According to Fox 10 Phoenix, Phoenix Police Sergeant Dusten Mullen was fired after an internal investigation into his conduct at an anti-ICE student protest near Hamilton High School in Chandler. The incident occurred in late January near the Hamilton High School area. While off duty, Mullen was masked and armed with a handgun and extra magazines. Body‑worn camera footage from Chandler Police shows him stating that his plan was to let teenagers assault him so they could be arrested. During the protest, a teen allegedly splashed Mullen with water. Chandler officers intervened and ultimately escorted him from the area. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office later declined to prosecute the student, and Mullen’s termination was announced by Phoenix Police Chief Matt Giordano. No Chandler Police case number was provided publicly for this protest-related interaction, and the personnel investigation was completed, with Mullen now pursuing a civil lawsuit against Phoenix over the firing; that matter is proceeding in federal court. Previously, in 2025, Chandler Police investigated a traffic collision where Mullen, then off duty and not involved in the crash itself, arrived after the incident. Chandler officers reported that he identified himself as a Phoenix Police sergeant and was allegedly unprofessional and confrontational, attempting to influence the on‑scene investigation. Chandler Police later notified the Phoenix Police Professional Standards Bureau, which reviewed the crash reports, body‑worn camera footage, and witness statements. Phoenix Police Commander Mercedes Fortune stated that, under Phoenix Police Department standards, no policy violation was established and the inquiry was closed. Chandler Police have not released a local case number for this prior collision‑scene conduct, and no criminal charges were reported in connection with Mullen’s actions at that incident. The Economic Times reports a separate, serious case in Chandler involving a 25‑year‑old man, identified as George Randall, who was arrested after allegedly stabbing his sleeping mother in the neck inside a Chandler residence. The general location within Chandler has not been released. He faces charges including aggravated assault and attempted murder. The victim was transported for medical treatment; her current condition has not been detailed publicly. Chandler Police are continuing to investigate, and Randall remains in custody pending court proceedings. Case numbers for this incident were not available in open sources, but case status updates and court dates can be found via the City of Chandler Municipal Court online case search. Significant trends or patterns at this time include a focus on high‑profile, off‑duty conduct involving law enforcement personnel operating within Chandler’s jurisdiction, and one reported instance of severe domestic violence involving an adult child and parent inside a residence.
