Your Lord knows very well what is in your heart. Your soul suffices this day as a reckoner against you. I need no witnesses. You do not listen to your soul, but listen instead to your anger and your rage.
Officials say a temporary elections employee stole a security fob from Maricopa County's vote tabulation headquarters last week.
Walter Ringfield, a 27-year-old Phoenix resident, took the fob on the evening of June 20th from the facility, officials said. In a statement, officials said the fob was recovered and they will reprogram and retest election equipment to ensure the integrity of the upcoming state primary.
A Maricopa County Sheriff's Office spokesperson confirmed Ringfield was in custody on the morning of June 24th. Court documents show he is charged with felony criminal damage and misdemeanor theft, and that a search warrant was executed on his home. He is being held without bail, according to court documents.
Ringfield quickly shut down most of his social media, which included accounts on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and X. Ringfield's account on Donald Trump's social media platform Truth Social was still up at time of writing, however, and contains multiple reposts of pro-Trump content.
It included reposts from pro-Trump MAGA accounts like The Babylon Bee, Catturd, The Epoch Times, and Gateway Pundit.
The Maricopa County Elections office has been the target of multiple conspiracy theories surrounding the 2020 and 2022 elections. Republican Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer successfully sued MAGA Senate candidate Kari Lake for defamation after she publicly attacked his handling of the 2022 gubernatorial election.
