Bad Phoenix Cops, the 4th Floor and Our Public Records Request

We have been hearing so much about BadPhoenixCops from the 4th Floor, and how your leadership team continues to mention us and talk about us. We also hear how they continue their covert internal investigation on how we get our information and who is providing it to us. Keep up the good work folks! We love the data you are providing and don't forget to send us more photos of your AssClowns in Action!

We hear that Heather Polombo won’t lift her head above her cube, Mike is frazzled and on his witch hunt submitting records request for PLEA emails, Andy Anderson is blowing a gasket, Jack is so pissed at the recent AG stuff he can't see straight, Ronny Bear is sweating more than usually, and Soha has switched from Scotch to Vodka so that no one may smell it on him. With the latest info on the PLEA sight, many, many secret meetings are happening and the FOJ network is coming unraveled. Soon the rats will be leaving the ship.

In all this chaos, we at BPCs only thought it would be fitting to do our own records request on a few email accounts to see what was being said. We hear we are part of many emails. We submitted this today via certified mail to Andy Anderson and Patty Scofield.

We will let you know how it goes and we will let you know what type of response we get from Andy and what they provide to us. Our attorney is eagerly awaiting thier reply too (or lack of one).

So Andy, Jack Ass and the entire 4th floor:

You are on notice! We have 10 requests so far. We are waiting and everyone knows what we are expecting to see! And if it pisses you off - then good!

We will keep reminding you that all that needed to be done was an investigation and termination of Little Louie, Down Syndrome Huntley (aka Corky), Bullet-in-the-Ass Brokaw and Cackling Hen Renteria. It would have been so much easier then all of this...No?

Jack Harris is the Worst Phoenix Police Chief - EVER!!!

Oops!

We meant to say Public Safety Manager or Deputy Kiss Ass to Phil Gordon.

We just like to call him The Jack Ass or the King of Corruption or Liberace's Lost Brother.

We love the article and letter on the PLEA website. If you didn't have a chance to read it, click here:

http://www.azplea.com/content.php?info_id=477&PHPSESSID=fb2e8a1362d87515e2db66eb6327f5f9

You can also go to the AZ PLEA home page.

There is a letter and a packet that was walked over to Terry Goddard's office too.

KUDOS to PLEA for doing this!!

Maybe this will be the beginning of the end for Jack Harris. We here at BPC can only imagine what life will be like in the Harris residence when Jack goes home tonight.

Jack will walk in the door, pour a stiff drink, then sit down with his wife to discuss his quick retirement plan and fast exit from the PPD. LaJolla...Here we come!

We at BPC couldn't be happier about your bad news Jack. Sorry we helped bring to light your Golden Parachute Boondoggle.

As a matter of record, we are going to go and pour our own drink and celebrate the beginning of your demise! We'll drink the Soha Special in your Honor.

JD Hayworth's Show and Other Stuff

If you didn’t hear on JD Hayworth’s show (550-KFYI) on Monday, 9/22, he spoke about Jack Harris and how he isn’t a chief and the pension boondoggle that is taking place. I tried to find it streaming on the Web, but can’t. BadPhoenixCop did a call-in, but JD was running out of time and moving onto the next subject. We got a few words in, but not much.

One can only hope that a combination of PLEA and what has been posted on this site helped bring out Jack’s payola boondoogle. We saw on the Phoenix PD website that a guy was caught back in March, 2008 impersonating a cop – and we thought it was Jack Harris! If any of you out there have the balls to contact us, we will be more than willing to file a police report on Jack Harris impersonating a police officer! He isn’t a cop and he is impersonating one. Why isn’t he under arrest?

We too were a bit disturbed by the following comment on the BLOG:

…But the integrity of the Baseline Killer case would have been breeched..are you kidding me.. 7 people died needlessly because of the crimelab..that should have been overseen by Polombo..


We assumed a while back that if the Lab is broken and samples aren’t being process efficiently or effectively, then somewhere in Phoenix a crime is being committed or someone is dying. Sad but true and a fact that is probably being ignored or muted by the Jack Harris and the 4th floor.

A reply to this that was posted:

Wow..The last posting had such anger and the information that he had! That needs to be reported, but again, it never finds it's way to the city counsil.Have you lost your minds, statements like 7 people dead as a result of your Crimlab, and your going to keep it to yourself and not report something like this to the proper people..I'm no expert of PPD and im just looking at all the comments and this is a great web site, but by not taking this to the newspapers, Mayor Gordon, City Counsil, the Governor, someone, and if your comments are true, your just as bad as those ass clown Depart heads...withholding infomation like that is WRONG...What a joke...


Well we can give you some answers and maybe it is being reported, only in manner which has not been made public yet. But who exactly do you go to? Well let's go down our list...

• Mayor Gordon is playing stink finger or butt-pirate-bongo (depending on whom you speak with) with someone while falling off ladders and going through his divorce


• Frank Fairbanks is not going to drop his shorts and investigate his own stuff. He likes the Rainbow coalition

• The Governor is a democratic dyke and won’t do a damn thing. She's too busy campaigning for NO BAMA.


• Andrew Thomas has never prosecuted a Felony in his career so he doesn’t know what to do, except how to maliciously prosecute innocent, law-abiding citizens.

