Bay Space cop charged with masturbating in entrance of family throughout domestic violence name

A Bay Area police officer has been charged with masturbating in entrance of a household that called police during a fraught home violence call.

The Santa Clara County District Lawyer’s Office 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 individual whose family put a domestic violence restraining order towards him had allegedly violated the order and was on the household’s residence, in accordance with a statement of info offered by the District Attorney’s Workplace.

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

Dominguez started the investigation by speaking to the daughter.

“Officer Dominguez took curiosity in her and continued to interact nearly completely with her,” the assertion learn.

After she gave the officer a possible location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the other two officers to conduct the search. Whereas he “milled around the dwelling,” based on the statement, “he managed to maintain the daughter in view of his Body Worn Camera.”

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 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 followed her into the kitchen.

As he turned around to face Ms. S, she “saw Officer Dominguez’s penis outdoors of his pants fully exposed,” the statement learn.

The mother and daughter then went to seek out Mr. A, the father, and they called an uncle who was close to the scene.

When Mr. A returned into the kitchen, he “saw Officer Dominguez going through out of the kitchen along 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 behavior is beyond disturbing,” District Attorney Jeff Rosen stated. “Legislation enforcement officers reply to our houses to assist crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

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

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