Bay Area cop charged with masturbating in entrance of household during home violence name

A Bay Space police officer has been charged with masturbating in entrance of a family that known as police during a fraught home violence call.

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

An unidentified particular person whose family put a domestic violence restraining order against him had allegedly violated the order and was on the family’s dwelling, in response to an announcement of facts supplied by the District Lawyer’s Office.

The mother, recognized within the assertion as Ms. S, the father, Mr. A, and their 23-year-old daughter called police. Dominguez and two other officers arrived at the scene, with the former taking the “lead investigative position,” per the statement.

Dominguez started the investigation by talking to the daughter.

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

After she gave the officer a potential location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the other two officers to conduct the search. While he “milled around the residence,” according to the statement, “he managed to maintain the daughter in view of his Body Worn Digicam.”

The daughter then asked Dominguez about her brother’s GPS monitor, which they — and Ms. S, the mom — went to retrieve together. After Dominguez was handed the monitor, the mother alleged that Dominguez unzipped his pants and commenced rubbing his crotch. The daughter additionally 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 circled to face Ms. S, she “noticed Officer Dominguez’s penis exterior of his pants fully exposed,” the assertion learn.

The mom and daughter then went to find Mr. A, the father, and so they called an uncle who was near the scene.

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

“The charged conduct is past disturbing,” District Legal professional Jeff Rosen stated. “Legislation enforcement officers respond to our houses to assist crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

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

Dominguez is on administrative depart following the incident, the District Lawyer’s Office said. His arraignment is scheduled for June 22.
