I was asked if I would allow an outsider to create a BLOG post. I agreed. This post comes from the folks at Mark Goudeau's website. I know very little about this case and this is quite controversial. I am well aware that most cops won’t touch this with a 39 ½ foot pole.I don't live near Baseline and saw so many suspects come and go. I saw so much grand standing from Phil Gordon, Andrew Thomas and Jack “ass” Harris. After reading some of the evidence on Goudeau's site, and combine that with Dave Barnes accusations that the Crime Lab can't follow any SOPs - I do have my doubts that this guy Mark got a fair and impartial trial or wonder whether he was ever involved. From my own experiences the Phoenix PD and the prosecutor’s office will railroad you, if given an opportunity. I experienced this first hand.
Noticed I posted a "fun" picture of Mark and not his incarcerated one.
Here's the post. As Jiminy Cricket would say, “Let you consciences be your guide.” If any of you "experts" out there would like to weigh in on this, then please do.
BadPhoenixCops has permitted us to Blog on their site. We represent a group of people in Phoenix who believe and know Mark Goudeau is innocent of any crime and is not the infamous Baseline Killer. We think he was the "right guy/right time" - he was black, a former felon and now the scapegoat so that this case can close quickly. He was also a tool for grandstanding, "atta boys," and press releases for the personal gain Jack Harris, Phil Gordon and Andrew Thomas.
We believe this to be true. We base this on inaccurate statements of the DNA 'matches' made by the State's DNA technician, Lorraine Heath. I'm sure many of you know by now the issues of DNA - that Mark's DNA was far from a match – he only matched 3 of the 13 genetic markers (loci - literally 1,000s of others in Maricopa County alone will match those same 3 loci.) It is so far off, it is frightening. The DNA is inconclusive and that there never was a CODIS database "hit" as you have heard.
We know it is now too late for law enforcement since they had already sensationalized the arrest in the media. Jack earned his "5th Star" from Phil Gordon. The back-slapping has ended. Now they are doing whatever is necessary to cover their vices and inconsistencies, and ultimately convince the public that Mark Goudeau is evil. The Phoenix PD , the Mayor and Andrew Thomas will stop at nothing to conceal their mistakes and cover their asses. I also want to mention misconduct by the detectives on the task team. They’re the ones that I need information on. What they personally did. In particular Alex Fermenia and Palumbo.
We need your help. We know the lab is befuddled. We know the lab has suffered for years since they civilianized it and bringing in Tracey Montgomery to fix the back-log and clean-up is pointless. The fear the Phoenix PD has with David Barnes whistle blowing is that their house of cards will come tumbling down in an election year. Polombo is dirty and he was the right hand guy of Jack Harris while in PSB.
For those of you that know of the illegal tactics used directly in this case, inaction is unacceptable. Everyone is entitled to a fair and impartial trial – even guys like Mark. He may not have been perfect, but he was doing good things, had a good job and trying to make a decent life after having been previously incarcerated. Keeping silent and not revealing evidence on Mark is unconscionable.

Palumbo is a dirt-ball. In the 1990's he was investigated when he worked down south near Buckeye road for calling all the blacks "buckhwheats."
He called Chief Robinson a "nigger" so many times, I lost count. He is dirty, he is shit on a shingle and all the posts about him are true.
Robinson is also a dirty-ball -with his affair with Alonzo, Billy's suicide, EEO complaints and a recent affair he denied with a female cop, where she admitted to banging that Black Jabba-the-Hut, slob. She was moved over and out to Personnel.
We are interested in the misconduct of the detectives during the investigation, particularly that of Alex Femenia and of the searches of Mark’s home.
PSB has all the files. Request all investigations involving Palumbo over the years, including this year and all the lies he told in the one involving his current wife and the affair they had while he supervised her. Subpoena his ex-wife. She has the most reliable information on him.
This is an easy matter to clarify once and for all for any citizen to figure out. 1) Do a public request for Polumbo's cell phone records during the Baseline/Serial Killer investigations. 2) Do a public records request for his subordinate's (now current wife)cell phone records. Match the two to see how much time they were talking on their city phones vs. working the case. If it was excessive, they both violated policy by using city cell phones for personal use. 3) Do a public records request for Polumbo's overtime slips during the Baseline Killer/Serisl Shooter investgation. 4) Do a public records request for the overtime slips his subordinate (now current wife) during the Baseline Killer/Serial Shooter investigation. Compare the two to see if they "conviniently" worked the same overtime hours. If so, you have mis-use of public monies. 5) Do a public records request for Polumbo and his subordinates (now current wife) Weekly Timesheet Forms and see if they match work hours and Vacation Time and Compensation time they took off. 6) Depose all other detectives on the case and see if they observed Polumbo and his subordinate (now current wife) were working together more than what is reasonable. As a former Homicide guy, detectives don't work with closely with sergeants or they need 8 sergeants for an 8 person squad. Was Polumbo giving her more time and attention than the other detectives? 7) Depose Polumbo's ex-wife...she is going to tell you things about Polumbo that will blow this case wide-open. Be sure to ask about all the case files Polumbo kept in his garage contianing sensitive info like medical records of employees (HIPPA Violations), sensitve files/evidience on the Baseline Killer/Serial Shooters, etc. 8) Most importantly, depose Sergeant Karen Vance in Homicide. She brought all of this information forward when it was occurring and was theatened with a transfer. When she filed a hostile work environment complaint against Palumbo it was never investgated. She is the key to this entire matter since she is also very good friend's with Polumbo's ex-wife and saw what documents were left in his garage. She can also collobarate anything Polubo's ex-wife states in her deposition. She is more than willing to provide information but will only do so under a court ordered deposition so she recives no relation for her comments. It's that simple! Don't be surprised if you find Sergeant Kotecki working together all the time. Many people wonder if Pat or Mike is the "top" in that relationship?
Thanks very much for the information. We'll pass it on to Mark's attorneys. If anyone else has more that they can share, please keep it coming.
You should start a Mark Goudeau/Phoenix Police Homicide page. Also, a lot of people find it hard to navigate through and find all of the comments on your website. Many are not reading the good stuff. A lot of closed door meetings on the 4th floor over all the information being shared here. Word is the Chief's are very scared of what is yet to come out on the Goudeau case and all the problems in Homicide.
Thanks for your comments and please remember that your comments are anonymous. Additional information on others and the handling of this case would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
