“Pursuant to section 13-2907.01, Arizona Revised Statutes, it is a class 1 misdemeanor to knowingly make to a law enforcement agency a false, fraudulent or unfounded report or statement or to knowingly misrepresent a fact for the purpose of interfering with the orderly operation of a law enforcement agency or misleading a peace officer.”

To ensure we comply with state law, supervisors and other department personnel accepting complaints against sworn staff must provide the above stated notice to the complainant(s).
