Despite the illegal detentions, despite the documented racial profiling, despite the mistreatment of prisoners, despite thumbing his nose at the federal courts for years, Sheriff Joe Arpaio remains free of federal criminal charges. The lack of criminal prosecutions of law enforcement officers like Sheriff Joe is no anomaly, in fact its the problem. The constitution means nothing and the DOJ continues to fail to hold officials criminally accountable.
