Being convicted of a crime in the state of Arizona carries severe penalties. The state prosecutes to the fullest extent of the law on all criminal convictions, no matter how minor they may be. Many people have been sent to prison and had their lives ruined simply because they were charged on a legality, not a technicality, which means, they weren't "technically" comitting the alleged crime, but the law enforcement officer found a way to "legally" charge them with it. This REALLY does happen, more than you can ever imagine. The Sheriff and the County Attorney are ruthless in their pursuit for justice, all part of a polictal ploy to secure the election in their favor.
It's a scary shame to realize that these men don't care if they prosecute and convict an innocent person just as long as the records show they practice zero tolerance on crime, enforcing mandatory minimums on sentencing, because it leads Arizona residents to believe they are doing their job. Let's hope none of these people ever have a family member wind up incarcerated in Arizona, because they will quickly find out that the very men they have supported all this time, are the same men who have locked up their loved one, while ripping their lives apart. Arizona is a crime trap and turns ordinary law-abiding citizens into criminals. It is important for you to educate and familiarize yourself on Arizona Law if you ever plan on moving to the state or even just planning to visit. Trust me, you need to know your rights should you ever find yourself in a tight grip/choke hold by the long arm of the Arizona law.
There is a book written by Dan Horne, a man who fell victim to the system in Arizona, who writes about it in his book. I suggest anyone having anything to do with the state of Arizona, read this book or at least some excerpts from it. It is properly entitled, "Accidental Felon" http://www.accidentalfelons.com/ It is a shocking display of human abuse inflicted upon those in custody with the Maricopa County Jail System and the horrific abuse of political power by the men who run this jail and the entire Arizonal criminal system.
