IMPERSONATING a POLICE OFFICER REDUCED to PROBATION with ZERO DAYS in Jail – State v. Mr. P (DMC No. 4509) (Phoenix City Court No. 2998330): Mr. P and his son ran a business as private security guards. They had two vehicles equipped with red and blue lights, yet they were not licensed Police Officers. They arrived at an apartment complex in which undercover Officers were doing surveillance. When one of the undercover Detectives contacted Mr. P, he asked Mr. P if he was a Police Officer. Mr. P said he was a Police Officer and wanted to know why the gentlemen were at the apartment complex. When they identified themselves as actual Police Officers, Mr. P admitted he was not an Officer and he was originally going to be cited with Impersonating a Police Officer pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute ARS 13-2411(A). However, the Officer cited him with the misdemeanor offense of Impersonating a Public Officer pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute ARS 13-2406. The case was ultimately resolved as a misdemeanor with probation and zero days in jail. Mr. P was allowed to keep his private security license.
