America’s self-described toughest sheriff has issued a warning to the CEO of Craigslist saying the popular Internet website is providing a “mechanism to facilitate criminal activity.”
Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s warning to Jim Buckmaster follows the arrest last month in Arizona by Maricopa County Sheriff's Office detectives of two men — one a middle school teacher and the other a handyman — on charges of conspiracy to commit bestiality.
Sheriff Arpaio said an undercover investigation by his office began after detectives became aware that persons in the Phoenix area were using Craigslist to engage in illegal acts with animals. Detectives set up meetings through computer communications where the suspects believed they were meeting animal owners at a hotel.
“I would hope that Mr. Buckmaster takes my advice seriously and looks into our concerns,” Sheriff Arpaio said. “I think it is sad that people would utilize technology to take advantage of animals like this.”
Although bestiality may not be illegal in other states, the sheriff was instrumental in making the offense a crime in Arizona in 2006.

C’mon folks....this story is getting play solely to make Joe Arpaio look foolish. Let’s not help.

Who knew?
No, not a subcurrent of bestiality. A subcurrent of “perversion’s ok,” with the exception of violent and child rape, which is still thankfully not shrugged at.
