A 33-year-old Phoenix man is being held by sheriff’s deputies in Phoenix in connection with an Internet death threat against Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio for his ongoing investigation into the legitimacy of President Obama’s birth certificate.
Adam Eugene Cox was taken into custody at his home Friday by Phoenix deputies, along with sheriff’s officers from Knoxville, Tenn., on an unrelated warrant for assault and is being held as the prime suspect in the Arpaio death threat investigation, said Maricopa County Sheriff’s spokesman Jeffrey Sprong.
Deputies served a search warrant and seized a computer and other evidence from Mr. Cox’ home. The alleged threat against Sheriff Arpaio came to light in October 2011 in which Mr. Cox reportedly said in an Internet posting that the sheriff and his family would be killed.
Maricopa County officials said the postings read, “I plan to kill Arpaio first. He will be filled with a thousand bullet holes before the year is out. I promise you this … He will be buried 10 feet under and his whole family will be murdered along with him.”

Legislation MUST be signed by the Preident of the United States, Obaa is not legally the President of the United States therefore the Bill is not legal IT IS NOT LAW BECAUSE OBAMA IS NOT LEGALLY THE PRESIDENT.
This attempt against the life of Arpaio was reported in our local paper. No mention was made of Arpaio’s investigation into the legitimacy of Obama as being a possible reason. All kinds of other reasons were noted, but not Obama’s legitimacy. The press ought to be ashamed of themselves, if that’s possible.
