Like a lumpy wad of flavorless, chewed gum, Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s recently “retired” top flack, Lisa Allen, continues to cling to Arpaio’s weathered boot-heel, working as a public-relations “vendor” on a contract basis for her old boss, from her new home in Boise, Idaho.
Allen resigned effective February 2, after 23 years of pimping for the man she once publicly referred to as a “media whore,” but the fix already was in when it came to the MCSO’s request that Allen continue working for the Sheriff’s Office on a part-time basis for $102 per hour, according to her weekly invoices.
