Racial profiling trial begins for Ariz sheriff
In Phoenix a federal courtroom opens as Latinos sue Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his deputies over alleged racial profiling in traffic stops. Plaintiffs seek a court order to end discriminatory policing. Arpaio argues stops were lawful and based on probable cause, not race. The suit foreshadows a wider Justice Department case against the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.
