Since 2007, the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) has accused Sheriff Joe of detaining Latinos unlawfully, in which he would regularly perform 'sweeps' in Hispanic neighborhoods. Since then, Sheriff Joe has ignored a court order for reported racial profiling and criminal contempt charges could be issued if prosecutors are willing.

First of all, I can't believe that he is 84 now. I didn't know that. More importantly, I've never liked our sheriff and have heard a ton of nothing but bad things about him and especially his actions of being racist. This doesn't at all surprise me but I really doubt that he will be convicted. I guess we will see though! Thanks for sharing!!!
