Kelley yelled to the driver, “Go around you stupid (expletive deleted) foreigner,” City Attorney Mike Rankin said during a 2015 City Council meeting, during which an overview of Kelley’s case was presented.

The patrol car’s video camera picked up Kelley’s word and a civilian also witnessed the incident, Rankin said.

Investigators found that Kelley “intentionally manipulated” the recording device and tried to disconnect it to delete the audio recording of the incident, according to the AZPOST’s case overview.

Three weeks later, Kelley was found to have lied when he requested a police report for personal use, but wrote “court” on the department’s request log as the reason he was seeking the report.

Kelley, who had been on the force for three years, was fired for “untruthfulness,” but appealed his termination with the city’s Civil Service Commission, which upheld the decision.

Arick Martino

Martino, 28, resigned from the TPD for an incident involving excessive force that occurred in 2015 after Martino and five other officers responded to a disturbance and the suspect resisted arrest, according to the AZPOST’s case overview.
