Bay Space cop charged with masturbating in entrance of family during home violence call

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

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

An unidentified particular person whose household put a home violence restraining order in opposition to him had allegedly violated the order and was on the family’s home, according to a statement of information offered by the District Legal professional’s Office.

The mom, identified in the statement as Ms. S, the daddy, Mr. A, and their 23-year-old daughter called police. Dominguez and two different officers arrived on the scene, with the former taking the “lead investigative position,” per the statement.

Dominguez started the investigation by speaking to the daughter.

“Officer Dominguez took curiosity in her and continued to work together almost completely with her,” the assertion read.

After she gave the officer a potential location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the opposite two officers to conduct the search. Whereas he “milled across the home,” in response to the assertion, “he managed to keep the daughter in view of his Body Worn Digital camera.”

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 mom alleged that Dominguez unzipped his pants and started 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 adopted her into the kitchen.

As he circled to face Ms. S, she “saw Officer Dominguez’s penis outside of his pants absolutely uncovered,” the statement read.

The mom and daughter then went to seek out Mr. A, the father, and so they referred to as an uncle who was close to the scene.

When Mr. A returned into the kitchen, he “noticed Officer Dominguez going through out of the kitchen with his erect penis in his left hand and his proper hand on the counter.” Mr. A left the house; a couple of minutes minutes later, Dominguez allegedly left and went back to work.

“The charged habits is beyond disturbing,” District Legal professional Jeff Rosen mentioned. “Regulation enforcement officers respond to our homes to assist crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

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

Dominguez is on administrative depart following the incident, the District Attorney’s Workplace mentioned. His arraignment is scheduled for June 22.
