Sure, Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s critics say he’s just a publicity hound. But he must be doing something right because the people of Maricopa County, Arizona keep re-electing him over and over again.
Joe’s latest stunt is posting each day’s funniest mugshots online so the public can vote for Mug Shot of the Day.
Here’s how Joe explains it:
Numerous people are booked into our jails each day. Vote for the mug shot you like best then see if your choice makes mug shot of the day tomorrow! You can change your mind as often as you like but your final vote will be the only one cast. Tell us what you think!
The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office website gets 800,000 hits a day. We say make it 800,001.
We’d like every IHateTheMedia.com reader to click on the link and vote for Benjamin Luna.
We’re behind you all the way, Ben. And we’re behind you, too, Sheriff Joe.

Now tell me this dude doesn't look like he got arrested for gettin in a fight with the Pillsbury Dough Boy!
Check the mugshot of Patrick Leroy Holt. For a minute I thought it was Sean Penn!
Nah, too nice looking. Also, lead pipe cinch he's not as big of an asshole as Penn.
Hahahahaha! I wonder if Sheriff Joe has a fan club!
You bet he does! Maricopa County has about 6 million people living there and Sheriff Joe keeps getting re-elected by a huge margin! I have relatives living in Phoenix and the running joke is who will run against Arpaio in the next election. The loser, of course!
I had to go with Nikki Ann Bartlet. I'm thinking she got arrested for doing a very bad Rod Stewart impression!
This nation needs more law enforcement people like Joe Arpario and not the bleeding hearts that claim to be law enforcement people. There are many that work for the bleeding hearts who just wish we could find the next Joe Apario in our departments.
what the F is up with contestant alfred john shepard??????
The "chinless wonder"? Well, amongst his other crimes against nature and humanity, John Kerry stole that poor slob's chin to augment his own.
Actually, most likely jaw cancer from chewing tobacco took it.
That should be an object lesson to you guys about why you should indulge in snuff with moderation.
I love that site! Thanks for posting it. I put a link on my Facebook page for all my friends to try it out.
May I assume you've done the same for IHTM?
Yes, Mr Editor, I did months ago!
Outstanding. Thank you.
What I liked were all the comments about it at the daily mail's website. Apparently the brits want Joe to come over there for a while.

There's a lot of chewy mugshot goodness there. Looks to me like all's Joe has to do for profiling is pull over anybody that looks like a dumbass. Carl Dobbins looks happy, though.
Don't forget Al Gore.
That was cool! It took my computer a little while to load up the Maricopa County Sheriff Office's website, but when I finally got there it was pretty cool! Thanks IHTM!
