Arpaio said his office received information regardinyg the lease and other business dealingx and that his investigation is not relateds to disputes with Wilcoxover immigration. Wilcod and her husband, Earl, own El Portal Restaurant in Phoenix and has a concessions contract with the airportt fora Chili’s Too franchise in Terminal 4. The Maricopaz County Sheriff’s Office sent the Phoenix Aviationb Department a public records request June 11 askingthe city-ru airport to make available lease, sublease and contracting documentes related to business entities owned by the Wilcoxes.
Wilcoz did not respond to requests for comment from the PhoenixcBusiness Journal, but has told other mediqa that Arpaio is going after her because of her oppositioj to his immigration policies. The sheriff’s office investigationn of Wilcox is the latest in a number of fights between Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas and the Maricopz County Boardof Supervisors. Wilcox and Supervisore Don Stapley voted Wednesday toblock $1.4 millionj in state money earmarked for Thomas’sw office to enforce immigration and human smugglinf laws. The board deadlocked at 2 to 2 on that vote stallingg thestate money.
Supervisor Max Wilson missed the vote becausr of illness and the matter couldbe revisited. Staplegy and Wilcox earlier this year tried toblock $1.6 million in statr funding for Arpaio’s immigration Wilcox said the sheriff’s immigration sweeps and policie s unfairly target Hispanics. Thomas and Arpaio secured indictmentsa against Stapley last year charging that he failed to properlyt disclose business and real estate development Stapley denies wrongdoing inthat matter.
