Lunarscope,
I watched the link you provided re Arias and her "mitigation factors" and was about to post it when I saw that you already had.
Funny, but sadly so true.
Sheriff Arpaio...............
What can I say?
Offering an apology and to contribute money for restitution for those he caused trauma to just to avoid a hearing is once again another one of his arrogant tactics.
He violated a court order and should be held accountable.
An apology does negate the facts of his racial profiling and an "Oh, I am so sorry", is a slap in the face to the public.
He is willing to contribute A PORTION of $100,000 towards the $350,000 fund he is pressing county officials to create to give restitution to those harmed.
I sincerely hope that the judge in this case refuses his offer and moves forward with violation issues.
Arpaio is NOT above the law that he professes to uphold.
He wants a "get out of jail free" pass on this.
In fact, he does not want any more scrutiny of his office and policy tactics.
With the shoe on the other foot, he would not hesitate to deny an offer such as this and take the person to task for what they have done.
