Cops love to tell us how they are perfect and NEVER commit crimes. And that in the rare case a cop actually does commit a crime that the crooked cop is severely punished and fired.

Yea sure! It is almost certain that racist Sgt. Fred Montaldo will be violating the civil rights of Blacks and Mexicans after he serves his year probation.

And ain't it amazing that Sgt. Fred Montaldo earned $71,000 while he as on administrative leave for calling Blacks racist name? Who says crime doesn't pay. Sgt. Fred Montaldo is a perfect example of how being a racist cop pays rather well.

I wonder if David Dorn will call me a racist for posting this article?

Look David, I'm not a snitch like the lies spreading about me say. I am not a racists either. I just posted this article to tell the world about the corrupt racist cops on the Phoenix Police Department. F* U David Dorn!

Phoenix sergeant, former detective get 1-year certification suspensions

The Arizona Republic

A Phoenix police sergeant fired for using racial slurs and a detective who quit amid accusations of abusing police computers will be able to serve as officers in Arizona after one-year suspensions.

The rulings were issued Wednesday by the Arizona Peace Office Standards and Training Board, the state agency that accredits and decertifies state law-enforcement officers.

Former Phoenix police Sgt. Fred Montaldo earned more than $71,000 while he was on paid administrative leave for freely using derogatory words to refer to Blacks, Hispanics and other minority groups.

The city also settled for $86,000 with one of Montaldo's South Mountain Precinct officers who accused his supervisor of harassment and threats of unfair performance reviews for filing an equal-opportunity complaint.

Montaldo entered into a one-year consent-agreement with AZPOST, meaning that his peace officer certification will be suspended for one year. He will be able to apply for Arizona law-enforcement jobs after that.

Former Phoenix police Officer Katherine Magill quit after an internal investigation showed she used a department computer system to run a background check for friends while working off-duty. She also had her badge suspended for one year.

Officer seen as 'complete racist'

Phoenix Professional Standards Bureau records showed that officers who worked for Montaldo considered their supervisor "a complete racist" who publicly used a racist term to describe Blacks and shared anti-Hispanic e-mails on his city computer.

Montaldo oversaw a neighborhood-enforcement team in some of the most racially diverse neighborhoods in south Phoenix. He was fired in February.

The sergeant also targeted his own officers with terms like "Nazi boy" and other derogatory names, leading to physical fights at the precinct, according to the report.

In the report, a Phoenix homeless-shelter worker said Montaldo used a racist term directed at Blacks in front of citizens. The worker, who is Black, told detectives Montaldo casually referred to him as "his White Negro," claiming he is "not Black because he lives in Scottsdale, does not use drugs or have a criminal record." Background check probed

Magill, 44, quit amid a Professional Standards investigation that validated allegations that she used a department database on crime to look into the background of a golf club security manager.

The 20-plus-year veteran was working an off-duty security job at Pointe Mountainside Golf Community in north Phoenix when she used the police department's computer system to confirm that the manager "had a criminal history record for impersonating a police officer," the report showed.

Magill admitted to Phoenix internal-affairs detectives that she accessed the department's database, and that she shared the information with members of the golf community. She said her motivation was "concern for the management company and the citizens of the golf community."

The former animal-cruelty detective will be eligible to reapply for Arizona law enforcement jobs in one year.
