Blogger Jeff’s Response from Ed Zuercher and David Cavasos, on His Complaint of Perjury by the Lying Dick – Theron Quaas

In early May, Blogger Jeff sent letters alleging all kinds of Ops Order violations, on the lying detective "DICK" Theron Quaas. Letters have been sent to David Cavasos, Ed Zuercher, the US Attorney Kevin Burke and to AZPost on Theron Quaas’ multiple perjury testomonies.  This occured not only during blogger Jeff’s and Dave Barnes’ case, but they found a case in the city of Maricopa where Theron Quaas lied as a borrowed errand boy for Phoenix Police chief Jack "Ass Harris.  We blogged all about Theron Quaas and his lying here and why we think he should be added to BRADY:

We continually here from our internal sources how little Theron wants the brass ring so badly, he goes around messing with cops at the request of Chief Jack "Ass" Harris.  Maybe Theron's latest job will be to wax Jack Harris' new Corvette his wife Connie bought him.  Remember Biff at the end of Back to the Future II?

Besides the obvious criminal element, here are the Operations Orders Theron Quaas violated by lying to a Grand Jury –and it is a Class E violation (these are taken word4word, directly from the Phoenix Police Department's own Operations Orders - thanks to the good Phoenix cops who let us know which one's to look for...)

Violations of Operations Order 1.1, section 2, subsection B2 (page 1)– “We pledge total accountability for our actions” Part C1 – The unique service we provide to the community demands the highest degree of public trust, and we will not tolerate the violation of that trust; Part C2 - We demand the highest degree of integrity and professionalism from all members of the department; Part C3 - We aspire to the highest ideals of personal conduct in every word and deed, and our behavior should inspire and sustain the confidence in the community.

Violation of Operations Order 3.13, section 6A, subsection 1 (page 11) – Employee Truthfulness – a lie is defined as presenting false material, information or concealing material and or relevant facts or evidence. This can occur by omissions, statements, conduct, or assertions which the employee knows or believes are false, misleading or deceptive. Part 2 – Employees will not lie during any Department criminal and/or administrative investigation or in matters of legitimate concern to the Department, which includes but is not limited to: Submission of Department reports, Testify in Court.


Classification Guidance Criteria – Operations Order 3.18 – Addendum A (Page 8 of REV 12/09) CLASS E – Critical Violation and disregard of policy – The conduct was so outrageous that attempts to correct performance would be fruitless, The employees actions violated the code of ethics, oath of office or basic Department values, The incident involved an integrity issue related to a criminal or internal investigation.

Request for Operations Order 2.13 Administrative Procedures Section 16D (page 13) Examples of actions for which the AzPOST board may revoke or suspend peace officer certification include, but are not limited to (in part) – Commission of a Felony, an offense which would be a felony if committed in this state, or an offense involving dishonestly…, malfeasance, misfeasance and nonfeasance in office, any other conduct or pattern of conduct that would tend to disrupt, diminish, or otherwise jeopardize public trust in the law enforcement profession.

It will be interesting to see what the State’s Attorney General and the Attorney of this case Ted Campagnolo will do.

This puts them in a pickle since Ted Campagnolo openly admitted in the dismissed charges that Quaas committed perjury or in his own publishes words "Quaas' testimony was incorrect."  It is very clear how Theron Quaas lied and what he lied about to get his bogus Indictment.  He actually left the room, and came back and made it a point to lie.  It's all on page 68 of the Grand Jury transcript, dated January 4, 2010.  It wasn't just the one time, it was several instances of Theron Quaas' "testimony being incorrect" to the Grand Jury.
