On Crime: Called ex-sheriff Joe Arpaio a "champion of the rule of law"

Pence had kind words for former Sheriff Joe Arpaio who was pardoned by President Trump after a federal judge held him in criminal contempt. Pence introduced Arpaio as "another favorite, a great friend of this president, a tireless champion of strong borders and the rule of law." It was interesting choice of words, considering Arpaio was charged by federal prosecutors and convicted of contempt of court for refusing to stop his department's unconstitutional racial profiling of Latino residents.
