ABC15 Investigator Melissa Blasius has built a reputation for asking tough questions and taking action on behalf of Arizona families.

Arizona sheriffs are asking for more state taxpayer help to combat border-related crime, saying the federal government"refuses to perform its job."

Sheriff Rhodes said the additional money would provide for more deputies patrolling, more canine handlers and dogs, and better technology.
