Arizona Sheriff Deputies Use Pink Handcuffs

Maricopa County Sheriff’s deputies began using fluorescent pink handcuffs Thursday to transport inmates. Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he introduced the pink handcuffs because he was tired of losing them to his own deputies and other law enforcement agencies. Arpaio said he assumes nobody else has pink handcuffs, so they will be easy to spot. Maricopa County inmates wear pink boxers and sleep on pink sheets — via Warren Ellis
