A smear machine? Unlike the Backpage guys, Arpaio was convicted of a felony and also had to pay like $140 million in civil suit and misspent another $100 million in jail funds. The guy was a disaster.

The pimping charges were thrown out because they were not doing any pimping. They were publishing ads. They are afforded the same protection that Voat would be if I published something illegal on their site. I would liable not Voat.

Wrong. Arpaio was convicted of criminal contempt of court, which is NOT a felony. They lessened the charge so they could deny the Sheriff a trial by jury.

Thanks for the correction. He was facing up to 6 months in jail and a fine. And it was a misdemeanor he was convicted of.

He isn't even attempting to be factual anymore.
