FLAGSTAFF - Members of a law-enforcement motorcycle club assaulted patrons
at a Prescott bar and high-ranking officers tried to cover up the group's involvement,
an investigative report released Thursday alleges.
Prescott Valley Police Chief Bill Fessler and Yavapai County sheriff's Sgt. Bill Suttle
both left their jobs after the brawl along Prescott's Whiskey Row that sent a man
to a hospital with a bloodied and swollen nose.
The Arizona Department of Public Safety report accuses Suttle and Fessler of
obstructing the investigation and lying about the involvement of the Arizona Chapter
of the Iron Brotherhood Motorcycle Club.
Two others - Phoenix police Officer Eric Amato and Greg Kauffman, a supervisor
at an Ajo ambulance service - are accused of assault. The report also recommends
a charge of disorderly conduct against an alleged victim, Justin Stafford,
and says a second person received minor facial injuries.

Wow.
What's sad is, Moc's (the bar) doesn't allow colors but one of the cops 'flashed his badge' to get in. Walking into Moc's with "Iron Brotherhood" all over your fucking jacket was just looking for a fight. They knew what they were doing.
