JUST IN: Judge dismisses criminal case against Joe Arpaio

So who exactly couldn’t see this coming a mile away? The morons who challenged Trump’s pardon of Arpaio:

FOX 10 – A federal judge has upheld the validity of former Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s pardon despite claims from critics that letting his clemency stand would encourage officials to disobey future court orders.

Judge Susan Bolton cited U.S. Supreme Court precedent Wednesday when she formally dismissed the criminal case against the former six-term sheriff of metro Phoenix.

Two months ago, Bolton found Arpaio guilty of disobeying a court order to stop his traffic patrols that targeted immigrants.

Prosecutor John Keller says the pardon ends the case and that Arpaio will never be held accountable for defying the order.

Bolton is still mulling a request from Arpaio’s attorneys to throw out all rulings in the case.

It doesn’t matter how clear it is in the Constitution, it seems every time Trump exercises his executive powers it gets challenged by someone in the courts. Thankfully this time a judge dismissed the case before letting activist judges get their hands on it.
