter received some serious threats from those people who watched the video.

While talking to local media, Glans said that the gun in man’s vehicle caused him to take such actions and he would do it the same way again, however not if he has awareness of videotaping. It was not the first time that disciplinary actions were taken against former sergeant Shawn Glans. In 1996, he was speeding to a 911 call. He came around the corner where he lost all his control on his vehicle and slammed it to another car. The car’s driver was paralyzed along with other injuries. The county had to pay six million dollars in order to settle the case against the Deputy Shawn Glans.
