Congratulations to the New Times reader who goes by the handle shadeaux14, you are the proud winner of this week’s New Times You Write the Caption contest.
On Friday, we asked readers to provide what they think would be an appropriate caption for the above photo of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s PR puppy, which he used in an attempt to deflect questions about hundreds of botched sex-crime investigations bungled by the MCSO between 2005 and 2007.
We picked the five best reader captions and put it to a vote.