That leaves City Council, the Media and the Sheriff's Office.
We at BPC are trying to meet with City Council Members, we have contacted Sheriff Joe’s office and have reached out the news media.

Like in previous posts we recommend that you all continue to tell anyone and everyone about this site, the atrocities with the Lab, Jack Harris and the entire 4th floor of the PPD. Tell 10 people about this site and the comments - RIGHT NOW!

And let it grow like a weed (or as the diminutive Louie Tovar would say) a DICKWEED.

Open Letter and Response to MCSO

Thanks MCSO for reaching out to us. Below is the best example of what is posted on this BLOG - by Phoenix cops and what we discussed with you today. The website is http://www.badphoenixcops.com/

The below summary in blue, is typical and ought to be first in your investigation.

It is clear that Jack Harris and the management of the Phoenix PD are corrupt. Phil Gordon and Frank Fairbanks are no better. While we know that Sheriff Joe and Phil Gordon won't be exchanging Xmas cards this year, there are many people here who support MCSO and what you do.

We are all immigrants on some level, and illegal immigration must be stopped. I and many will gladly pay $6 for a head of lettuce or an extra $20 for a hotel room, providing we could get into a hospital within 20 minutes and know our cities are safe. If after reading this you wish to contact us, please call us or email us for an interview. As we mentioned, we have obtained counsel and won't rest until investigations, arrests, indictments and terminations come to the Asst. Chiefs, Commanders and Jack Harris of the Phoenix PD. The Phoenix PD tried to attack and maliciously prosecute us...and they failed. Now it's our turn.

Posted by a Phoenix Police Officer 9/8/2008

What sickens me is the fact that Mayor Phil Gordon, and his staff have possibly visited this site, read all the info, and are not demanding a full investigation into the alleged incidents of misconduct that have been reported on this website. Remember, the PPD's Operations Orders specifically demand that all allegations of misconduct, whether anonymous or not, will be investigated to the fullest to punish those who are guilty AND/OR exonerate those who are innocent.

All of the below have been reported on this website. Regardless if they are true or not, they must be investigated to proetc the innocent!Please Mayor Phil, as one of those who have been alleged to have been involved in misconduct, demand an investigation to clear those of us who are innocent! It is embarrassing to keep hearing my name in rumors knowing I am not guilty of what has been alleged! My family is humiliated by what is being said. Please protect the innocent!

It is important to note...I have no first hand information on any of the allegations on this website. I am not making any of the below allegations listed in my posting. Instead, I am repeating what I have understood from postings on which include:

Homicide Sergeant Mike Polumbo having an affair with a subordinate while being responsible for first line supervision of the Baseline Killer and Serial Shooter investigations. Ask those who worked the case and pull their cell phone records and overtime slips. If they match, you have a real problem!

Homicide (and former Internal Affairs) Sergeant Mike Polumbo keeping copies of criminal and administrative investigations in his unsecured garage at home. Ask his ex-wife. Many of these Interanl Affairs investigations most likely contained personal medical information protected by HIPPA and ADA.

According to postings, Sergeant Polumbo allegedly abandoned these reports in his garage when he left his wife and moved in with his subordinate Homicide detective girlfriend. What if some of the Baseline Killer/Serial Shooter info was in his garage and somehow made it into the hands of a neighbor, burglar, thief, etc., and was used to entrap the suspects in custody? Sounds wild but things like this have happened in Fulton County, GA, and Los Angeles, CA.

Postings alleging that Homicide Sergeant Mike Polumbo calling an Assistant Chief the "N" word in front of subordinates. Horrible if true!

Postings alleging that Homicide Sergeant Mike Polumbo had a previous affair with another PPD employee (do you see a trend here?).

Lieutenant Steve Soha and his DUI causing a city employee picking him up in Gilbert every morning so he can go to work while his license is suspended. This is his second DUI since being a PPD supervisor. His first (administrative DUI) occurred in the mid-90’s while a probationary sergeant and the second earlier this year in Gilbert. Are you going to wait until someone is killed in a DUI accident before you do anything. That will sure make for bad headlines!

Lieutenant Steve Soha and his rage issues involving other off-duty, drunken brawls on Mill Avenue in Tempe, citing on-duty parking attendants with parking citations while in an undercover capacity as a narcotics detective, verbal abuse of subordinates, etc.

Lieutenant Steve Soha’s threats against another lieutenant during an Honor Guard event which forced the victim lieutenant to obtain a Restraining Order against Soha (the sad part is the victim lieutenant could have beat Soha silly but chose not too due to the fact that he is a professional and did not want to bring discredit to the Honor Guard during a public event. This is the type of employee you should be promoting to Commander…not some boob simply because of the color of his skin).

Assistant Chief Tracey Montgomery’s alleged conduct with Gilbert PD officers on the night Lieutenant Soha was arrested for DUI.

Postings and rumors alleging Sergeant Ron Snodgrass having an affair with a subordinate and displaying nude photos of his wife to subordinates, on-duty, while in a public area in Internal Affairs Bureau.

