PHOENIX - After releasing at least 58 undocumented inmates over the last week, Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone reversed course Friday night and allowed federal immigration authorities to pick up inmates inside his jails.

The undocumented inmates were being held on charges ranging from assault to extreme DUI. Many are immediately deportable under new priorities set by President Donald Trump.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said five of the released inmates had been arrested. Even Penzone conceded the released inmates could be a danger to the community.

"That does not make me feel good," the sheriff said in an interview Friday.

These clowns who put foreign illegal criminals ahead of taxpaying US citizens should be immediately fired without pay. All these elected officials - elected BY THE PEOPLE, not by foreigners - are not looking out for your interests.

To think the voters of Maricopa County replaced Joe Arpaio with this a$$hole amazes me. Phoenix is just another RAT-Run big city.

“Even Penzone conceded the released inmates could be a danger to the community. “That does not make me feel good,” the sheriff said in an interview...”

It is time for residents in areas like this, to let rectums like Penzone know that if their family members are maimed, hurt or killed by these released criminals, Penzone and his ilk will be held responsible. No lawyers, just citizens handling the wrongs.

Penzone and his ilk won’t be held responsible. But taxpayers will take it in the shorts. Maybe they’ve figured that out.

Check the photo accompanying the story. “Brainless dupe” immediately came to mind.

kicking out criminals “does not make” him feel good. The people who voted for this Soros bastard should be ashamed.

” ... fired without pay ...”
*******
Not only fired but made subject to lawsuits by victims of the released.

Penzone said he had to act quickly because Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery had provided legal advice that detaining the inmates was unconstitutional.


The rationale for releasing them. Penzone is definitely not his own man, too influenced by others. Why quickly?

But why the change now hold them again? The article doesn’t get close to that?

Just a puff piece for the first action. Fake news that says nothing once you look closely?

Dunno but I sure hope they feel the pain of their decision.

Many in Phx remember what it was like before Sheriff Joe came to town.

My bet is the city’s chamber of commerce, bean counters, lawyers, and/or insurers had a word with Penzone.

Without comment.

Wikipedia—After retiring from the police force, Penzone joined the non-profit group Childhelp as vice president. The group focuses on preventing child abuse and neglect.

Soros $2 million bought a lot of influence against Sheriff Joe. And then there was the indictment against Joe, announced the day before early voting began. Strange silence on that indictment since Penzone won.
