The taxpayer costs for the racial profiling verdict arising from then-Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s immigration crackdowns are expected to reach $314 million.
Seven years after Joe Arpaio was ousted as sheriff of Arizona’s most populous county, taxpayers are still footing the bills from a racial profiling verdict over his signature immigration crackdowns — and those costs have been getting heavier since.
The overwhelming majority of the spending goes toward hiring employees to help meet the court’s requirements and a separate staff working on the court's behalf to monitor the sheriff office's compliance with both overhauls. Arpaio led 20 of the large-scale patrols targeting immigrants from January 2008 through October 2011. Under Arpaio’s leadership, the agency continued immigration enforcement in smaller, more routine traffic patrols until spring 2013.
