Lee Sheehy, Chair - Minnesota Commission on Judicial Selection:

Is this corrupt Chief Deputy Dakota County Attorney Phillip Prokopowicz's latest perennial attempt to become a corrupt Dakota County judge? Hmm" inquiring minds want to know, don't they?

I helped toss a monkey wrench wrench into Prokopowicz's failed 2015 attempt, didn't I?


Commission on Judicial Selection Recommends First Judicial District Candidates to Governor Dayton November 6, 2015 Phillip Prokopowicz: Mr. Prokopowicz serves as the Chief Deputy Dakota County Attorney, where he is responsible for handling misdemeanor, gross misdemeanor, felony, and juvenile delinquency cases.

Mr. Prokopowicz has volunteered for the Inver Grove Heights Parks Department as a youth baseball and soccer coach and formerly served on the Board of Directors for the Inver Grove Heights Community Schools. https://mn.gov/governor/newsroom/?id=1055-100415


And, I also helped toss a monkey wrench wrench into Prokopowicz's failed 2016 attempt, didn't I?


Commission on Judicial Selection Recommends First Judicial District Candidates to Governor Dayton April 29, 2016. Phillip Prokopowicz: Mr. Prokopowicz serves as the Chief Deputy Dakota County Attorney, where he is responsible for handling misdemeanor, gross misdemeanor, felony, and juvenile delinquency cases.

Didn't Prokopowicz also try for the open corrupt judge spot in McLeod county? Hmm? Would you mind asking Prokopowicz when he plans on giving the Sandra Grazzini-Rucki the rest of her evidence for the high-profile Sandra Grazzini-Rucki case no. 19HA-CR-15-2669?


A. Co-Defendant Deirdre Evavold received 12 times the evidence as Appellant. Appellant’s Reply Brief, Addendum. Case Number: A16-1997 State of Minnesota, Respondent, vs. Sandra Grazzini-Rucki, Petitioner, page 10.
Would you mind asking Prokopowicz why he would charge a huge amount of money to a data subject when they have forma pauperis status in a high-profile criminal case? Ex. Sandra Grazzini-Rucki 9HA-CR-15-2669. https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/?id=611.271


Mr. Grigsby: May I make just one point?
The Court: Yes.
Mr. Grigsby: I think if I - - if the Court approves the in forma pauperis, then she gets it without cost. The rules don’t necessarily say they can withhold discovery until payment is made; it simply allows them to charge for costs. So there’s ways to accomplish this. They’re somehow interpreting the rule as a right to prepayment. This is not in the rules.
The Court: Okay.
Mr. Grigsby: They can bill somebody.
The Court: Right. And there is no motion before me in terms of a discovery dispute, and I sure hope that you folks can coordinate this because you need to go forward. There’s no doubt in my mind that you need your discovery. Transcript of proceedings for the 24th day of November, 2015 for Court File No. 19HA-CR-15-2669 State of Minnesota vs Sandra Grazzini-Rucki


Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz if he ever charges data subjects in high-profile criminal case the actual cost of data? Ex. Deirdre Elise Evavold in 19HA-CR-15-4227. https://mn.gov/admin/data-practices/data/rules/copy-costs/actual-cost/


Originally charged $210 for 6 CD’s that would fit onto 1 DVD. April 29th billed another $91 for a CD of police reports received since January 22, 2016. Missing Evidence: Lakville Officer Kelli Coughlin’s preliminary audio recorded statement from Gianna & Samantha Rucki Preliminary audio statement of David Rucki, Tamy Love, Rick Hakanson, Loralie Muslof, Kelli Coughlin, Jim Dronen, and Mathew Palmer – Deputy US Marshal, (Corresponding audo and video with a report.) Stearns County Evidence (Surveillance of Residence by David Rucki) (Private, criminal investigative data for Christian Fox) Blue ray disc containing MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension reports. … Appellant Brief, Case Number: A17-0200 State of Minnesota, Respondent, vs. Deirdre Elise Evavold, Appellant, page 13.


Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz the status of the following criminal investigations related to the high-profile Deirdre Elise Evavold case no. 19HA-CR-15-4227 and the high-profile Sandra Grazzini-Rucki case no. 9HA-CR-15-2669?

Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz why he would bring rape charges against a suspect when the main witness for the alleged victim says the alleged rapist is innocent?


