With seats costing $200, officers from multiple departments attended the class. But sources told ABC15 that Phoenix appeared to have the most in attendance. MORE ⬇️

PHOENIX — The Phoenix Police Department had more than a dozen officers receive special training from a former prosecutor, who was fired and placed under State Bar investigation after colluding with city detectives to falsely charge protesters as gang members.

Phoenix issued a basic statement when asked for comment on why the department would allow officers to attend. “If I would say that I’m surprised that would be a lie,” said Katie Gipson-Mclean, a defense attorney who represented an innocent man falsely charged by Sponsel and Phoenix in 2020. “At this point, nothing really surprises me from Phoenix PD anymore.”

After ABC15’s reports, the court, MCAO, and multiple outside investigations concluded that Sponsel presented clearly false information to grand jurors to obtain charges in multiple cases."Mayor Gallego was not aware of Phoenix detectives attending a training led by the former prosecutor. She has spoken with city leadership about further vetting such programs before engaging city employees.
