11. Defendant Stevenson was appointed by Defendant Dobbertin to be a peace
officer in the Patagonia Police Department on September 8, 2009. Stevenson was issued a
badge, uniform, and firearm during the first week of September 2009; he had keys to the
police station and access to its computer system; and he drove a police vehicle or otherwise
performed the official duties of a peace officer from that time forward.
12. On September 22, 2009, Patagonia Police Officer Rick Ramsey (hereinafter
“Officer Ramsey”) and Defendant Stevenson responded to a domestic violence call. As a
result of that call, Officer Ramsey and Defendant Stevenson arrested the Plaintiff.
13. Defendant Stevenson wore a Town of Patagonia police officer’s uniform at
the time of the arrest and also carried a firearm and badge.
14. Plaintiff was not combative at the time of his arrest. He was handcuffed with
his hands behind his back.
15. Officer Ramsey and Defendant Stevenson brought Plaintiff to the Patagonia
police station, which was less than half a mile away from where the arrest occurred.
16. The Patagonia police station is, and was at the time, a trailer that is over 20
years old, roughly 50 feet long, and does not contain a holding cell.
17. Plaintiff was instructed to sit on a couch in the Patagonia police station and
complied with this instruction. The locked entryway door to the station was approximately
10 feet in front of him. Defendant Stevenson sat at a desk 10 feet in front of Plaintiff and 30
feet to his left. While sitting at the desk, Defendant Stevenson faced in the same direction as
Plaintiff, away from Plaintiff and toward the wall in front of him.

18. Officer Ramsey left the trailer to interview witnesses at two locations nearby.
He returned approximately every 30 minutes. Plaintiff saw Officer Ramsey lock the front
door every time before he left.
19. Defendant Stevenson questioned Plaintiff for basic information, and Plaintiff
was very cooperative.
20. Plaintiff told Defendant Stevenson that he was experiencing shoulder pain.
Defendant Stevenson sought permission from Defendant Dobbertin to move the handcuffs
from back to front. Because Plaintiff had been very cooperative, the request was granted.
Defendant Stevenson moved Plaintiff’s handcuffs from his back to his front, and Plaintiff
continued to sit on the couch without incident.
21. Defendant Stevenson and Plaintiff then sat in the trailer for approximately two
hours.
22. At the time of the arrest, Plaintiff had a history of attempted suicide.
23. While Plaintiff was at the police station, four full Coors Light beer bottles
were on a desk to the right of Plaintiff.
24. Plaintiff stood and picked up one of the Coors Light bottles, intending to
break it and then use the broken bottle to cut his own throat.
25. At that time, Plaintiff did not see Defendant Stevenson, who was behind him
30 feet and 10 feet to the side. Plaintiff never turned towards Defendant Stevenson at any
time with the bottle in his hand.

26. Plaintiff tried to break the bottle three times on the desk. Because it would not
break, Plaintiff moved past the desk toward a door jamb in the hallway, and further away
from Defendant Stevenson.
27. Plaintiff broke the bottle on the door jamb and then used it to cut his own
throat.
28. At this time, Defendant Stevenson knocked Plaintiff to the floor and held him
in a headlock.
29. After Defendant Stevenson knocked Plaintiff to the floor, he realized that
Plaintiff had cut his own throat.
30. Plaintiff was taken to the hospital, where a doctor determined that the cuts had
come very close to his jugular vein.
31. Defendant Stevenson later authored a police report in which he identified
himself as the “reporting officer.”
32. The report stated that Plaintiff slashed and stabbed at Defendant Stevenson
with the broken beer bottle.
33. Plaintiff did not slash or stab at Defendant Stevenson with the beer bottle.
Plaintiff used the bottle only to cut his own throat.
34. Defendant Stevenson stated in his police report that Plaintiff tried to escape
through the front door of the police station.
35. Plaintiff did not try to escape through the door to the station.

36. Patagonia is a very small town with a few police officers. Defendant
Dobbertin had spoken with Plaintiff before his arrest and recognized him at the time of the
arrest.
37. Defendant Dobbertin authored a police report in which he stated that “Plaintiff
used the broken bottle to slash at Officer Stevenson.”
38. Defendant Dobbertin’s report also stated that Plaintiff “jumped up and ran to
the locked door in an apparent attempt to escape custody.”
39. Defendant Dobbertin swore out a Complaint on September 25, 2009, in which
he charged Plaintiff with committing aggravated assault against “Officer D. Stevenson,
while engaged in the execution of official duties, a Class 2 Felony.” A copy of the
Complaint is attached as Exhibit A.
40. Defendant Dobbertin also charged Plaintiff with escape, a class 4 felony.
41. Defendant Dobbertin knew that Defendant Stevenson was not a certified
police officer at the time of Plaintiff’s arrest and at the time that he swore out the Complaint.
42. Defendant Dobbertin knew or should have known that under Arizona law, no
person may exercise the authority or perform the duties of a peace officer unless he is
certified.
43. Defendant Dobbertin knew that he employed Defendant Stevenson to perform
the duties of a peace officer in violation of Arizona law.
44. Defendant Dobbertin had signed an application for waiver request for
Defendant Stevenson with AZPOST on September 9, 2009, but he understood or should

