First read the press reports above which are mostly accurate but very incomplete.

The victim of police corruption, Yessenia Garcia, still hasn't figured
out the why of what happened to her.

You might first think that the arresting cops were merely:

Stupid -
ignoring proffered proof of innocence, failing to question themselves why
the perpetrator would be the one to approach cops about the windscreen
and ignoring the cop-found CCTV which exonerated the accused, not only
showing how her car's windscreen was really damaged but also that the car
was never out of cctv cover for more than 40 seconds,

and Liars -
inventing "warm hood", "glass on dress" and "car/driver identified by eye- witnesses",

and Bullies -
intimidating and threatening the innocent woman and being violent to her
even though she and her friend offered them no resistance only shocked surprise, exactly as wholly innocent persons would.

But cops who are Stupid, Liars and Bullies are normal and expected.

Here in Arizona it's a hard and fast rule they've gotta be all three or
else they flunk Pig School.

This case is much worse than just that, which is why IA (Internal
Affairs) didn't touch it till they were forced to a couple of days ago,
14 months too late, so the trail is all stale.

This is what really happened in May 2020. I know this because a friend of
mine works for Scottsdale PD and told me and others this while he was dead-drunk (!) earlier this year. Many people know the story so I don't
feel that exposed by recounting this.



What Actually Happened

Old Town, Scottsdale AZ, late on 5/24/2020. Dark. Dry, usual for AZ.

Off-duty cop, "R", drunk-driving, has a front-end collision with a
jaywalker who coincidentally was a suspect in another crime.

R drives off without ascertaining the pedestrian's injuries or calling
911 or even stopping at all.

R's car sustains major damage to windscreen and minor damage to hood.

To give himself time to get the car fixed, off-duty cop "R" uses his
cellphone while driving away from the scene of the crime to call the son
of a friend (neither of them cops) to find a similar-looking car parked
in the vicinity of the hit-and-run, but not overlooked, and to
immediately damage its hood and windscreen without leaving fingerprints.

This secondary crime gets committed within fifteen minutes, the car
chosen happening to be the one owned by Yessenia Garcia, a Hispanic lady
in her mid-thirties, parked in a quiet yard merely 500 yards from the
scene of the hit and run but on a different block and street.

Unknown to these criminals, the vandalism and intended framing got
captured on private CCTV.

At least one of the arresting cops knew of the framing at the time of the arrest and Yessenia would have been picked up as soon as tried to get the windscreen changed, all local repair centers would be told to report
windscreen damage to Scottsdale PD. By that time, the cops would have any
loose ends tied-up, and any exonerating CCTV would have got located,
seized and erased.

They already got the CCTV of the hit-and-run itself erased. No idea if it
was enough to positively identify the car or driver.

Yessenia however reported it to the police in person just a few minutes
after she discovered what she still seems to think was only vandalism.

This speed caught the crooked cop (or cops) off-guard. So the only cover-
up that was possible was getting phone records erased or something, my
friend wasn't too clear on this one.

R, the off-duty drunk-driver who committed the hit-and-run, is still
serving with SPD.

Scottsdale has a new Chief, name of Jeff Walther, don't know anything
about him but an honest competent dude is very unlikely to be made Chief
of Police anywhere in Arizona! The IA investigation is certain to be
another cover-up of the first botched cover-up.

Yessenia Garcia's attorney was Mr Ryan Tait (480) 405 6767 / 6768 but
Tait & Hall doesn't seem interested, someone else tried calling them,
maybe they've been got at too by the cops, or they genuinely believe
qualified immunity lets crooked cops get away with these multiple
violations?

Can some reader of this fill them in. Bad news for Scottsdale taxpayers.
I'm in Phoenix.
