The Mexican Mafia has reportedly given a “green-light” to take out outspoken Pinal County sheriff Paul Babeu.
Sheriff Babeu declined a personal security detail because the county resources were already stretched thin.
A high-profile Arizona law-enforcement officer who has been outspoken about his support for the state’s controversial new immigration law is receiving death threats, myFOXphoenix.com reported late Monday.

Some of the threats against Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu were from the Mexican mafia and drug cartel members.

Outside law enforcement teams brought in to investigate the threats found them credible.

Babeu was very outspoken about the need to secure the state’s border with Mexico — a known entry point to the U.S. for drug smugglers and illegal immigrant traffickers — and supports law SB1070, which makes illegal immigration a state crime.

Despite the threats, Babeu declined a personal security detail because the county resources were already stretched.

yup..Arizona border as safe as it ever was.
