I have been told that Susan K. has been sullying me again and accusing me of unethical conduct. I don’t read her so-called “news”. Susan K. did, however, lodge a formal complaint against me alleging that I had engaged in unethical conduct.
On August 21, 2014, the Commission on Judicial Conduct entered its decision in Complaint 14-157, Complainant: Susan K. Imperatrice
“After review, the commission found no evidence of ethical misconduct and concluded that the judges did not violate the Code in this case. Accordingly, the complaint is dismissed in its entirety, pursuant to Rules 16(a) and 23.”
On July 28, 2014, I cautioned readers to think like a journalist. The crux was to beware of “news” that omitted a viewpoint or hyped another or was politically or personally motivated, slanting the truth to manipulate.
I had previously posted Susan K.’s story and then removed it from a prominent place at this site with the quote: “If you stop telling lies about me, I’ll stop telling the truth about you.” Apparently, since then she has forgotten that.
I have replaced Susan K.’s history again, for your consideration whenever someone tells you they know something because Susan K. reported it.

Susan K. Imperatrice, aka Susan K., does hatchet pieces for Bill Taylor’s local radio station. She claims to be a champion for citizens, especially in the criminal justice arena.
In truth, Susan K.’s expertise about the criminal justice system is not the result of education, but experience.
On June 23, 1999, Susan Kay Imperatrice, was one (Defendant “C” ) of six people indicted by the Arizona State Grand Jury in Maricopa County Superior Court case number CR 99-08878, (State Grand Jury number 45 SGJ 72). The State Grand Jury accused her of crimes committed between January 1998 and up to and including May, 1998. Those crimes were Conspiracy to Manufacture Methamphetamine, a Class 2 Felony; Illegally Conducting an Enterprise [to make and sell meth], a Class 3 Felony; and Possession of Chemicals and/or Equipment for the Manufacture of Methamphetamine, a Class 3 Felony..
The criminal conduct was of such magnitude that the Chief Counsel of the Drug Enforcement and Violent Crimes Section, Criminal Division, of the State Attorney General’s office, Billie Rosen, took an active role in the prosecution.
Susan K. was arrested on a warrant with a $25,000 bond on July 8, 1999. Her Pretrial Services background reported a “Drug” charge in 1985 with a fine as a consequence and a “Shoplifting” charge in 1990 for which she was granted diversion.
In November of 1999 Susan K. made an Agreement with the Attorney General’s Office.
In the agreement, which was included in her plea bargain, Susan K., received immunity for “any offense she has disclosed to the Arizona Attorney General’s Office or the Phoenix Police Department”, except homicide. Susan K. agreed to “provide information and to testify in multiple trials involving the pending case and in other cases she may have information about”. In return, Susan K.’s charges were reduced from felonies which carried mandatory prison terms to a single misdemeanor with a recommendation for probation.
The presentence investigation report which was filed on December 13, 1999 says that on May 6, 1998 Susan K. was “arrested on an outstanding warrant for failure to pay a fine on a possession of dangerous drugs and marijuana charge”; agents then contacted her concerning their drug manufacturing investigation. Susan K. “admitted using methamphetamine on a recreational basis and on more than one occasion she bought Suphedrine pills for Michael Kibby to make methamphetamine.” As part of the presentence interview, Susan K. admitted she “has previously used marijuana and cocaine on a weekly basis, experimented with psilocybin [hallucinogenic mushrooms] and she believes she is addicted to methamphetamine” …[she] “also admitted using both Soma and Valium on a daily basis when she was twenty-six.”
In her version of her history, Susan K., says she saw the light and turned from her evil ways after an auto accident in July 1998. By her own account, though, she kept up her association with meth dealers for months after the May, 1998 bust of the meth lab she was supplying with materials.
The next time you hear Susan K. rant about criminal’s being treated lightly and not being held accountable, consider the source. She is our local version of a politician who publicly proclaims support for public decency but is later revealed to be a hypocrite or worse.
