Nothing More to Say Other Than, Damn Straight Harvard!!

From KTAR NEWS  PHOENIX -- Arizona is the most corruption-ridden state in the nation, a Harvard study said. According to the Harvard study said Arizona had the highest instance of illegal corruption -- "private gains in the form of cash or gifts by a government official, in exchange for providing specific benefits to private individuals or groups" -- when surveying nearly 1,000 reporters. To determine the most corrupt states, the authors had reporters rank the instances they see illegal corruption in the different branches of government on a one (least) to five (most) scale. Arizona did not fare well in any ranking, especially the executive and legislative branches, where reporters said they see "very high" instances of corruption. The study came years after several Arizona lawmakers admitted to accepting gifts from the Fiesta Bowl, ultimately leading the bowl to ban gifts for legislators and fire CEO John Junker. When it came to legal corruption -- political or campaign donations in exchange for benefits to a specific group -- Arizona didn't fare much better. Legal corruption was very common in the legislative branch, moderately common in the executive branch and slightly common in the judicial branch. Arizona ranked above California, Kentucky, Alabama and Illinois, respectively, to be the worst for illegal corruption. The state that saw the least illegal corruption was Wyoming. The most legally corrupt state was Kentucky and the least was Tennessee.

"SHE FEARS THAT MANY CHILDREN WILL BE HARMED IN THE PROCESS" The following is an excerpt taken directly from an Arizona Court of Appeals decision whereby Kimberly Lewis was found to have intentionally violated a court order.  Unfortunately and likely unaware to many parents who had enrolled their most valued asset (their children) into the LEWIS SCHOOL OF DANCE - now Dance Studio 111 is that owner - operator Kimberly Lewis never  REVEALED TO PARENTS THAT LEWIS'S ESTRANGED EX HUSBAND ( WILLIAM REHKOW ) HAD BEEN IDENTIFIED BY A MEDICAL DOCTOR BY WAY OF A " TARASOFF WARNIN G". Allegedly Dr. Sandra Gray told Kimberly Lewis that Rehkow was   " Psychotic , Delusional, on the edge and likely to kill Lewis " This statement was documented by Phoenix Police Detective Mary Freund in several police reports which was the catalyst for Search Warrants as well as FELONY STALKING AND HARASSMENT CHARGES!  FREUND who had become very close friends wit

Phoenix Police Officers Terminated

Image
Terminations These are a few of the terminations from the Phoenix Police Department as the Chief of Police Williams handed out pink slips.  Williams received a correspondence from this blogger regarding egregious violations by one of her Commanders (Sandra Renteria) & a Lieutenant (Christine Gonzalez) and was ignored.  These two officers assisted & intentionally falsified a search warrant affidavit in order to gain entrance into a North Scottsdale residence in order to seize equipment and suspend a website focused on the corruption within the Maricopa County Family Courts. Chief Williams and the Professional Standards Bureau readily ignored policy and procedure violations by their officers because the officers are now in leadership roles and hold administrative positions.  Therefore, terminating these officers for cause would easily translate into a major and catastrophic collapse of William's tiered administration.  It should be noted, that when these violations were i

Let us not ever forget this egregious over zealous police action against a homeowner who was shot multiple times in his home and then dragged onton the sidewalk by police on a scalding hot day in Central Phoenix.  The officer who seriously injured the homeowner Anthony Arambula was told by his Sergeant not to worry about the error because he had his back. As a result of a excessive settlemement offer this case has been sealed from public viewing most certainly because it conclusively proves that the Management and Administrators with the City of Phoenix do not at any cost want this case disseminated to the public.  This is just one of the cases that fell far below the level of professionalism of a well respected police department.  Once you are awareof the facts of the case you will realize that as a citizen in the City of Phoenix you have every right to voice your concerns about police corruption and negligence though if you do the Phoenix Police Department may show up and breach y
