PHOENIX (Reuters) - Controversial Arizona lawman Joe Arpaio and his top lieutenants will face a civil contempt-of-court hearing in April for repeatedly ignoring judicial orders arising from a 2007 racial-profiling case, a federal judge ruled on Thursday.

U.S. District Court Judge Murray Snow ordered the evidentiary hearing to be conducted after determining there was sufficient evidence to move ahead with the proceeding that could result in penalties against Arpaio, four other individuals, and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

We The People find much of what Fedzilla does to be contemptable. Sheriff Joe is a target because he is a patriot.

A perfect example of why we desperately need an Article V Convention of the States to propose amendments to the US Constitution. (see The Liberty Amendments by Mark Levin).

Even better as a band name.

More Obama, Holder, and Jarrett bullying of a lawman following the AZ. Constitution and the United States Constitution.....something Obama, Holder, and Jarrett cannot be accused of. Think McCain, Flake or any of the AZ representatives will protect Joe’s back?

“More Obama, Holder, and Jarrett bullying of a lawman following the AZ.”

Obama went after Fearless Joe the day he took office. He urinated in Netanyahu’s face the day he took office too.
Funny thing.....Obama has failed miserably on both attacks. Some men are not cowards. EAT it Obama!

Arpaio must never give in against odumbo and his ilk. Holder and company know they have no leg to stand on and keep threating in hopes that the sheriff backs down. I don't see that happening anytime soon and I applaud him for standing his ground.

I was thinking of a song like Godzilla destroying the banking system. There was a parody of “Oh No Obama has to go” but it got pulled.

LOL. Arpaio laughs right in their face.

Arpaio needs to start arresting these fag “judges” and deck them out in pink underwear for the heavily tattooed “unaccompanied” Barry’s Kids shacked up at his tent city jail waiting for the DNC to send them their voter registration card, driver’s licenses and their four years worth of Unearned Income Freeloader Tax Credit “Loopholes” Bucks.

Murray Snow: agent of Mexico

There is no such thing as a “latino” race. So whats the grounds for the ruling?

U.S. District Court Judge Murray Snow

Snow - as in to obfuscate? You can't make this stuff up.

Snow’s a Mormon, and the Church wants converts.

Mexicans and central Americans have been converting in droves and moving to arizona and utah.

This makes the Church Elders very happy and the Word has gone out: protect our newfound brothers.

I think Snow is just acting on that. May seem a bit far fetched to some, but you gotta live it to see it.

Ping to Federal judge (Bush appointee) ordering (another)civil contempt hearing for Arpaio on Latino traffic stops which Arpaio will likely show to be baseless...

Attorneys funded by the taxpayers can round up plaintiffs by the dozens and draft very convincing claims to put before judges all day in AZ...up to a point! But Sheriff Joe is still in office!