Assistant Chief Andy Anderson and his off-duty road rage incident while chief of Internal Affairs. His 15 year old daughter was with him and could have easily been an innocent victim had the other driver been armed. Chief Anderson should have been terminated on the spot simply because of all the times these road rage incidents turn into killings of innocent citizens and then our city’s politicians going on television telling everyone how tragic these events are. Just the fact that he placed his minor child in such a dangerous situation that she could not escape from was enough to charge him criminally in my mind. Make an example out of Chief Anderson and send a strong message to the entire city that road rage will not be tolerated in our community much less by the chief of Internal Affairs (Mayor, you really missed a heck of a media opportunity here! Just think how powerful your message to the community would have been regarding zero tolerance of road rage in our community had you publicly held Chief Anderson accountable!).

The posting alleging Public Safety Manager Jack Harris and his voting on the AZPOST Board even though the Charter does not afford a "Public Safety Manager" position to sit on it.The posting alleging Lieutenant Dan Olson and Sergeant Ron Snodgrass, while on-duty and assigned to the Internal Affairs Bureau, failed to register their off-duty business as demanded by city Administrative Regulations.

Commander Louie Tovar and his inappropriate comments towards a civilian complainant which were tape-recorded.

Former Assistant Chief Bill Louis and his lack of truthfulness during the Unfair Labor Practice Lawsuit involving PLEA (just read the transcripts Phil...even the Hearing Officer said Louis was lying).

Looking into the matter involving the alleged suicide of Phoenix Police Officers Billy Soza and (name)???.

Numerous EEO complaints against Assistant Chief Kevin Robinson.

The fact that many command staff graduated from the NAU co-hort Masters Program and shared assignments, never took an exam and the fact that many subordinate police employees were instructors in this program making it impossible to objectively grade their ”bosses” work. Were city vehicles driven to classes?

Posting of incidents involving rancid and lewd parties at the home of Assistant Chief Tracey Montgomery one of which resulted in a rock being thrown through the window of her city vehicle.

Commander TJ Martin and his alleged possession and display of dildos to subordinates in his office at Cactus Park Precinct as well as grabbing the crotch of a sergeant (he must have done something wrong since he was transferred from the pristine assignment as commander of Cactus Park Precinct to the midnight shift without any type of explanation or investigation...duh!)!

Also, is anybody going to write a letter to the AZ Public Safety Retirement Board demanding the resignation of Lieutenant Stan Hoover and Sergeant Ron Snodgrass for their alleged dereliction of duties as posted on this website? These two have been found guilty of serious misconduct and/or been alleged to have committed serious acts of misconduct and they continue to sit on a board that manages the financial future of every public safety official in the state of AZ!

Mayor Gordon, how can anyone hold some rookie cop responsible for excessive use of force, or even something as minor as missing court, when you have these much more serious allegations of misconduct posted on this website? Any failure to investigate these allegations of misconduct cannot be allowed to occur if you want to maintain the credibility of our police department! Read the “Rampart Board of Inquiry” involving the LAPD. You will see there were many allegations and rumors of misconduct floating throughout LAPD but the command staff never “believed” them nor looked into them. Finally, after enough citizens were killed by officers, evidence planted on suspects forcing them to sit innocently in jail and LAPD command staff's failure to investigate allegations of misconduct did the Mayor of Los Angles demand an investigation. Then, after the Rampart Investigation was completed, cops went to prison, the city paid $145m in lawsuits, 106 convictions overturned, and the LAPD lost all credibility throughout the world…simply because nobody “believed” the rumors and allegations. Well, they were all wrong! Mayor, most importantly for you...”Reportedly, as a result of the scandal, Police Chief Bernard Parks was not rehired by Mayor James K. Hahn in 2001, which is believed to have precipitated Mayor Hahn's defeat by Antonio Villaraigosa in the 2005 election.” “There have been multiple allegations that Chief Parks and members of the LAPD were actively involved in obstructing the Rampart Investigation.” “According to Rampart Corruption Task Force Detective Poole, Chief Parks failed to pursue the Hewitt Investigation for a full six months. When Poole presented Chief Parks with a 40 page report detailing the connection between Mack and the murder of Notorious B.I.G., the report was suppressed.”The report also noted the Police Commission had been "undermined by the Mayor's Office" This is serious stuff! Is this happening by our Mayor's office right now?Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rampart_Scandal

Please Mayor Gordon, investigate to clear the innocent so this humiliation will stop. Please don’t let this happen here in Phoenix! You owe this to me, as a loyal city employee with over 20 years of flawless service! If you don’t investigate, and the webmaster from this website demonstrates that you or any of your assistant's ISP (computer) visited this site, you will not be able to defend yourself!

If the city will not investigate to punish the guilty and clear the innocent, I pray the New Times Newspaper, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, or one of the Investigative News Teams will look into the matters reported on this website. Maybe all allegations will be unfounded..maybe they will not…we will never know until you investigate! My money is on many, if not most listed on this website, are in fact true!

Mayor Gordon, I don’t know if anything posted on this website is true. But, how can you publicly criticize Sheriff Joe Arpaio on the manner in which runs his department when these allegations of your departmnt are brought to your attention? Sheriff Joe…please help me if my own Mayor won’t!

Help us Sheriff Joe!!! You are our only hope!!

The Lab is Broken, Samples aren't Being Processed - And Tracy Is Putting in the Hallway...

At least if you are going to putt at work, do it right!

We hold a handicap of 7 (really!!!) and we can at least teach you how to putt correctly.

Whoops!!!!! Did you hear that?

