Complaint Review:
Scottsdale Arizona Police Officer James (Jay) S. Rusch
Scottsdale Arizona Police officer, James (Jay) S. Rusch, ripoff Dead Beat Dad, Dead Beat Cop Bigamist working the system NOT enforcing the system Gilbert Arizona
Scottsdale, Arizona (Civic Center Station - 3700 N. 75th St.) motorcycle cop, James (Jay) S. Rusch is in violation of a court order by not paying in full, his court ordered child support obligation. He has not paid in full his child support medical obligation for 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002. He has not paid in full his child support modification obligation for April 1998, May 1998 and June 1998. He has not paid in full his child support modification obligation for April 2002 and May 2002.
In spite of repeated written requests including a letter sent to Chief Bartosch, City of Scottsdale Chief of Police, dated July 22, 1998 these obligations continue to go unpaid. Deputy Chief of Police, Kevin Mattingly responded with a letter of acknowledgement but directed the matter back to Superior Court for child support claims.
Court records dated 1998 and 2002 show that James (Jay) S. Rusch has not exercised his visitation of his three children. Mother has incurred costs of approximately $26,950.00 at $350.00 per month for approximately seventy seven (77) months. This is based on increased expenses after he abandoned his visitation obligation in March of 1996.
James (Jay) S. Rusch owes $1,949.92 in child support modification and medical expense obligation.
James (Jay) S. Rusch claims tax exemptions for two of his three children. According to the Child Support Modification paperwork, he is eligible for these exemptions only if the TOTAL child support obligation is PAID IN FULL for the year claimed. James (Jay) S. Rusch has not paid in full his child support obligation for 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, or 2001 therefore he was not eligible to take the exemptions.
Court records show that James (Jay) S. Rusch re-married his second wife in March of 1996 prior to a divorce from his first wife in May, 1996. Years later court records reflect a change in the date of the May 1996 divorce back to September 1995 to accommodate the second marriage as James (Jay) S. Rusch was not aware he was not yet divorced when he re-married.
SO, besides James (Jay) S. Rusch not paying his court ordered child support, he was/is technically a bigamist, until he used his power/influence as a Scottsdale Arizona Police officer to fix the divorce record. I have the proof, the papers between our attorneys still negotiating our divorce well after James (Jay) Rusch remarried. This could even involve judicial misconduct by the Superior Court Judge who actually changed the record. In October of 2000, he had our divorce moved back to the year 1995, when we were divorced in 1996. I immediately wrote to the court when I discovered the falsified date change. To this day, I have never received a response.
Why is the Scottsdale Police Department not doing anything about this? Most police departments would not allow a dead beat dad to get away without paying this much money in child support, and his falsifying records to avoid being prosecuted as a bigamist.
Since I am at my whit's end and cannot afford legal fees, I have decided to file my Rip-off Report and take my message to the street, literally.
Working the system rather than enforcing it. Is this any way to protect and serve, Officer Rusch?

Through a google search I found Scottsdale AZ Police Officer Rusch appears at least 2x on the Ripoff Report, this is the other instance:
ripoffreport.com/reports/scottsdale-police-officer-j-rusch-violates-our-rights/scottsdale-arizona-85251/scottsdale-police-officer-j-rusch-violates-our-rights-motorcycle-traffic-officer-violate-863612
Note slight name variations prevented his name from coming up when I searched for his name on Ripoffreport.com...
It is such a rare last name that it is probably the same person. However, it would be helpful if Cathy (his ex-wife) could confirm whether or not she is aware of any other Officers with the name Rusch on the force (eg - a Jr or Sr). Also, I'm sure readers would like to know whether Officer Rusch ever paid his child support, and whether the court judge was ever admnonished for changing the divorce date.

My Friend you are obviously very ignorant about the federal regulations regarding the police departments of our country. Arizona Does Have POST but not all states call it that we do so unless you can help the person witht here problem please refrain from starting side issues when you obviously don't know what your talking about.

I LOVE THIS SITE---if dont know if memory serves me right but arizona is not a P.O.S.T.(police officers standard training) certification state so that means most these cops arent usually educated and certified officers and after being on the force for years they develop the kinda crooked friends that most people dont need and it sounds to me like your ex loser has a few lies up his sleeve and i cant believe it either that the city of scottsdale and the police department there has not done anything about it--maybe you should send them this link so they can see what you did against them. i am a family member of a family that owns property there and ive seen some cops do some pretty shitty stuff myself there and in my own area in minnesota but they get weeded thru and disposed of fast. good luck

First, check the box if you would would be willing to be contacted by the media or consumer advocate ,when filing your report.
Second, Many courts now have in them a special office or such to help the public with these kinds
of issues,check to see. Also you may try womens advocates,ie: Battered womens Center,or such to see if they can help or make referals.
Third,many Judges have a list of Lawyers to do PRO-BONO ( represent a client for free ),or you may try to find a Lawyer willing to work a case Pro-bono, or for a portion of the settlement.
Fourth, if you beleive, and have ( copies ) of Documents to prove MISCONDUCT by a judge,( there are simular complaint agencies re: lawyers ), you can file a Written COMPLAINT,stating the name and location of the Judge,to THE COMMISION ON JUDICIAL CONDUCT in your State or Region- LOOK it up.File the Complaint , if you are willing to co-operate in an ivestigation . If the Commission finds there is enough evidence to proceed with an investigation, either way,upon reveiwing your written ( i'm not sure about notorization , so check ), COMPLAINT AND ( copies ) of evidencery documents,they will let you know.
Fith: If you lose a CHILD SUPOORT HEARING, you can APPEAL IT ( there's a time limit ),it will go to a FAMILY COURT JUDGE ( not a hearing officer ).
If you think you need to,refile a for CHILD SUPPORT MODIFICATION,then when they make a Decicion ( if not in your favor ) , you can File the APPEAL ( I don't recall any cost ).
Don't give up,be persistant,stand your ground
And FIGHT LIKE HELL against these Corrupt Ripoffs!
