Arpaio

Answer 1

the controversial sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona, from 1993-2017, and self- proclaimed “toughest sheriff in America,” famous for his tough-on-crime methods, such as chain gangs and Tent City, which attracted both vocal supporters and detractors (A.C.L.U./A.I.)

Question 2

Tent city jail

Answer 2

an extension of the Maricopa County Jail, created by Sheriff Joe Arpaio in the 1990s in which inmates (about 2000) are incarcerated in military tents and thereby subject to Phoenix’s extreme temperatures, which has been criticized as a violation of human and constitutional rights.
