PHOENIX — Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Thomas Galvin strongly condemned recent allegations that the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office misrepresented how much it spent on court-reported oversight.
“The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office has been under federal oversight for about 15 years,” Galvin told KTAR News 92.3 FM’s The Mike Broomhead Show on Thursday.
The recent allegations against the office stem from a court-ordered audit of expenses reported by MCSO in what’s known as the Ortega Melendres case, a racial profiling case that dates back to Joe Arpaio’s time as the county’s sheriff.
