JAIL CAM!

Live from the Maricopa County, AZ's Madison Street Jail:

Sheriff Joe Arpaio is clearly an upstanding citizen with the public's welfare in mind. That's why I saw banners for "discount cigarettes" in the window that pops up when you engage Jail Cam. (I'm a smoker, but I think this is a bit much.)

The site provides the following waring: "This is a real life transmission of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office Madison Street Jail. Instances of violence or sexually inappropriate behavior by detainees during the booking process may occur. Viewer discretion is advised. This is a jail not a simulation. The persons in this transmission are either employees of Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, other police agencies in Maricopa County or arrestees. Under the United States and Arizona Constitution a person is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law."

Take a look at cam 4. See that guy standing there and then disappearing? Now reload cam 4... What do you mean, live?

Maybe they lied. This is a police agency hawking cigarettes, so I wouldn't put it past them.

Errrm, PAul, have you seen that other advert they have? "Steal a Million while you still have the chance" ... EZ Win Lotto maybe, but still, a wrong advert for the law-enforcement pages

Btw, this same advert has found its ways to the fori as well We're either criminals or potential criminals if you look at it that way
