Rachel Mitchell was already involved with prosecution of Nubia Rodriguez for the death of officer Paul Rutherford. There was known video evidence showing his movement in front of her vehicle was questionably safe and the accident was unavoidable. Mitchell believes her job is to protect govt. personnel and F everyone else, without transparency.
ALL officers with ANY form of integrity issues should have their names publicly listed on the Brady list ALL of them. No tiers, no "more sensitive" lists. ALL of them.
Phoenix must have one of the worst police departments in the country. It doesn’t surprise me that the prosecutor’s office is just as bad. Justice is the least of their concerns.
Ever watch any of Direct D's cop watching and First Amendment Auditors videos? Some might not like like his "salty" behavior but he has and is exposing the most corrupt cops, Prosecutors and Judges in Mesa, Phoenix, Tempe Arizona and this county! You can't even recognize AZ as a. State in America. I highly recommend his channel.
@@Biscuitsgravy924Yeah, seriously, the stories are never ending. Guess AZ is never embarrassed enough & has $ billions for wrongful conviction settlements.
It must be nice for police chiefs to be able to refuse to take media interviews based solely on the chief's personal opinion about the reporter. That one chief is a joke!
Standing ovation to your unwavering quest for accountability ABC15 👏🏼 Honorable endeavor, you defend the citizens of this state whom don’t have a platform and whose rights have been trampled on by these tyrannical lunatics for far too long.
The hardest part of becoming a cop is passing the polygraph test. Its scientifically proven that narcissist and ego maniacs thrive in passing polygraph tests.
It's scientifically proven that polygraphs are not able to accurately determine whether or not anyone is lying. It's also well documented that "narcissist" and "ego maniac" are synonyms, neither of which "thrive" in or on passing a polygraph, though they might thrive "at" passing one. The more troubling point I'd like to make is the implied illogic nature in how you structured what you wrote. Your premise is "the hardest part of becoming a cop is passing the polygraph". Your supporting sentence then basically says "it's a fact that this bad person almost always can pass a polygraph". Those two things have nothing to do with each other, unless you're implying that all cops are narcissists, in which case the polygraph wasn't an issue for them or unless you're trying to imply that the polygraph is why we have so many bad cops and so few good cops. Neither of which is true. Your comment is an example of someone stating two plausible, oversimplified generalizations not only as if they were facts, but that they were relevant to each other in order to seem intelligent...which is a type of behavior seen in narcissists.
I thought the hardest part was not to appear too smart and have it decided the department doesn't want such a smart individual in their department. There is a court case where an individual was declared by the department to be too smart for them to employ.
The whole department and every associated department needs to be fired, investigated, prosecuted and imprisoned. This is the sheer definition of institutionalised corruption.
Law enforcement and local prosecutors/ DA routinely work together in a completely inappropriate manner and then local magistrates/judges complete the corruption with quilty findings. It's normal in the U.S.
So what your saying is that the DOJ needs to investigate the State Attorneys office as much as the Police in the entire state! Obviously if there is a Law that requires the state prosecutors to release all evidence and they aren't, then they are corrupt and committing crimes !
When the Brady list was talked about years ago, it was supposed to be a list where it was it easier for police officers to lose their law certifications, and couldn't be police officers in any other department.
It should be investigated to see if T2 is where they put officers who may for whatever reason leave the force and want to leave with a clean record. Listen to her statement starting from roughly 3:10 to see what is likely happening.
But if it was a citizen who committed a crime they would put all their business on the news but since it's a cop they want to be secretive?? Show the corruption
To all cops: You want your respect back? THEN EARN OUR TRUST BACK! It's BS like this that proves why NONE OF YOU DESERVE ANYTHING! As long as you fear integrity and accountability, you are NOT the good guys!
Was not an accident, they don’t want the people to know about these officers whom should be on the list. Should not be a tier 2 list. This behavior in AZ is why there should be a federal list for all to see.
Ok. This County Atty Mitchell needs to be disbarred,removed, indicted, and held in contempt of the Supreme Court order and she herself be placed on this list. The Police and County Attorneys office and Prosecutors function as a Organized Crime Syndicate. The arrogance and gaul to twist and bastardize a order of the SCOTUS to where they keep separate "tiers" and then have one of the Judicial accomplices secretly rule that certain cops and evidence can be kept secret during someone's trial and remain unknown?? This should be seen as this police dept and Prosecutors office spitting in the face of the SCOTUS and the Rule of Law. These people are mobsters.
Another expample of why we need independent investgators outside of government. Investigators with big teeth. Teeth to arrest, subpoena, and punish gov wrong doers. Sadly, even county Grand Juries are toothless.
You know there's a small percentage that are in the reserves and national guard. If their unit Commander found out they are on this list, they can be processed out of the Military. Due to misconduct out of uniform. Even in the reserves and guard of every branch. The Commander and Noncommissioned Officers are responsible for the actions of their subordinates.
