Is a hard-line sheriff crossing the line when it comes to immigration enforcement?
One of the most controversial figures in the illegal immigration
debate is Joe Arpaio, the longtime sheriff of Arizona's Maricopa
County, whose aggressive hard line on local crime has received
national attention. Has Sheriff Arpaio, who's made the most of
federally granted authority to enforce immigration laws, crossed
the line when it comes to serving and protecting his community?
Some critics have accused him of racial profiling. Our colleagues
at EXPOSÉ and local reporters from the East Valley
Tribune reveal what Sheriff Arpaio was - and wasn't - doing in
the name of law enforcement.
In a special bonus interview, NOW senior correspondent Maria
Hinojosa sits down with Joe Arpaio for an intense discussion about
the issues and criticism swirling around him.