I think someone else was just murdered because a Lab sample wasn't processed. We could have caught the guy months ago, but practicing our putting in the hallway was far more important!

Do you see this Mayor Phil?

And to think, we only have 27,000 requests to fullfill!

Hit em' well Tracy! We'll see you and Soha at the 19th Hole!

Hopefully, good old Harold Hurtt isn't driving his car home again from the course! Where's Wally when you need him!

Tracey Montgomery and the Problems with the Lab

“If any of you have any questions or problems with the Lab, then just let me know, and don’t BLOG about it.” – or something along these lines - as stated by Tracey in a recent meeting.

Well Tracey, Dave Barnes did let you know and you labeled him a trouble maker and were going to make an example of him for Lab bashing, so that other people would think twice before they critiqued you. Why on God’s-Green-Earth would we tell you anything directly? All you will do is cover it up, blame us and begin your NOI against us for something lame and not invite us to your parties. Plus Blogging is much more fun!

You claim we are backlogged with 27,000 requests in the Lab?

27,000?? Are you fucking kidding us?

How do you plan on processing 27,000 requests? By dumping 26,990 of them in the dumpster? Leaving 26,990 in Polombos garage?

How many people are dying or will be killed due to your failure to manage this Lab correctly? 40+ job REQs aren’t going to do shit at this point. We heard Phil Gordon was shitting Twinkies when he heard how bad things were there. We heard a major problem in this wonderful high-tech Lab was Software related. You either couldn’t get or find software to ensure it runs effectively. You should have called us. We know software better than most and could have given you some solutions and some options, but it appears you would rather have people die needlessly and have crimes continue, due to your own ineptitude and arrogance.

A smart "get-things-done" leader would consider outsourcing some of this immediately (yesterday) to a reputable third party Lab to gain some ground and clear the backlog. But you of course are too stupid to recognize this or accomplish this. We will bet 27,000 is a very conservative number too. You need to figure each request probably has multiple inquiries.

Let’s see Tracey: You can’t manage a Lab, You can’t manage a subordinate like Soha and you clearly can’t manage yourself or any of your indiscretions – and you want us to openly come to you with comments and suggestions on the Lab?

Tracey: Is there anyone who you can say, you have inspired? Is there any accomplishment you could provide to us that substantiates and validates you as an Asst. Chief or a leader? Is there anything in your background that qualifies you to manage a Lab, any swab you have ever taken or had analyzed other than your own Pap smear?

You want advice on the Lab?

Here’s one: Quit. Leave. Resign.

There's not a problem with the Lab. There's a problem with the morons who manage the Lab and how they take the time to throw Dave Barnes under the Bus for bringing it to their attention. How could you blame Barnes when he has another AssClown like Polombo wrecking havoc on his career with fabricated NOIs?

Admit you are a failure and get out Ms. Montgomery.

You suck.

You have achieved the Peter Principle, or we should rename it the Tracey Montgomery Principle.

That’s our suggestions on the Lab.

We should start sending all of you mentioned here an official FTD AssClown Bouquet of Flowers, noting you as inept, ignorant and a true blue Phoenix PD Certified AssClown.

Mike Polombo and his Bogus Investigations

BPC had dropped off at our door this AM some documents that show more gamesmanship and internal corruption by Mike Polombo. On October 18, 2007 an officer was issues an NOI related to the Baseline Killer. In this NOI this officer was accused (apparently by Mike Polombo) that he leaked information to the news media on Adrian McCormick, Omar Hralima and a PowerPoint that was intended for the Grand Jury.

Needless to say officer Dave was a bit shocked and hurt by the accusations. A few of the alleged news reports were reported by separate news stations, while others were somewhat public in the PPD and could have been told by virtually anyone. For whatever reason, Mike Polumbo was convinced and assured that this officer was the source of the leaks, or just simply want to mess with someone's career.

On February 18, 2008 (4 months later) the NOI was concluded. After obtaining the accused officers cell phone records it was determined that “No information was found which would support the allegations listed on the Notice of Investigation” signed by Ken Mentzer (#4931). This Investigation was purged according to internal procedures but who really cares, as the damage was already done.

So naturally the accused officer went back and asked the question we all would, “How did this happen and what evidence was provided by Mike Polombo to warrant an NOI?” the answer he received is not surprising or shocking; what we all know here and how the FOJ network operates.

This all of a sudden wasn’t an “Investigation” but merely an ”Inquiry” by the department, therefore any indicia, records or information that Mike Polombo had was not going to be provided or shared with poor officer Dave. That's like saying, "That's not a bullet in your body sir, but merely a piece of lead."

Who has given Mike Polombo carte blanch to maliciously accuse anyone of anything without any repercussions? Does this go on every day at the PPD? One may simply accuse someone of some injustice and not be held accountable as long as you are an FOJ? Perhaps it was Polombo who leaked whatever, to whomever, and this was his way of covering up the trail by accusing another officer. Why doesn't someone investigate that? This report reads like the Salem Witch Trials.

It is no wonder that people have an ax to grind against Polombo. Is this the crap he is pulling in Homicide? Then this jerk was in PSB under chief Jack Ass?

