Update: Cases Against Wilcox, Stapley, Donahoe Dismissed
In the ongoing battle between the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, Andrew Thomas and Sheriff Joe Arpaio, Mary Rose Wilcox has scored a victory.

A judge dismissed the indictment against Supervisor Mary Rose Wilcox, who was accused of conflict of interest, perjury and false swearing. In Tuesday's ruling, Judge John Leonardo accused Thomas of attacking the Board of Supervisors to further his political career.

After Leonardo's ruling, Thomas filed to dismiss the cases against Supervisor Don Stapley and Judge Gary Donahoe.

On a side note, it's been a busy sweeps month at CBS 5 News and KPHO.com. I'm working on another round-up post to catch up on everything we've missed.
