Terry Johnson, North Carolina Sheriff, Will Not Settle Racial Profiling Charges By Justice Department, Says Attorney: An attorney for a North Carolina sheriff accused of illegally arresting Latinos without probable cause to boost deportations says the lawman isn't interested in a settlement with the U.S. Justice Department.
Attorney S.C. Kitchen told government lawyers Wednesday that Alamance County Sheriff Terry Johnson hasn't done wrong and his deputies don't discriminate.
The development sets up the potential for the federal government to sue the county.
