Each month in 2014, KTAR.com will feature the top 10 stories from the past month.

June’s headlines on our site were dominated by a Mesa high school student who hand-painted her prom dress, turning it into a work of art. A lot of people were also talking about the “hot mug shot guy,” whose photo inspired an Internet meme and a lot of conversations. The month was capped by the news that some federal employees could be charged after it was revealed thousands of illegal immigrants were being dumped in Arizona.

We want to hear from you.
