Having lived in Tempe for 15 years, I loved what Sheriff Joe did. He is right on all accounts. Some people find him a bit "harsh". I have never had a run in with him, but one of my employees did. I laughed my ass off at him every day for 3 weeks on his visit to tent city for a drinking and driving infraction. They did let him out for work, but the stories from the inside were great.

By the way...My wife hates him.. HHAHAHA
