Joe Arpaio, known as “America’s toughest sheriff” for his enforcement of federal immigration policy in Maricopa County, Arizona, has refiled a defamation complaint against the Huffington Post and Rolling Stone for falsely describing him as a “felon.”
A complaint raising similar concerns was recently dismissed for lack of “specificity,” and his lawyer, Larry Klayman, promptly brought the new action.
The case in federal court in the District of Columbia seeks $300 million in damages for “general defamation, defamation per se, defamation by implication, tortious interference with prospective business relations and false light.”
