Thread: AZ-ACLU revises suit against Arpaio

Now tell me HOW do they know the anglo's were just sent along and they were detained because of their skin. Give ME A break. I don't think they can prove that.

Sheriff's Capt. Paul Chagolla said Arpaio would not comment on the litigation.
One of the new allegations involves Jessica Rodriguez, whom Bodney identified as an aide to Mayor Gordon.
According to the lawsuit, Rodriguez and her husband, David, had been visiting Bartlett Lake when they came across a sign that said "road damaged" ahead of a washed-out section. Two sheriff's vehicles were parked on opposite sides of the damaged area.
Like other motorists, the Rodriguezes turned around and headed the other way before being pulled over. The lawsuit says the couple was asked for Social Security cards and other information; other motorists, all Anglos, were simply stopped and warned about the turn, the suit says.

One of the plaintiffs is an aide to Mayor GORDON?!?! No agenda there, huh? Did she give the officers a REASON for asking for ID? Giving them attitude would do it.

MURGUIA?!?! Oh PLEASE! This could not have been planned better if they tried to set him up.

Maybe this should be forwarded to Sheriff Arpaio.

I posted it in the comment section of the thread article. I'm sure Arpaio's lawyers already know this but it might be a good idea to send it along anyway.
