Well, "America's Sheriff", Joe Arpaio, may be running out of luck. Poor Joe, his attorneys say that the board has a vendetta against the Sheriff. Well, if the numbers in the documents turn out to be true, it's a 50 Million dollar vendetta.
Way to go Joe!
CBS - KPHO out of Phoenix just issued this report...

PHOENIX -- CBS 5 obtained some new information about how much money the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors said Maricopa County Sheriff Joe may have misused
CBS 5 got court papers that showed the Superior Court why the supervisors felt they had to issue a subpoena on Arpaio.
But the details found in just-released court documents were a first.
According to those documents, MCSO's Chief Financial Officer, Loretta Barkell, provided information showing nearly $500,000 of misspending in just a two-week period.
That money, according to court records, came mostly from voter-created and restricted funds.
It said one of Arpaio's lawyers suggested the misspending started in 2006.The board said if all those numbers add up, Arpaio may have misspent more than $50 million taxpayer dollars in the past five years alone, according to the documents.
The article states that according to Arpaio's lawyers, it's all one big witch hunt.
A board spokesperson said the numbers don't lie, and no matter who looks at them the facts and figures won't change.
We'll know by 10 a.m. Monday whether the judge grants that hearing.