Mike Polombo: I know you and Heather read this Blog. Why don't you grow some testicles and tell us your version of this story and why you had an innocent officer investigated and what evidence you had to support it? Fair is Fair Mike. How would you like it if every officer attached to BPCs began accusing you of stuff? You know Mike, having files at your home violated HIPAA laws. Perhaps we should begin an investigation on you for that, among other things? BPC will do a records request on all your emails to see what we may find.

Thanks to the cops who dropped this off IN FULL UNIFORM.

The Code of Silence is Broken

Jack, his Assistant Chiefs and all the FOJs are like long-tailed cats in a roomful of rocking chairs.

The Code of Silence is Broken.

The rumors are true. We meet with more cops in a week, then Michael Napier. They come to us in droves - current cops, retired cops, soon-to-be retired cops, cops that got screwed by PSB, Jack and FOJs. We meet for coffee, we meet for dinner, we meet in homes, we meet in groups, we meet in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe and Glendale. We meet with them in their uniforms and they drive to meet us in their Police cars! They bring documents and proof of corruptions and cover-ups.

They are feed up with Jack Harris, the Asst. Chiefs, and all the FOJs who are mentioned here.

We meet with the wives of cops! These are the best! They aren’t the kind of meetings that some cops mentioned here had (Mike), but these ladies have had to deal with 15, 20, 25 years of their husbands and their livelihood existing in a system of corruption and ineptitude, most recently with Jack Harris. They listen to crap every night for years and just don’t care anymore and are trying to save their marriages. The best accolades we get are from these wives who tell us that their husbands, after years of persecution, now see hope. Their husbands now laugh. They smile. They have a renewed sense of purpose – all because of this site, what gets posted here, and what is happening.

Keep spinning your wheels Jack Ass and the 4th floor.

You’re all just too stupid to figure it out and figure out what’s going on here. There was a time when a cop showing up at our door meant trouble and now they come bringing years of corruptions and cover-ups. You can't hurt them anymore. Any punishment you deal out is so far less then being brought up and mentioned here!

Want proof of that? Have you spoken to or seen Polombo lately? The man is frazzled and coming apart at the seems. His big book deal he was hoping for is over. The investigations are coming. It's going to be like a freight train going up his ass. The man can't probably pee straight at this point. This Blog has rocked his Foundation! You better send this guy on a forced medical leave before he snaps.

We bet never in a million years would you have thought it was going to go this way. We bet you never thought civilians would have you all running around so frantically and creating chaos and pandemonium on the 4th floor. There isn’t a precinct we don’t have access to, a division we don’t have allies, a meeting that doesn’t occur where a BPC cop is there, listening. Our ears and eyes are everywhere, and it’s sometimes the guy/gal sitting next to you or behind you! They learned from the best on how to deceive! They’ve been watching you Jack and your Band of Losers for years and now its time for payback.

And it’s growing. Each week it grows.

So Jack…Is this the “fucking nature of game” that Louie Tovar mentioned in those fateful voicemails? Don’t you wish you just did your investigations and fired the whole bunch of them when we asked?

We like this game Jack. It’s a game we play well. And unlike you, we don’t simply play the game “not to lose.” We play to win! We keep hearing you and Lannon are leaving in December. Why don’t you both just leave now quietly and save everyone the trouble? You could take the rest of your Snakes like Polombo, Snodgrass, Montgomery, Anderson, Hoover and Soha with you!

Oh yeah… one more thing…..Andy Anderson: Our record request was sent to you. Don’t get too mad. They’re only emails we want to see! We think these emails will tell a good story for our "research." We heard you flipped out at the first request for emails. Maybe by now you have cooled down. We will await your reply. More requests are to come.

Hey Tracey - Should The Pins Be Eternal Flames or Rats?

Tracey:

A long time ago our Grandfather told us, “That if you feel you’ve been insulted, odds are, you probably deserved the insult.” If you read what is posted here and what your peers are stating about you, you only have yourself to blame.

Case and point: Very recently (heck …it was just the other day) you sat in a Uniform Committee Meeting to discuss the PSB pins and how they should be an “Eternal Flame” for Trust and Integrity. During this robust discuss, your buddy Steve Soha kept commenting (we hear at least ½ a dozen times…maybe more) how it ought to be a “Rat.” It was both annoying and condescending at the same time. It wasn’t funny. What does Stan Hoover and George Richards think of that? That Soha thinks PSB’s pin ought to be a “Rat?”

Here’s the point, in case you missed it. Soha should be off The Radar. He can’t get back into the Marines because of his DUI and he is wasting taxpayers’ money getting chauffeured everywhere he goes. He has no where to go and can only now work at the PPD. He won't be able to get a job with Louie Tovar at the Target on Bell/7th with his record. No job on this planet offers a free ride to/from work. If he had ½ a brain, he would be quite, go to AA, crawl into some administrative hole with the Homeland Security Bureau and let the dust settle. Clearly this is not the case.

Next time you see Steve, check the soles of his feet.

Really.

I will bet one foot says “Tracey” and the other “Montgomery” for the way he just walks all over you and disrespects you! One of the best test of leadership is when someone rises through the ranks to manage their peers, and how the - now subordinates - act and react. It is clear that Soha has no respect for you, your position or any superior. Starting fights with a Lieutenant at an Officer's Funeral? Even the Gilbert cops were going to give him a break until this A-Hole flashed his badge and said, "Hey, I'm with Homeland Security." Is this really what you want to associate with?

