I) ATTENTION MARK BRNOVICH, ARIZONA ATTORNEY GENERAL.

As to the The Arizona Administrative Court, and the barebones fact that it is nothing more then a puppet court which greatly fails to serve the interests of Arizona consumers.

INTRODUCTION

FROM THE ARTICLE "First Article As Written. April 02, 2012". 

"But I know better today. For one thing, the legal process circa 2012-2013 mentioned in my original April 2, 2012 article, led to absolutely nowhere in terms of bringing about due attention to the now proven/blatantly unlawful misconduct of ASH administrators; via that process, I came to understand that the entire system, including the role that the Arizona Administrative Court(s) plays in relation to the rights of consumers seeking services from ADHS/BHS, is broken." (See this blog: "First Article As Written. April 02, 2012"; published July 06,. 2016.) 

Indeed, this specific venue- the Arizona Administrative Court- is nothing more then a puppet court designed to preserve the interests of one of our nation's most corrupted public agency systems, rather then those of the Arizona citizen-consumers it is required to serve as per  law and policy.  A venue wherein the Arizona Office of the Attorney General- which formally represents the interests of the ASH operation and other like public agency/entities- has more authority then the Administrative Court itself.

---------------------------------------

      DISCUSSION

 

The given authority of the staff of the Arizona Office of the Attorney General (OAG) in this court setting would not be a problem if, in turn, such staff were not equally corrupt with respect for that office's responsibility to meet the needs and interests of the state's citizens across the board, including the client-consumers (patients, patients' families, etc.) seeking to be provided with optimum medical care at the Arizona State Hospital.

As to the aforementioned disinterest of staff in OAG when it comes to the needs and interests of the greater public in Arizona, no one instance more clarified to me how depraved the assigned legal counsel at ASH, Assistant Attorney General Joel Rudd is, in fact, then when he chose to respond- in this specific court venue- to my allegation that ASH administrators had willfully covered up the escape of ASH patient Jesus Rincon Murietta in order to avoid oversight and accountability (which directly contributed the brutal murder of Arizona citizen April Mott) by stating:

 

"You allege that because of this escape a bad thing happened?"

I raised the issue of the cover up itself because I was the one who reported it to Arizona Republic news reporter JJ Hensley, an act for which I was directly retaliated against by ASH administrators, an issue therein representing the primary issue at stake in this given case proceeding.

And indeed, as illustrated by this Rat Bastard's grossly depraved disregard for Miss Mott's tragic death (said "bad thing"), I am convinced that at least one member of the highly entrusted staff of OAG is continually being allowed to engage in failing to serve the interests of Arizona's seriously mentally ill and disabled client-consumers at ASH. Persons disabled as per state and federal law, who are highly vulnerable to negligence and abuse and who- on the basis of disability- far too often have no means of speaking for themselves, which I contend allows and in fact encourages Joel Rudd to blatantly defy his given responsibilities, in direct complicity with ASH administrators and clinical staff. This occurs despite the shared responsibility of Rudd's immediate supervisor, current Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich, to ensure that his staff fully abide and comply with their given duties, as per the public trust. Likewise, this with respect for the role that the AZ Administrative Court is obligated to fill on behalf of Arizona citizens across the board.

Consequently, every time I appeared as a plaintiff in this court and seeking nothing more then equitable justice as per procedure at the level of state and federal law, and related constitutional rights (due process, for example), the actual 'judges' who sat in the five hearings that I requested in that venue were unable and unwilling to acknowledge any element of my formal statements about the misconduct of ASH's assigned legal counsel, Joel Rudd, who- as stated- is in fact an acting staff member of the Office of Arizona Attorney General. In each of the these 'case proceedings', Rudd  was permitted to engage in abject misconduct as a licensed attorney, exercising distinctly obvious abuse of the legal process in that realm of consumer interests; but when I attempted to compel the assigned 'judges' to address this attorney's misconduct, they ALL refused on the basis of the above described authority of the OAG as it stands.

As a citizen with professional legal experience  in my own right, I was nothing less then shocked- even disgusted- by what I experienced each and every time I took my concerns to this court. Because of the basic fact that ASH as an entity has severely disproportionate power over anyone who seeks relief in relation to the substandard care practices and conditions at ASH  via this court, my good faith attempts to report these issues through the state of Arizona's formal administrative legal system were literally disregarded; representing just one more version of systematic censorship that I contend has allowed ASH to function in gross defiance of law and policy, to the direct detriment of the consumer/client/patients at ASH across the board."

It is that simple, it is that critical. It is that bad.

 

IN CLOSING

The Arizona Office of Attorney General (OAG) bears direct responsibility to investigate and bring meaningful accountability with respect for the ongoing substandard care practices and conditions at The Arizona State Hospital, most significantly with regard to the civil rights of the ASH patient community. Failure to do so qualifies as only one more example of state sanctioned discrimination against the ASH patients across the board, and as such, requires federal oversight by the Department of Justice's Office of Civil Rights.
