Sheriff Joe Rounds Up Deadbeat Parents & Spouses
Maricopa County Deputies Arrest Deadbeat Parents & Spouses

(CBS 5 News)--It was a day of reckoning for hundreds of people accused of
being either bad parents, or bad spouses.

More than 200 Maricopa County Sheriff's Deputies went door to door looking
for deadbeat parents, and domestic violence offenders. Sheriff Joe Arpaio
called it going after the real "turkeys" before Thanksgiving and at last
count, about sixty people had been rounded up during the massive operation.

It was a Sunday surprise for all of them. Some accused of owing thousands of
dollars to their kids and others wanted for domestic violence charges. Each
was a card in Sheriff Joe Arpaio's deck and by late Sunday morning, he had a
full house.

They weren't just deadbeat dads but moms too. Each shackled and slapped with
pink handcuffs. The accused criminals were processed together then hauled
off together and some accusing the Sheriff's Department of being mistaken.