The cover-up of criminal behavior starts at the top of the department. The direction of what to do when criminal and abusive behavior is reported by the public or otherwise identified, comes from the department head and the command staff.
I was recently crossing a yellow light I had no time to stop unless I wanted a damaged car but the cop said I ran a red light I know I didn't n he wanted to fight
How is it the police departments refusing and forwarding evidence when requested when it should be just handed over. The chief? Right up front. Why aren't these goons charged and fired. And those covering for them. Enough already of this corruption
You failed to ask, "Mother may I?" as in the old children's game by that name. If you don't ask correctly, then they hide the complete Brady list from everyone. Tier1, Tier2, and how about Tier007 the most super-secret list. Everyone who had a hand in creating or maintaining that "cheat sheet" should be fired and if possible, charged. To stand there and state before the cameras that nothing was being hidden is a complete lie. Did the State create the law which allowed that multiple tier Brady list or just that department?
We dont need a State controlled list on who or who should not be put on the list. This lists can be manipulated by the local law enforcements to be in their favor with Police Unions intervening of the officers behalf. There should be a National list of officers or ex officers who have been investigated and charged with ANY type of misconduct, criminally charged and/or indicted. There should not be any half way with this ANY AND ALL officers should be placed on it that have been investigated for any type of misconduct. And I also believe that no police agency should investigate themself when any type of misconduct, or criminal charges against and employee of the police departments are investigated, an outside investigation agency should be formed to investigate these types of policy violations of misconduct.
Need a citizens oversight committee / board to do any investigations on cops, DAs, judges, PAs as well as every one working in police dept and mayors office! 😮
End qualified immunity! Make each officer personally liable! Take settlements out of the corrupt police union's pension fund instead of from innocent taxpayers. Maybe when cops are liable for their misconduct, instead of innocent taxpayers, they'll cast out the bad apples instead protecting them.
Im wondering why none of the cop on that Brady list never had their police license revoked I know because they give them a opportunity to quit before they are fired so they can keep the police license to work at a other police department in the state
The difference between "Secrecy" and total denial to the public. The purpose of a "REGIME" of power as opposed too a Government of Responsibility, Equality, Fairness. The early failures of democracy always include SECRECY, POWER, CONTROL and lack of accountability by a select few leaders. The future leans toward total authoritarian control when the basics are ignored or buried like this shows.
What a politician. Hear all that double talk? She should be saying I'm really covering for this woman because she had no business being a cop and her husband wants her to get a ton of money while not having to work, because she doesn't know how to work...Thanks Phoenix for paying tons of taxes for this loser.
These people lie so much they can't keep their lies straight. Yet..... A good person with a bag of weed in his pocket is the criminal. Just doesn't make sense.
Criminal activity IS normal AND expected in the law enforcement community. There is a name for it, i have a hard time remembering. Oh yea it the thin blue line. Thats right
Thanks for your Investigative Reports Dave. Have I a couple of questions, I not sure I understand. What is the difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2? How does the General Public get of this list, FOIA or similar State Law?
This is what happens when Preachers preach that "You don't need man's forgiveness, God has already forgiven you. "So, do whatever you want, you're saved." The road to Hell is paved with the belief that YOU aren't a Sinner.
Wait a second here, THE ORIGINAL BRADY LIST IS FOR OFFICERS WHO CAN'T OR WON'T OBEY THE CURRENT LAWS THAT THEY WERE HIRED TO PROTECT. and the ORIGINAL BRADY LIST is a Federal government List. Not a State by state list. And I'm most definitely looking into this B.S. in all State of Arizona Government. Sounds to me that the entire state of Arizona needs a Federal Audit A.S.A.P.
Keep up the good work!!! There’s so much bad government in AZ. Hopefully all your efforts for transparency effects change especially for your police department. AZ’s got some of the worst in the country. Stay safe😁👊💯
A coverup exposed and hard to explain … Ohhhh the prosecutor shows the judge first before then decides if the defense can have the information … WHAT THE HELL IS THIS, THE 1920s?
David, you and your news team needs to teach other news networks in other states how real journalism is done! Other so-called news reporters are lap dogs for police thugs who are more interested in entertaining than informing us citizens.
You should ask them to show how many officers have taken retirement under this “Accidental Disability Claim” That seems to be the easy ticket for them to to retire while keeping their pensions.
Does anyone really believe that the agencies (law enforcement and prosecutors office) affected most by the Brady List should be the ones to maintain and enforce it?! It’s broken on purpose, not by accident. Thank you for making this list public.
Keep pushing 15. We're completely lost without investigative journalism and reporting so we can write letters and vote!

