The election numbers are in.  And what has not been trumpeted is that an overwhelming number of Pinal County voters arguably voted their undetermined views by their absence on election day.  Sadly our county voters’ apathetic 24.75% turnout was the second worst in the entire state.

 

Only days remain before primary election and revelations once more surface demonstrating the duplicity and extremes to which Sheriff Paul Babeu’s political tentacles extend.

Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics

Mark Twain popularized the saying that there are three kinds of lies:  lies, damned lies and statistics.

As primary election decision time approaches, it’s important for voters to review some of the more outlandish and obvious prevarications spewing from the incumbent sheriff.

The Most Corrupt Sheriff

The wall of shame continues growing at the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office with yet another federal investigation, along with a blatant attempt at subverting the rule of law in the county attorney’s office, plus a new low in drug cartel fear-mongering involving the tragic loss of an entire family.

Insufficient Evidence

Last week we learned that criminal charges will not be pressed against Sheriff Babeu’s spokesman, Tim Gaffney, for deleting thousands of emails from his PCSO computer.

Sheriff Paul Babeu fallaciously attacked me

At the last Board of Supervisors meeting Sheriff Paul Babeu and his admirer, dairy farmer Scott Blevins, rather than addressing the substance of my criticisms of the Sheriff, fallaciously attacked me for serving as president of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona.

Horror of Horrors

This past week the oh so-sensitive non-politician Paul Babeu was, horror of horrors, “shocked” by what he described as “an election tactic” by President Barack Obama.

What is genuinely shocking is that the publicly disgraced Babeu continues his own brand of embarrassing “election tactics”.  

The wall of shame continues growing at the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office with yet another federal investigation, along with a blatant attempt at subverting the rule of law in the County Attorney’s Office, plus a new low in drug cartel fear-mongering involving the tragic loss of an entire family.

This time, Paul Babeu, has been caught with his corrosive hand in the hoarding and misuse of military equipment from a stockpile costing taxpayers – you and me --over $7 million dollars.

Will He or Won't He?

The question being pondered in the media about Pinal County’s perpetual headliner is:  will he or won’t he continue his run for congress; will he or won’t he run for re-election as sheriff?

The real question should be:  will he or won’t he be indicted while running for congress; will he or won’t he be indicted while running for sheriff?

Babeu's 30-second political commercials

This week’s 30-second Paul Babeu political commercials are one more illustration of Babeu’s dishonesty and brash disregard of the law.  In this latest version of PCSO employees gone wild, we see Sheriff Paul’s hired hands performing political play-acting despite prohibition of politicking by public employees.
