From Wikipedia:

Joseph M. "Joe" Arpaio (born June 14, 1932) is the elected Sheriff of Maricopa County in the U.S. state of Arizona. First voted into office in 1992 Arpaio is responsible for law enforcement in Maricopa County. This includes management of the county jail, courtroom security, prisoner transport, service of warrants, and service of process. Arpaio promotes himself as "America's Toughest Sheriff."<1><2> He is well known for his outspoken stance against illegal immigration.<3> Arpaio has become a flashpoint for controversy surrounding Arizona's SB1070 anti-illegal immigration act.<4>

Arpaio is currently the subject of FBI,<5> United States Department of Justice,<6> and Federal Grand Jury<7> investigations for civil rights violations and abuse of power, and is the defendant in a federal class-action suit for racial profiling.<8>

Arpaio has become controversial for aggressive publicity-seeking,<9> retaliation against political enemies,<10> abuse of power,<11> civil rights violations,<12> and financial mismanagement.<13>

Arpaio was once widely popular among voters in Arizona.<14> However, his popularity has waned since 2007.<15>