If you had any smarts, you would have stopped the meeting or made a blatant and overt comment to Soha, publically stating how obtuse and inappropriate his comments were. This would have begun to establish some credo with you and set you apart as a leader.

But you didn’t.

It is clear to everyone that Soha’s mouth is good for two things – saying stupid things and drinking booze. All you are good for is covering for him and wasting more time on Pins and what a uniform looks like. It is clear to everyone else you simply don’t have the chutzpa to lead, manage or inspire. You are your own Rat. A Lab Rat. You are part of the Diversity experiment with Fairbanks, Gordon and Washington. Sort of ironic that you have oversite for a Lab....No?

So when you go home at night and you and your Prosecutor friend lament over the day and the insults on this site, while watching re-runs of Cagney and Lacey, just think about how these comments get teed up, and if they are rightfully deserved.

Life isn't simply about Rainbows! It's about hard work, perseverance, and the journey one takes.

Application for a Position with Sandra Renteria

We heard that Sandy sacked two officers recently, so we thought we might apply for a position with her. We loved watching Adam12 and Emergency! as kids. Here is why Sandy and the PPD should hire us:

1) We heard Sandy in the voicemails with Louie Tovar. This cackling hen saying “Yeah” is nothing short of sexy. Nothing is finer then to hear a woman agreeing with and supporting a boss with a Napoleon complex, like Louie Tovar.

2) We are civilians just like Jack Harris. That ought to qualify us for at least a Sergeant or Lieutenant position – and we might even consider testing for it! Perhaps you could offer us an honorary Colonel position – like Colonel Sanders or Colonel Tom Parker? We bet we could swindle our way into a Board position with AZ POST with a fancy title like that!

3)We don’t drink and drive, we don’t lie, we won’t cover things up, we don't sexually harass, and we promise to investigate and be honest – can we be Phoenix Cops if we have scruples?

4)Our nephew has Autism. It’s very tough, be we handle it well and it tests our strength daily. Any person with a special needs person in their family understands what we are going thru. It gives us great experience for working with utter morons like Brandon Huntley, Anthony Brokaw, Steve Soha, and Jack Harris.

5) We like to think we coined the phrases “Fucktard” and “Assclown.” Perhaps we can integrate these 2 words in the daily life of the PPD and all their reports. EX: “That fucktard Kevin Robinson failed - yet again - with another EEO complaint,” or “Andy Anderson is such an Assclown for creating a road rage incident with his daughter in the car...”

6) We can throw wilder more outrageous parties than Tracey Montgomery and everyone gets to keep their clothes on!

7) We think what Dave Barnes did was commendable, as a matter or record, downright ballsy! We would be doing this E-V-E-R-Y-D-A-Y!

8) Unlike sergeant Polombo we never like taking work or evidence home – so you have no worries there and no cross contamination to worry about.

9) We could bring some fun to the department…Bring your pets to work on Mondays, Flip-Flop- Fridays, Ron Snodgrass Hawaiian shirt Wednesdays, Dildo Thursday Nights with Martin, Tequila Tuesdays with Soha, Pin the Tail on the Jack Harris, sumo wrestling with Kevin, Gladiator nights with Blake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHEivPHjimw an Assclown of the Week Award– the possibilities are endless!

10) We could also moonlight as writers for PLEA and THE RECAP. I understand that a few of your sergeants and lieutenants have a side business training other officer on company time and at the tax-payers expense, so our writing shouldn’t be a problem.

Won’t you please hire us? We think we could make a wonderful addition to the Phoenix PD.

(If the cops who were sacked by Sandy want to reach out to us and tell their story, then please contact us. We would love to hear from you!!!)

Was that Really a Threat from you, Officer XXXX?

I think we received our first official threat!

No sense calling the Police since you’re all reading about it here! Stan Hoover and PSB are not going to investigate it or they will just hide, misplace or lose the request.

It came across indirectly as, “You have struck a nerve. Watch your back. XXXX wants you dead.”

Trust me. This does not instill any fear in us, as a matter of fact it gets us pissed and fired up! Our attorney has the email as more fodder for the Civil Rights case against Jack, Phil and the City of Phoenix.

To the person who sent it and to Officer XXXX– Go fuck yourselves. If the statement is true, the sender is equally culpable since s/he heard it, witnessed it, stated it and did nothing.

Do you really think we are afraid of you? I mean...really afraid of You and the PPD? We have reached a point where we probably have more friends in the PPD then you do!

I’ll be around all week waiting for you Officer XXXX.

We are currently sitting at Starbucks on Raintree and the 101. Please come by. Later this AM, we are meeting with another cop who hates your guts so much - he wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire. He is giving us more internal records and more dirt on you Officer XXXX, so I can’t tell you about that meeting! Oh, and just so you know, we are going on the offensive Officer XXXX and are going to find out anything and everything about you and will publish it here. If you so much as fart at your desk or had the Crabs in high school, we will know about it. Your peers think you are piece of white trash, so it will be very easy.

Most of the late morning/early afternoon I have free and I can come down to 620 if you like. How about we meet at Tom’s Tavern for lunch? How about the plaza in front of the Council Chamber? You ping me back and let me know when and where Officer XXXX. On Sunday, I plan on attending the Big Cult church at 67th and Happy Valley (CCV). I hear Snodgrass attends, and an Old Catholic like me would like to see Snodgrass and his fellow Pentecostal come-to-Jesus-freaks put on a good show.

