A crime suppression sweep by the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office moved into its second day Friday with nearly 200 deputies and volunteers targeting human smuggling, drop houses and illegal drugs across the Phoenix area, Sheriff Joe Arpaio said.

A spike in human-smuggling arrests in January by patrol deputies prompted the Sheriff's Office to launch the 18th crime-suppression operation, Arpaio said. The office's newly formed Illegal Immigration Enforcement Posse plans to join in the sweep.

Undercover surveillance led to the arrest of 56 suspected illegal immigrants in the days preceding the launch of the sweep.

The sweep has led to a total of 41 arrests by Friday morning. The Sheriff's Office made 33 arrests on accusations ranging from human smuggling, transporting marijuana to failure to provide identification.

Eight other arrests were made in connection with drug possession, open warrants and driving on a suspended license, according to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

Volunteers, including actor Steven Seagal, will sweep the entire Valley for the two 10-hour days.

While conducting surveillance operations to gain intelligence, prior to the sweep, deputies arrested 56 illegal aliens, including one who has been deported a staggering 17 times.

There are currently 1,500 illegal aliens in the Maricopa County Jail, making up about 20 percent of the county’s entire inmate population. According to Sheriff Arpaio, 100 of them are in jail on murder charges. A great many more are there on kidnapping and assault charges.
