Your title is somewhat misleading. He arrested a GROUP of illegals, of which the 6 year old was a part, probably including her parents.
I have no problem with this. Send them back immediately.
Sheriff Joe arrests a 6 year old. Is Sheriff Joe really tough?

On the same day that President Obama announced
a policy that will make it easier for young undocumented immigrants to
remain in the United States, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's office
arrested a 6-year-old girl suspected of coming to America illegally.
The Arizona Republic reports
that the girl was with 15 other suspected undocumented immigrants who
were traveling to the Midwest and northeast United States, according to
Chris Hegstrom, spokesman for the Sheriff's Office.
"She's been turned over to ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement)
to try to determine where she's from. She told us she's from El
Salvador. That's what she told us," Hegstrom said.
KPHO reports that all the suspects paid between $300 and $3,500 to be illegally smuggled into the U.S., according to the Sheriff's office.
The arrests came Friday night, the same day that Obama announced his administration would not deport young undocumented immigrants under certain circumstance

During that time, the town had signed a contract to pay the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office $3.6 million for police services. But Sheriff Joe Arpaio didn't use the money to bolster his sex-crimes unit. Instead, the publicity-hungry sheriff's focus, as always, was on political witch hunts and pet projects that got his name in lights.
Victims of sex crimes — mostly children — in the town and throughout the county still are paying for Arpaio's misguided policies. Rapists and child molesters got away with their crime

And I wish some on SH would understand that people who enter the country illegally are criminals, not imigrants. That also applies to the "Constitutional scholar" in the White House.
Sheesh, no wonder we have problems, when we have misleading titles like this.
This poor kid was with a group of ILLEGAL aliens. Sherrif Joe stopped the whole group, and held them. They will be sent back to where they came from, and are welcome to try to come to the U.S. LEGALLY, like my grandparents did. If my grandpappy did it, so can they.
I never said it wasn't.
I said it was misleading, not innaccurate.
She was part of a group of criminals and he arrested all of them, not just the girl.
She was taken into custody, along with her parents, and turnd over to ICE for deportation as required by law.
As a Law Enforcement Officer, I can tell you that there is a difference between placed under arrest, being placed in custody. Most Civilians, and almost all of the media uses arrest for every incident.
The Deputies who discovered the human trafficking operation, brought the child to the Office, not under arrest, but in Custody for her own safety and protection.
Here are some facts you might be interested in reading.

Each of those taken into custody is believed to have paid between $300 and $3,500 to be smuggled into the country. The people in the van were believed to be on traveling to a handful of states, including California, Connecticut and New York.
