[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 821136, member: 12952"] [B]Arpaio Launches “Operation Desert Sky” Posse and Sheriff’s Deputies Converge to Reduce Drugs and Illegal Immigration Through Maricopa County — 30 Posse Pilots/Aircraft Mobilized as Spotters PHOENIX, AZ – [/B]Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio will announce today that he has recently launched a full scale offensive in the valley including the southwest and southeast desert corridors through which large amounts of illegal drugs and human cargo are smuggled into Maricopa County. Arpaio’s aim: to essentially seal the county border from the growing invasion of drug and human traffickers. Arpaio says he is confident that the operation will result in a number of arrests and seizures but as important, the operation’s aim is to act as a deterrent to keep criminals from entering the county. Dubbed “OPERATION DESERT SKY,” the undertaking is similar to Arpaio’s crime suppression operations of the past with these exceptions: the duration of the operation will be over several weeks,; it will cover a much broader territory; and it will utilize an extensive array of fixed wing aircraft to spot smugglers as they make their way from Mexico into the county at its southern most borders. “This will be a far longer and broader strategy by this Sheriff’s Office to deter illegal immigration as well as the flow of narcotics into Maricopa County,” Arpaio says. Arpaio says the trigger for the operation was the recent arrest of 207 illegal aliens by his deputies in human smuggling investigations. Additionally, in the last 12 months, nearly 36,000 pounds of cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana with a street value of over $25 Million have been seized. This level of activity is contrary to widely published reports quoting several federal officials who suggest that there is a large reduction in drug and human trafficking at the US-Mexican border.