I'll make it very easy for you Officer XXXX. Just tell me when you want to meet and where you want to meet, and we will meet you.

We've said it before and we will say it again anyone of you that wants to meet - Jack Ass Harris, Soha (if he can bum a ride), Little Louie Tovar, Bullet-in-the-Ass Brokaw, Down Syndrome Huntley, Cackling Hen Renteria, Road Rage Andy, Dildo Martin, Donut Bumping Montgomery or SwampAss Snodgrass -

We will say right to your face what we publish here.

Why not make it a big party Officer XXXX? I hear a lot of chief's hang at Hooters off of Bell Road and/or live just south of Desert Ridge, near Bell/56th. How about we have a nice group meeting Officer XXXX? You get your fellow dirty, corrupt, lying cops together and we'll show up.

We can consider it an unofficial "off the record" meeting, which gives you some honest, civilian input and what we really think of you all and your phony chief, Jack Harris.

How about it?

If Jack Harris is a Reserve Officer – What Test Did He Take To Be The Chief of Police?

The Jack Harris boondoggle had him hired back after his retirement, as a Phoenix Police Reserve Officer at a rate of $4,000 per week. So we don't even have a "real" Chief on Police, just a regular guy with a gun who is our "Public Safety Manager." He also sits on the Board of AZ POST as the Chief of Police when he isn't. This reminds me of the guy who owns a boat and wears a blue yachting jacket with a captain hat, and thinks he is an admiral in the Navy.

There already appears to be an Asst. Chief above the Reserve Officer division so does Jack work for this Asst. Chief? If not, then how does a Reserve Officer have an Asst. Chief reporting to him?

I also understand that in order to hold any supervisory position in the Reserves, you need to be tested. Did Jack take these tests?

So what test did Jack exactly take or was this another pension cover up by his buddy Snodgrass?

9/11 Pins Are An Issue - But Donut Bumping Parties in Ahwatukee Are A-OK??!!??

We found this article both funny and shocking at the same time. Here is the Link on the AZ PLEA website.

http://www.azplea.com/docs/Pins%20Are%20Petty%20Issues.pdf?PHPSESSID=86e6999cd9136757808117c3ae3e4782

Maybe we can be Ghost Writers for the next issue of RECAP? How about it Mark? We have some great stories to tell!

If you don’t know this story, Asst. Chief Tracey Montgomery was at a function and told a junior cop to remove his 9/11 pin because (we guess) it violated uniform policy.

So this Asst. Chief approached an officer and told him to remove his pin???

What an insensitive byotch! C U Next Tuesday – Tracey!

Was it really that important? Were his shoes not spit-shinned for the photo?

If I recall correctly there wasn't there an incident in Glendale where Asst. Chief Montgomery was involved in a Mexican stand-off with 2 other ladies, and also retired Sergeant Charlie Gwinn had to do surveillance at her house in Ahwatukee after her neighbors complained about the unusual activity going on which lots of woman appeared to be going and coming (no pun) at all hours? Did this violate policy Tracey? Were uniforms involved in your indiscretions, or were they simply crumpled up on the floor in a big pile?

And then there are photos of 2 other Asst. Chiefs (Road Rage Anderson and Pena) photographed with the same pin in what looks to be their senior picture photos?

(Andy....the dreams over Dude....lose the comb over...) - Did you tell them too to remove their pins?

Rome is burning here and Nero is fiddling away!

Ms. Montgomery, we know cops love donuts, but you have taken that to a level most of us can't simply imagine. We have no objection to a woman who likes the hooch - many of us here posting like it ourselves - but please...to bug some cops over pins?

How about no open mouth kissing at public functions, no public displays of drunkeness, no wild parties and start acting like a leader? You have been given and blessed with an immense amount of responsiblity. Grow up and start acting like an adult.

Leadership is about setting examples and taking charge...I would suggest you read Rudy Giuliani's book on Leadership and stop worry about the damn petty pins. The pins aren't the Broken Windows. You are!

When is a Police Chief, not Your Chief of Police? When his name is Jack Harris!

We need to have some senior; supervisors contact us here at BadPhoenixCops on the Deferred Retirement Program (DROP).

From what we gather, Jack Harris was on this program, retired, and then was hired back as a civilian with the title of Public Safety Manager (we had the same title in Elementary school, each time we had a fire drill…)

– yet he still expects to be called Chief of Police?

We just don’t know how this is legally done. Are Phil Gordon and Frank Fairbanks that inept and lazy? Is the corruption that direct and blatant that we can’t get a real police chief on an outside executive search?

One can only assume that Jack Harris’ buddy Ron Snodgrass (#2141) who has managed and negotiated for the pension board, most definitely went to bat for and negotiated another sweet deal for Jack. And one wonders why Jack won’t have him investigated, disciplined or reprimanded? Do you think Jack knows about his side business?

Our tax dollars spend $4000 a week for Jack to be a wanna-be chief of police. I think we could afford a "real" Police Chief. Don't you?

Geez, if it takes a civilian to do the job, I'll do it for $2000 per week, and do it right by going out and recruiting my own officers. I would immediately institute a "no fraternization policy," put all the asst. chiefs back on patrol ,and give them the guns that Andy Anderson claims they have and need!