have understood that Defendant Stevenson was not a certified police officer until the waiver
request was granted.
45. Defendant Dobbertin had himself applied for a waiver when he was hired by
the Tucson Police Department in 1982.
46. On September 24, 2009, Plaintiff’s bail was set at $400,000.00, largely based
upon Defendant Dobbertin’s sworn complaint alleging that Plaintiff had assaulted a peace
officer and attempted to escape custody.
47. At the preliminary hearing for Plaintiff’s criminal trial on October 8, 2009,
Defendant Stevenson was the only witness for the police. He testified that he had been a
police officer for the Town of Patagonia for four months.
48. In fact, Defendant Stevenson was not entered onto the City’s payroll until one
week before the hearing, Oct 1, 2009.
49. In addition, Defendant Stevenson was not a certified police officer until his
recertification on October 8, 2009.
50. Upon information and belief, Defendant Stevenson did not know that his
recertification had been approved when he testified that he was a police officer.
51. Defendant Stevenson testified at the preliminary hearing that he was on duty
on September 22, 2009. He also testified that he took custody of Plaintiff.
52. Defendant Stevenson testified that Plaintiff slashed at him with the broken
beer bottle and that Plaintiff tried to escape through a locked door.
53. Based on this testimony, a justice of the peace found that there was probable
cause to prosecute Plaintiff for assaulting a peace officer and escape.

54. On October 9, 2009, the Santa Cruz county attorney issued an information
charging Plaintiff with assaulting a peace officer and escape, in addition to unrelated
charges arising out of the domestic violence incident.
55. At Plaintiff’s trial on those charges, Defendant Stevenson was asked how long
he had been a police officer. He testified that he had been a police officer since 1979.
Defendant Stevenson failed to disclose that he was not a certified peace officer when he
arrested Plaintiff.
56. At Plaintiff’s trial, Defendant Stevenson was asked how long he had been with
the Patagonia police department. He testified that he started with the Department in April
2009.
57. Plaintiff was tried and sentenced to 20.75 years in prison on May 26, 2010. Of
those 20.75 years, 15 were for assault on a peace officer and an additional 3.75 were for
escape. The remaining two years were for unrelated convictions arising out of the domestic
violence incident.
58. The only crime that Plaintiff was convicted of and that carries a mandatory
prison sentence under law is assault on a peace officer. If Plaintiff had not been charged
with and convicted of assault on a peace officer, he might have obtained a probation
sentence.
59. Plaintiff had been in jail for 8 months at the Santa Cruz County Jail at the time
of his sentencing. Plaintiff had never been in prison before he was sentenced.
60. After the sentence, Plaintiff was transferred to Florence prison. Due to the
length of his sentence, he was placed in the “4 yard” at Florence prison.

61. Plaintiff was assaulted and beaten while in the “4 yard.”
62. Sometime after Plaintiff was sentenced, it was discovered that Defendant
Stevenson was not a certified police officer at the time of the arrest. Based on that
information, Plaintiff’s criminal defense counsel filed a Motion to Vacate his sentence.
63. The Prosecutor agreed to vacate Plaintiff’s conviction for assault on a peace
officer, admitting that “Defendant was inappropriately tried on the charge of aggravated
assault of a peace officer, inappropriately convicted and inappropriately sentenced.”
64. The Prosecutor also stated that the Patagonia Police Department “misled the
Prosecutor’s office by not disclosing Stevenson was not AZPOST certified on September
22, 2009.”
65. On September 8, 2010, Judge Montoya-Paez of the Superior Court in Santa
Cruz ordered that the charges against Plaintiff for escape and assault on a police officer be
dismissed with prejudice. The Judge ordered Plaintiff to be released from custody, and the
remaining charges arising out of the domestic violence incident to be dismissed without
prejudice.
66. The Judge’s minute entry stated that “the integrity of judicial system was
compromised with misleading and false statements”; that there was “a disservice to honest
and hardworking peace officers”; and that the case “was tainted and that the integrity of
[the] Court was compromised.”
67. The Court also set an Order to Show Cause as to the Town of Patagonia Police
and Defendant Dobbertin. After a hearing, the Court found that Defendants Dobbertin and

Stevenson “acted in a matter [sic] to obstruct the administration of justice,” and Defendants
Dobbertin and Stevenson were found in criminal contempt of court.
68. Because of the Defendants’ conduct, Plaintiff suffered psychiatric trauma that
continues to affect him, as well as pecuniary loss and physical injury.

Loss of Liberty
(As Against All Defendants)
69. Plaintiff reasserts and realleges each and every paragraph, 1 through 68,
above, as though fully asserted herein.
70. Defendants Dobbertin and Stevenson caused the wrongful arrest, prosecution,
and conviction of Plaintiff without probable cause for assaulting a police officer and escape,
in violation of Plaintiff’s due process rights under the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments.
71. As a result of the violation of Plaintiff’s constitutional rights, Plaintiff
sustained damages, including but not limited to pecuniary loss, loss of liberty, mental
anguish, injury, and pain and suffering, all in an amount to be proven at trial.
72. Defendants Dobbertin and Stevenson had reason to know of, and consciously
disregarded a substantial risk that their conduct would significantly injure Plaintiff. Plaintiff
therefore requests an award of punitive damages against Defendants Dobbertin and
Stevenson in an amount to be proven at trial. Plaintiff does not seek punitive damages
against Defendant Dobbertin in his official capacity or against the Town of Patagonia or the
Patagonia Police Department.

against a peace officer and escape were dismissed with prejudice on September 8, 2010.
