Arizona
Elects
Sheriff
Known For
Racial
Profiling—And
Passes A Law
To Let Him
Do It |
Immigrants
in Arizona
are on edge
following an
election
that brought
former
Maricopa
County
Sheriff Joe
Arpaio’s
right-hand
man,
Jerry
Sheridan,
back to lead
the
department,
and the
passage of
anti-immigration
Proposition
314.
Arizonans
approved
Prop 314,
which gives
state law
enforcement
authority to
arrest
anyone they
suspect has
entered the
country
outside
authorized
ports of
entry and
declares
crossing the
border
anywhere
outside a
port of
entry to be
a state
crime. And
with
Sheridan at
the helm of
the state’s
largest law
enforcement
agency, who
was found by
a federal
judge to be
in civil
contempt of
court for
disobeying a
2011
preliminary
order to
stop holding
people based
solely on
suspected
immigration
violations,
people don’t
trust his
word that he
wouldn’t do
it again. |

Jerry
Sheridan
Belongs To A
Fringe Group
Of Rogue-Far
Right
Extremists
“Vowing To
Take The Law
Into Their
Own Hands” |
"Watch this
documentary
from
Australia’s
Special
Broadcasting
Service and
prepare to
be afraid.
Very afraid.
While none
of this is
very
surprising
to political
and legal
observers
who have
followed Mr.
Sheridan’s
career, one
does have to
wonder if
the
Republican
Sheriff
Nominee, his
family, and
associates
thought this
would only
air in
Australia,
outside of
the view of
Arizonans
residing in
Maricopa
County. The
documentary
starts with
the
Australian
journalist
Darren Mara
at Jerry
Sheridan’s
ranch while
the Sheriff
nominee is
riding his
horse like a
cowboy and
firing off a
machine gun
at a target.
It
introduces
him as one
of “A fringe
group of
Anti-Government
Sheriffs is
injecting
itself
directly
into this
political
fight,
vowing to
take the law
into their
own hands.”" |

Kamp
Campaign
Reacts To
Sheridan
Lies During
Second
Debate
Between The
Two Maricopa
County
Sheriff
Candidates |
"Another
Debate
between the
Democratic
and
Republican
Nominees for
Maricopa
County
Sheriffs
Department.
More lies
from
MAGA
Republican
superstar
Jerry
Sheridan.
Sheridan
already dug
himself
several
holes in his
first debate
with
Democrat
Tyler Kamp
when he said
he may defy
a federal
judges
orders
again. In
this debate,
he made the
false claim
that he
conceded his
defeat to
Sheriff Paul
Penzone in
the 2020
elections." |

In A Newly
Released
Video,
Maricopa
County
Sheriff
Candidate
Jerry
Sheridan
Again Shows
Why He
Should Not
Be Trusted
With That
Office |
"In a newly
released
video
released by
Phoenix’s
Channel
Twelve News
(NBC,)
Sheridan
portrayed
himself as
Joe Arpaio’s
Chief
Executive
Officer. In
other words,
he was the
person who
ran the nuts
and bolts of
the
Sheriff’s
operation
like
implementing
all those
actions
credited to
Arpaio that
resulted in
state and
national
condemnation
and the loss
of hundreds
of millions
in taxpayer
dollars to
pay for
civil rights
violations
conducted by
the Maricopa
County
Sheriff’s
Department
unlawful
police
tactics as
spelled out
in the
Melendres
Lawsuit from
2007.
In the
video,
Sheridan
pulls a
Reagan after
the
Iran-Contra
Affair
exploded
into public
view in
1987, saying
“I don’t
remember
what I
remember
about that,”
calling it
“a minor
issue…Nuisance
Litigation...”" |

MCSO
Candidate
Jerry
Sheridan
Praises
Detective
With Ethics
Problems |
"While
working for
the MCSO,
Detective
Brian
Mackiewicz
had sex with
three
victims of
separate
crimes he
was assigned
to
investigate
between 2012
and 2016,
according to
MCSO
internal
affairs
records. One
of the cases
involved a
domestic
stalking
victim and
was
personally
assigned by Sheridan to
Mackiewicz
to
investigate.
An internal
affairs
summary
written by
then-chief
Pat Lopez of
the MCSO
stated, “All
three women
(who had sex
with
Mackiewicz)
were victims
of crimes
where Brian
was the
investigating
detective/deputy”
and his
behavior
“could
jeopardize
any
investigation
conducted by
Brian” and
“reflects
poorly on
the office
and law
enforcement
as a
whole.”" |
