Judge denies Phoenix PD’s motion to dismiss protest lawsuit

A federal judge has denied a motion from the City of Phoenix to dismiss a lawsuit filed on behalf of more than 100 protesters who were swept up and arrested with a copy-and-paste probable cause statement.

Judge Susan Brnovich’s order means many of the claims against the Phoenix Police Department, Chief Jeri Williams, and individual officers will continue.


Yes, Susan Brnovich is related to Mark Brnovich, Arizona's Attorney General.  In fact, she's married to him.

No matter what Judge Brnovich has to say on the topic, AG Brnovich has already given a free pass to the Phoenix PD.

Arizona attorney general won't investigate Phoenix Police for charging BLM protesters as gang members

The Office of Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich said it will not investigate possible criminal conduct of the five Phoenix police officers who filed gang charges against Black Lives Matter protesters in 2020, a letter from the office says.


Judge Brnovich was appointed to the federal bench by Cheeto in 2018
