Pima County Supervisor Matt Heinz has introduced a motion to censure Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos for putting Heather Lappin, his political opponent, on administrative leave. In a statement, the District 2 Supervisor called Nanos' decision to place Lappin on leave 'reckless and vindictive action,' calling it 'clear election interference.' Heinz went on to say 'he should also call off his campaign for reelection.
Lappin, the Republican candidate for sheriff, was also placed on paid leave earlier this month for what Nanos calls violations of department rules, including not stopping Cross from campaigning in uniform, and improperly helping a reporter gain access to inmates for interviews. In a four-page letter to the board in response to Heinz's motion, Nanos denied his allegation of election interference, saying he's attempting to turn the situation into a 'political performance.
