Judge: No racial profiling in MCSO raid
A federal judged ruled Friday that Sheriff Joe Arpaio and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office did not commit racial profiling when they raided a Phoenix landscaping business.
Celia Alvarez sued the MCSO after the February 11, 2009 raid of Handyman Maintenance, Inc. She was arrested on suspicion of document forgery, identity theft and being in the country illegally
Document forgery and identity theft are not victimless crimes. The fact that such crimes may be committed by illegal aliens in Maricopa County will not stop me from properly enforcing the law. I am very pleased that the federal court recognized that my deputies follow the constitution to its letter and spirit when they enforce Arizona law," Arpaio said in a press release
