Immediately after the horrific January 2011 shooting in Tucson that left eleven dead and severely wounded former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik ? a Democrat ? laid part of the blame at the feet of Republican-aligned talk show host Rush Limbaugh, and other coservatives. There was no evidence that those people were connected to that crime in any way, and Dupnik should have been sanctioned for such irresponsible and defamatory public comments.

A few months after that shooting, a SWAT team under Dupnik?s command gunned down a Marine veteran name Jose Guerena in his home. The SWAT team was deployed to serve a faulty search warrant as part of a drug investigation. No evidence connected Guerena to drug trafficking; in fact, he worked graveyard shifts at a local copper mine.

PimaCountytaxpayers have now been forced to pay a huge settlement to the Guerena family. In a spectacularly dishonest and typically self-serving op-ed column, Dupnik  once again engaged in defamation, insinuating that the victim of his death squad was a criminal and praising his hired killers for their ?restraint? and ?judicious ? use of deadly force.?

Since Dupnik doesn?t have the character to resign,PimaCountyvoters should recall him.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
