Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey and Arizona congressman Andy Biggs are supporting the presidential pardon of former metro Phoenix sheriff Joe Arpaio. Ducey says Arpaio 'deserves credit for helping to reduce crime in Maricopa County over his long career in law enforcement and public office.' He says Trump's pardon 'has brought finality to this chapter in Arizona's history.' Ducey adds that Arpaio is his friend and now the 85-year-old ex-lawman can move on and enjoy his retirement with his wife and family.
