Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs under CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION for alleged "pay-to-play" scheme

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has announced an official criminal probe in Gov. Katie Hobbs, who is accused of participating in an illegal "pay-to-play" scheme. Mayes wrote a letter from his office's criminal division to President Pro Tempore and Sen. T.J. Shope explaining that the state attorney general's office will, in fact, be probing Hobbs over a criminal scheme involving a housing developer and foster children throughout Arizona who are being sent to group homes. "Thank you for your referral dated June 5, 2024, regarding Sunshine Residential Homes," reads the letter to Shope, signed by chief counsel Nick Klingerman. "The Criminal Division of the Attorney General's Office is statutorily authorized to investigate the allegations and offenses outlined in your letter. To that end, the Attorney General's office will be opening an investigation." (Related: Back in late 2022, we reported that Hobbs was apparently involved in an election theft operation to make herself governor against the will of Arizona voters.)

Is Katie Hobbs a criminal?

According to reports, the pay-for-play scheme in which Hobbs is a participant involves funneling foster children to group homes that contribute cash to Hobbs are her "dark money" network. The Arizona Republic, a media outlet that Kyle Becker describes as "left-wing," reported that all across the board, Arizona is putting fewer children in group homes. In February 2023, the state's Department of Child Safety (DCS) rejected a request to increase the largest group home network by 20 percent. Just days after that decision was made, Sunshine Residential Homes donated $100,000 to Hobbs and her "dark money" network. Three months later, Sunshine conveniently received a 30 percent increase approval. State Sen. Jake Hoffman revealed that the state contractor actually donated much more than that, around $400,000, to both Hobbs and other state Democrats. Hobbs and other Democrats also received millions more in state money due to their connections. DCS also revealed that over the past year, Sunshine increased its rates for child care by a whopping 60 percent. This means that potentially millions more taxpayer dollars are being funneled into the company and Hobbs' pay-for-play network. The Arizona Republic called on Mayes or the state legislature to investigate Hobbs for official corruption. Mayes took up the quest, as evidenced by the above letter, but there are concerns about how Mayes became AG in the first place. Keep in mind that this is the same Hobbs who certified her own election despite all the Election Day chaos that was reported out of Maricopa County. This includes the election of Mayes, who became AG with what Becker describes as "a statistically improbable lead of 280 votes." "R*gged elections have consequences," Becker further wrote on X. The fact that both AZ Central and the Arizona Republic are calling for an investigation just goes to show that this is not a partisan effort by Republicans to remove Democrats. It is a justice effort to root out the corruption in Arizona politics that is destroying the state. "My question to these two is: What changed to prompt you to do some real journalism?" someone on X asked of these two media outlets. "Arizona will likely hire outside legal counsel since Katie Hobbs and Kris Mayes have huge conflicts," wrote another. "Mayes represents DCS and does not supervise her Assistant AGs who prosecute innocent families, forcing their children into such death trap group homes."
