Profile Information

Something About Me and My Book:
Maricopa County is a place where first-time DUI offenders can find themselves facing thirty years in prison, where parents can find themselves woken up in the middle of the night, their bedroom filled with armed men and drawn guns, their home being invaded after the County Attorney suspects their child of viewing porn. The sheriff’s challenger in the last election woke up one morning to find himself defending allegations that he had raped his mother. And, the prior County Attorney, a Conservative Republican, ran television ads asking people to vote for the Democratic challenger of the existing County Attorney.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio and County Attorney Andrew Thomas are the two most controversial lawmen in the United States today. They both reside in Maricopa County, Arizona, where their respective departments are fraught with lawsuits and investigations of wrongdoing — all at taxpayer expense. Yet they remain defiant that their ultra-rightwing form of Western justice is what the American people want.

This story takes you through the heart-wrenching experience of one suburban family’s tragic encounter with Maricopa County justice soon after having their second baby. It shows how the Maricopa County Prosecutor abuses mandatory minimum sentencing to manufacture violent criminals out of ordinary citizens, and it exposes the dangerous truth about Sheriff Arpaio’s
infamous Tent City found nowhere else.

Holding multiple degrees, Daniel Horne, a business executive, husband, and father of two, is not your average violent felon.

Horne’s memoir, Accidental Felons, tells the story of a family’s trauma after he was involved in a DUI automobile accident with no serious injury. Horne explains why, after being sentenced to three years’ probation, he spent one torturous year in the county’s Tent City jail. He exposes mismanagement, greed, and the abuse of power by Arizona’s elected officials. He hopes his experience will spread awareness of these abuses across the state and around the world.

Horne holds a Master’s Degree in Finance, a Bachelor’s Degree in Business, and an Associate’s Degree in Engineering. He served as Chief Financial Officer for seven years with Inter-Coastal Electronics before health issues caused by his experience forced him to resign. He worked in the high-technology industry for 33 years and served honorably in the U.S. Navy. In addition to being a Vietnam Era veteran, he has lived in Tennessee, Virginia, Florida, Maryland, California, and Arizona.

Daniel Horne is currently self-employed. He specializes in publishing technology and government contract management. Besides writing, he enjoys painting and his family. He lives in Mesa, AZ with his wife and two young children.
