Bay Space cop charged with masturbating in entrance of household throughout home violence call

A Bay Area police officer has been charged with masturbating in entrance of a household that referred to as police during a fraught domestic violence name.

The Santa Clara County District Legal professional’s Workplace has charged Matthew Dominguez, 32, with a misdemeanor indecent publicity after responding to a restraining order call on the evening of April 21.

An unidentified individual whose family put a domestic violence restraining order against him had allegedly violated the order and was at the family’s home, in response to a press release of info provided by the District Attorney’s Workplace.

The mom, identified within the statement as Ms. S, the daddy, Mr. A, and their 23-year-old daughter referred to as police. Dominguez and two other officers arrived at the scene, with the previous taking the “lead investigative role,” per the assertion.

Dominguez began the investigation by talking to the daughter.

“Officer Dominguez took curiosity in her and continued to work together nearly solely together with her,” the assertion learn.

After she gave the officer a possible location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the other two officers to conduct the search. While he “milled across the residence,” in line with the statement, “he managed to keep the daughter in view of his Physique Worn Digicam.”

The daughter then requested Dominguez about her brother’s GPS monitor, which they — and Ms. S, the mother — went to retrieve collectively. After Dominguez was handed the monitor, the mom alleged that Dominguez unzipped his pants and commenced rubbing his crotch. The daughter also allegedly witnessed this.

Later, the daughter went into the kitchen to get her mother a glass of water. Dominguez allegedly followed her into the kitchen.

As he rotated to face Ms. S, she “saw Officer Dominguez’s penis outside of his pants absolutely exposed,” the assertion learn.

The mother and daughter then went to find Mr. A, the daddy, and so they called an uncle who was close to the scene.

When Mr. A returned into the kitchen, he “saw Officer Dominguez dealing with out of the kitchen along with his erect penis in his left hand and his right hand on the counter.” Mr. A left the home; a few minutes minutes later, Dominguez allegedly left and went again to work.

“The charged habits is beyond disturbing,” District Legal professional Jeff Rosen stated. “Law enforcement officers respond to our houses to help crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

This is not the first misconduct incident throughout the previous month involving San Jose police. An officer investigating the kidnapping of 3-month-old Brandon Cuellar was allegedly drunk during the investigation, tipping off an FBI agent on the scene, KRON reported.

Dominguez is on administrative leave following the incident, the District Lawyer’s Workplace stated. His arraignment is scheduled for June 22.
