Mehrens said Judge Edward Burke dismissed [charges of theft and mishandling of public money] because the Maricopa County Sherrif's Office failed to disclose key pieces of information regarding the investigation.
Yet Sherrif Joe Arpaio said "We didn't botch anything."
(Both as quoted in today's East Valley Tribune.)
Something's wrong with this picture. Failing to disclose information such that a judge feels the need to throw out charges, that doesn't count as botching?
