This one was scarier almost. It was done by a small town (Gilbert)
police, not Joe's mob. I've sent both to a dear friend in Phoenix
asking what the heck is going on. I'm glad I got out when the going
was good by the look of things. But as E says, Joe is notorious. LA's
Daryl Gates was worse in some respects. They were the police, not
just incompetent deputies. Caused race riots, which I don't think
have occurred in Phoenix (yet).
Joe's other little trick was putting accused and convicts in tent
cities in the deserts instead of needing properly built prisons. His
reasoning was if 'our fighting men' were in such awful conditions
fighting in the deserts, then why should these low lifes be given
anything better? Joe's been around a while. I think as far back as
Gulf War I. Not certain, but I'm pretty sure he was there before I left in 95.
