Arpaio is the only U.S. official actually doing something about illegals, and they just tied his hands again, perhaps for the last time. This is getting ridiculous! We have an insecure border that ISIS could walk across -- and probably has! -- and a U.S. District Court is telling a sheriff he can't enforce the laws of his own state because he's using them to catch illegals. The apocalypse may not be upon us, but I think I hear the floor boards creaking from it's approach.Arizona county barred from enforcing identity-theft laws used to convict immigrant workershttp://latino.foxnews.com/latino/po...nforcing-identity-theft-laws-used-to-convict/http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/po...nforcing-identity-theft-laws-used-to-convict/
PHOENIX (AP) – A judge has barred Maricopa County officials from enforcing two Arizona identity-theft laws that have been used to convict hundreds of immigrant workers.
The decision Monday by U.S. District Judge David Campbell came nearly three weeks after Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio voluntarily disbanded his squad that raided dozens of businesses to arrest more than 700 immigrants who were charged with using fake or stolen IDs to get jobs.
While other agencies make arrests under the two laws, Arpaio's office is the only department in the state to raid businesses in enforcement of the statutes. The closure of the sheriff's squad ended Arpaio's last major foothold in immigration enforcement after the courts and federal government have gradually reined in his powers in recent years.
