Sheriff Joe Arpaio is out with new fashion designs for some of his female inmates aimed at discouraging kids from using drugs.
After starting the first female chain gang in the U.S. over a decade ago, he's now making them wear pink outfits reading "I was a drug addict."
Arpaio introduced the new outfits on a gang of 15 women who were out picking up trash near 40th Street and McDowell.
The women on this chain who used drugs have such sad and tragic stories about what it did to their lives, Arpaio says. Each says they are willing to contribute to the effort of helping others make better choices than they did.
Good job Joe!