NB: No. She told me that she said she wasn’t willing to have sex with him. She felt that she got raped. That’s what she told me. When I asked her – because when she told me that she was going to the police, because this stuff happened, I asked her, “If you feel that way you can. Remember I asked you if you were okay in that bathroom and you told me ‘Yes.” MG: And she knew that you and Igor were right outside the bathroom so if something were happening against her will, all she had to do is yell. Right? NB: All she had to do is yell. Igor even asked in Russian – I believe that is what they speak – if she was okay and he responded that she was okay. They both came out afterwards, after everything happened, and they both said they had sex. But then after that she started not feeling good. … MB: To me they were both intoxicated and afterwards she still wanted it – or she would have screamed if she didn’t want to have it. Like I have talked to my mother about this because it’s been bothering me since the incident happened. I don’t feel like Max should be (she was choking up about this and couldn’t speak)…. NB: She would freak out and she would tell me afterwards that what happened. I would have call the police police right there and then. But if it didn’t happen, don’t do that to Max especially you tell me that “I hope he calls me.” That’s not rape. That’s not nothing. I feel so bad for Max. Nicole Brekkestran = NB. MG = Mike Grostyan, private investigator for Maksim Simonov in 19HA-CR-15-1637. September 30, 2015


Prokopowicz loves malicious prosecution, doesn't he?


12/01/2016 Disposition (Judicial Officer: Wermager, Tim D.) 1. Criminal Sex Conduct-3rd Degree-Victim Mental Impair/Helpless (Not applicable - GOC) Acquitted 2. Criminal Sex Cond-5th Degree-Nonconsensual Sexual Contact (Not applicable - GOC) Acquitted Case No. 19HA-CR-15-1637 State of Minnesota vs Maksim A Simonov


Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz why a millionaire is allegedly on welfare in Dakota county?


Finding of Fact: “The Father receives child support services from Dakota County for the joint children pursuant to the Title IV D of the Social Security Act. Order concerning discovery, continuance and temporary support. Maria K. Pastoor, Child Support Magistrate Dated: August 11, 2016. Case No. 19AV-FA-11-1273 In the Marriage of Sandra Sue Grazzini-Rucki vs David Victor Rucki

Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz if he has a personal vendetta against Jeremy James Boles?


Just two days prior to the court hearing for the Contempt of Court charges and just two days prior to the Custody hearing that was to finalize the temporary order that had been put into place by the courts my ex decided to take our children to see a therapist. During the therapy session my children supposedly made claims of sexual abuse and physical abuse against me. The therapist (whom works right by James Backstrom's office) called the Apple Valley Police whom reviewed the therapist's notes from my children's first session and placed my children on a health and safety hold. The Officer never talked to nor seen my children. Not one person called me nor made a homevisit and still to this day almost two years later not one person has made a visit to my home. Mr. Backstrom is will aware of this but has allowed my children to be held from me with no contact for almost two years. The courts just recently sent me a new order out of the blue stating that they are terminating jurisdiction and that the case is now closed with no explanation. Thank You Jeremy James Boles (Unsigned statement)


Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz if he looked into the drug allegations against the mother of Jeremy James Boles' child, Colleem Angela Crouley?


I also found the guilty party’s cell phone that she CLAIMED the non-guilty party stole from her which is false. She tossed it out of anger and could not find where it went. One afternoon when deep cleaning the cellphone was found. I charged the phone and turned it on and found a large number of text messages that can show she is selling Adderall that is getting illegally, wanting to get coke and drunk during the day whle the kids are in her care. I would love to share this phone with your local police. .. The no-guilty part has a court order that I will try to attach to this email, if you don’t get it please let me know. You may feel free to call the non-guilty party at 612-300-9452 Jermey or my number is 612-990-3593 Erica.

Would you mind asking if Prokopowicz if assistant Dakota County attorney is a law enforcement officer or not?
From: Dakota County attorney; Sent: Monday, June 9, 2014 259 PM; To ‘Erica Stufflebeam’ This Office is in receipt of you June 8, 2014, email regarding the alleged violation of Colleen Crouley of the visitation schedule set forth in Judge MCManus’ order dated May 27, 2014. This Office does not investigate crimes, so if Mr Boles believes that Ms. Crouley has deprived him of his parental rights by failing to return the children in violation of the court order, he should report the matter to his local law enforcement agency. Alternatively, he may report it to the local law enforcement agency where Ms. Crouley resides. If an investigation is conducted and the investigating law enforcement agency believes a crime had been committed it will refer the case to the appropriate county or city attorney’s office for charging consideration. Regards, Kathy Keena, Criminal Division Head.
