Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n

WASHINGTON\u2014Arizona Rep. Trent Franks praised President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to pardon former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio on Friday, calling it \u201cright and just\u201d for Arpaio and his family.<\/em><\/h2>\n

Arpaio was held in contempt of court by a federal judge for continuing his policy of enforcing immigration laws against illegal aliens. When Arpaio was sued for allegedly violating civil rights, a federal judge whose family member was representing the side suing Arpaio\u2014a conflict of interest that under federal law requires<\/a> the judge to recuse himself\u2014ordered Arpaio to cease his law enforcement efforts.<\/em><\/p>\n

When the judge later decided Arpaio was not fully complying with that order, he held Arpaio in contempt of court and referred the matter to the Obama-Lynch Justice Department for criminal prosecution. Judge Susan Bolton\u2014who was appointed by President Barack Obama\u2014convicted<\/a> Arpaio without a jury on July 31 of this year.<\/em><\/p>\n

Although Arpaio is 85 years old and his wife is gravely ill, federal prosecutors from the Obama administration sought six months behind bars for the sheriff. If prosecutors had requested a single day more than six months of jail time, then the Sixth Amendment of the Constitution\u2019s Bill of Rights would have entitled Arpaio to a jury trial.<\/em><\/p>\n
