Justice Foundation seeking help to purchase rifles for deputies

48

The Pinal County Justice Foundation is seeking public assistance to assist our sheriff’s deputies with the war against the Mexican drug cartel members and their affiliates.

The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office is in need of funding to purchase rifles to arm our first responders who are charged with protecting our citizens. Dangerous incidents have increased through the past few years and are now escalating to a point where deputies are involved in high speed vehicle pursuits, shoot outs between deputies and smugglers, incidents of ambush, as well as the incident where a deputy was injured in a shooting.

These incidents show compelling evidence that Pinal County deputies need automatic rifles to not be outgunned by drug and human smugglers.

Sheriff Paul Babeu stated, “My deputies are outgunned and we are out manned. We need help to raise money to buy Arizona-made, semi-automatic rifles to fight this threat against our citizens.”

Click here to donate what you can to help protect our deputies, our families and our communities, while Arizona works toward securing our border and the smuggling corridors from dangerous criminals.

Your donation is a tax-deductible contribution.
