Missing the PointThat would be me.
Earlier this week I wondered why New Times scandal would ruin Joe Arpaio's political fortunes after all the crap over the past 15 years. To this I get the following e-mail:
You're an idiot... you should know that you can have prisoners die in your jail's restraint chairs, rack up millions in resulting legal settlements, entrap people on bogus conspiracy charges, and run a political slime machine as long as you don't touch the media. Soon as you touch a hair on their sacred head, you're done.Yep that's the hard hitting journalism of the Valley of the Sun for you; killing prisoners in your jail is a statistic, jailing the editor of a newspaper is a tragedy.
