On March 21, 2019, Nubia Rodriguez hit Officer Paul Rutherford in the two-way turn lane on Indian School Road near 75th Avenue.
For more than three years, officials tried to prosecute her for the tragic death of Officer Paul Rutherford, with police and prosecutors withholding key video evidence and using misleading and biased testimony to obtain a negligent homicide charge.
“The City of Phoenix's treatment of Nubia Rodriguez remains, in a word, abhorrent. The City falsely accused Nubia of the homicide of a police officer who, by all accounts, was a good man who made a tragic mistake by running into traffic. The city refuses to take accountability for its officers' actions and the absolute destruction of an innocent woman's life.”
