Former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio told Newsmax TV the lawsuit he has filed against The New York Times is about doing the right thing for his reputation.
Arpaio and his lawyer, Freedom Watch founder Larry Klayman, filed the libel suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Tuesday in the wake of an opinion piece the paper ran Aug. 29, accusing the 86-year-old Arpaio of being, among other things, “a truly sadistic man.”
