:Birther information should probably be included since it's what he is currently in the news for.  Most major news sources are reporting that he has just concluded a six-month investigation finding "probable cause" that both the long-form birth certificate and a secondary record of President Obama's are forgeries.  He claims his investigation is apolitical even though it was initiated and funded by the local Tea Party, and he is currently under investigation by the Feds (with a history of repeated violation of Federal orders).

I also find it odd there is no mention of the allegations of mishandling of sex crimes here or in the added article (which seems like it should be merged here anyway, since it's virtually all Arpaio material), even though references for them exist in the latter and this is well-established.  Is someone scrubbing content?
