Latino Leaders Outraged by Arizona Sherriffs Illegal Immigration Tip Hotline

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said Wednesday, however, that he would not disconnect the hotline, and stressed that deputies would investigate people only if authorities had probable cause, according to a report in The Arizona Republic newspaper.”