If there are any supervisors out there who would like to contact us and give us some of the internal facts about DROP, we would appreciate it. We imagine you might be quite perturbed knowing about Jack's “civilian” boondoggle status.

I found the posting to the Blog about AZ POST, interesting. In case you missed here are the deets again, straight from the AZ POST site it states:

"The Arizona Peace Officer Standards & Training Board was originally comprised of nine members, appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate. The Board included two sheriffs, two chiefs of police, a college faculty member in public administration or a related field, the state attorney general, the director of the Department of Public Safety, and two public members.In 1977, the statutes were revised to require one sheriff come from a county with a population exceeding 200,000 and one sheriff from a county with a population less than 200,000. Additionally, one police chief was to be from a city with a population exceeding 60,000 and one from a city with a population less than 60,000. In 1984, Board membership was expanded with the addition of the director of the Arizona Department of Corrections and an administrator of a county or municipal correctional facility."

So this begs the question, where does a Public Safety Manager like Jack Harris fit into this and is he a violation of the Board?

Ron Snodgrass, Jack Harris, Dan Olson, and the AZ POST

Jack Harris sits on the Board of AZ POST (the Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training Board)

We were able to obtain the meeting minutes from their site on their August 20, 2008 meeting. Jack Harris was in attendance at this meeting. On Page 3 of these meeting minutes, there is an entry for “Case # 8 – Stephen Boltz – Scottsdale Police Department.”

Here is a link to the site page with the meeting minutes

http://www.azpost.state.az.us/

Scroll down to August 20, 2008 and read the minutes of the meeting Jack Harris attended.

Why is this important?

It’s clear, Jack Harris attended the meeting on August 20, 2008. Records show this.

What is paramount is Jack Harris’ vote on an 8-month suspension of this Scottsdale Officer (Stephen Boltz ) The AZ POST minutes state “...seconded by Mr. Duarte, motion carried unanimously.” When Jack Harris’ friend and buddy Ron Snodgrass (#2141) was brought up on similar charges and much worse – he was accused of creating a hostile work environment for a female worker and sexually harassing her – all Ron received was a written reprimand from Jack Harris in the PPD. The Board on the PPD that reviewed Ron Snodgrass’ case recommended an 8 hour suspension – but Ron Snodgrass’ friend Jack Harris overruled it by scribing “written reprimand.”

We can only assume that it is the chief’s discretion whether or not to bring such cases to AZ Post meeting. Naturally, Ron Snodgrass was never ever addressed at AZ POST. So the wanna-be -chief-but-really-just-a-citizen-like-the-rest-of-us, Jack Harris will vote for the 8 month suspension of a Scottsdale cop who only viewed and stored porno images on his own, work computer; but when Jack’s friend takes it further by having images on his desk, shows them to woman, and uses innuendo and dirty talk to get a married woman in bed; then all Jack gives his friend Ron, is a written reprimand???

Think something about this is rotten? Then read a little further on Ron Snodgrass.

Ron Snodgrass is a trainer with a company called Preferred Training Solutions, LLC in Glendale, AZ. These folks appear to run Early Warning/Intervention Systems Conferences. While most might commend Ol’ Ron Snodgrass for his entrepreneurial spirit, most of you might be shocked to know that the website lists his former boss Dan Olson (a Lieutenant with the PPD), in PSB as a co-founder. (The website was changed recently to remove Dan's name - but we found it!)

It is also to be rumored that Ron is a founder himself, but we are confirming that with the AZ Corporate Commission records. The AZ records state that the business was formed in the name of Kenneth Johnson (another PPD officer) in January, 2003. He later added another Johnson (most likely his wife) - Laurie Jean, to the LLC in October, 2006.

Here's the Link

(It's nice these public records request can't be lost, misplaced or destroyed by Stan Hoover!)

Now think about this for just a second.

You are working in a side business, where your boss is listed as a co-founder. Do you think for just a minute that your boss might be slightly apprehensive to properly manage you, reprimand you, suspend you or fire you? Now do you think Dan Olson lost his position as "co-founder" on the website, or do you think someone was trying to hide the fact that he (and Ron Snodgrass) is/are affiliated with Preferred Training Solutions, LLC?

Check out the page here:

God help us all if Ron Snodgrass is instructing officers nationwide as the site states. Is it classes on how to download good porn? The cause and effect of plastic surgery on ugly women? How to use a "C" drive to hide your granny and tranny porn? How to sexually harass employees that are attractive, blonde females and not get caught? How to host a meeting, not invite someone, then reprimand them for not coming?

Sweet Jesus - I can't believe these cops are actually sworn to protect us!

You can bet as soon as this BLOG is posted, these guys will significantly modify their site or shut it down to hide Ron Snodgrass and Dan Olson.

When we talk about FOJ - Friends of Jack - and Jacks inability to reprimand his friends and cover up investigations - this is what we mean.

Guys – there is absolutely something Rotten in Denmark – or at least in the Commander structure of the Phoenix PD. Corruption, nepotism and cronyism are rampant. Until Jack Harris, Phil Gordon and Frank Fairbanks leave, or the DOJ comes in, nothing will change.

Hence this is why we have this site and our BLOG.