or better yet fired, cops with integrity issues should not be employed period
Why should they keep the job?
@@andykrueger7564 They shouldn't. Any cop with "integrity issues" should not have a job in law enforcement. Period.
No, they should be fired and prosecuted.
Which means their careers are done....
Phoenix must have one of the worst police departments in the country. It doesn’t surprise me that the prosecutor’s office is just as bad. Justice is the least of their concerns.
It’s a trend in Arizona. Mesa is bad as well

Dave, you’re the best in the Biz! Keep up you’re excellent reporting on Phx police corruption.
You are truly appreciated…

Keep up they great work 15!! Hold them accountable!
So what was or is Diponzio trying to protect?! Please look at all those cases and see if those cases have a trend.
Great insight!
How many innocent people were affected by her actions?
Law enforcement and local prosecutors/ DA routinely work together in a completely inappropriate manner and then local magistrates/judges complete the corruption with quilty findings. It's normal in the U.S.
This is why we have a two tier justice system.
So what your saying is that the DOJ needs to investigate the State Attorneys office as much as the Police in the entire state! Obviously if there is a Law that requires the state prosecutors to release all evidence and they aren't, then they are corrupt and committing crimes !
It seems as if they became completely transparent, they would all be fired by the public who funds them.
The whole Brady list should be available to absolutely anyone that requests it.
Her mouth is moving, so you know she is lying. This county is so corrupt.
When the Brady list was talked about years ago, it was supposed to be a list where it was it easier for police officers to lose their law certifications, and couldn't be police officers in any other department.

Nothing surprises me with the corrupted phx police department. Good ol boys club
Biscobing is my baby daddy.
Thank god someone is doing this kind of great reporting.
So much graft - covering up crimes should be a jail able offense.
It is for those of us who have a right to not incriminate ourselves, but not for domestic terrorist cells operating throughput the world.
Sooo, NOT being completely transparent...
You're an awesome reporter, Dave.
Takes balls to do what you do . My respect to you
Make the Brady list a matter of public record and easily accessible for any member of the public
Brady List + Brady List Tiers + Qualified Immunity = why nobody can trust police ever for any reason.
It appears there is no part of the AZ criminal justice system that is not utterly corrupt.
But if it was a citizen who committed a crime they would put all their business on the news but since it's a cop they want to be secretive?? Show the corruption
Why wouldn’t serious integrity issues be grounds for dismissal?
To all cops: You want your respect back? THEN EARN OUR TRUST BACK! It's BS like this that proves why NONE OF YOU DESERVE ANYTHING! As long as you fear integrity and accountability, you are NOT the good guys!
They would run out of paper if every corrupt department was investigated 😅
Was not an accident, they don’t want the people to know about these officers whom should be on the list. Should not be a tier 2 list. This behavior in AZ is why there should be a federal list for all to see.
Ok. This County Atty Mitchell needs to be disbarred,removed, indicted, and held in contempt of the Supreme Court order and she herself be placed on this list.

Another expample of why we need independent investgators outside of government. Investigators with big teeth. Teeth to arrest, subpoena, and punish gov wrong doers. Sadly, even county Grand Juries are toothless.
It's always internal - thugs
investigating themselves and finding they did nothing wrong
You know there's a small percentage that are in the reserves and national guard. If their unit Commander found out they are on this list, they can be processed out of the Military. Due to misconduct out of uniform. Even in the reserves and guard of every branch. The Commander and Noncommissioned Officers are responsible for the actions of their subordinates.
This city officials can not take responsibility for any of their questionable decisions. WHY?
If any light on your vehicle is out, you are subject to the death penalty by cop. Good luck free people of America.
When a system is corrupt, and the officials involved get caught because of one loose thread.🤫
They should all be criminally charged
The cover-up of criminal behavior starts at the top of the department. The direction of what to do when criminal and abusive behavior is reported by the public or otherwise identified, comes from the department head and the command staff.

By putting it on tier 2 means we’re covering it up. I’m just as big, a liar and a crook as the cops.
