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

A Bay Area police officer has been charged with masturbating in entrance of a family that known as police throughout a fraught home violence name.

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

An unidentified particular person whose household put a home violence restraining order against him had allegedly violated the order and was at the family’s home, in response to a statement of details offered by the District Lawyer’s Office.

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

Dominguez began the investigation by speaking to the daughter.

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

After she gave the officer a possible location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the opposite two officers to conduct the search. While he “milled around the house,” in line with the assertion, “he managed to keep the daughter in view of his Physique 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 commenced rubbing his crotch. The daughter also allegedly witnessed this.

Later, the daughter went into the kitchen to get her mom 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 outside of his pants fully uncovered,” the assertion read.

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

When Mr. A returned into the kitchen, he “saw 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 behavior is past disturbing,” District Lawyer Jeff Rosen stated. “Legislation enforcement officers reply to our houses to assist crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

This isn't the primary misconduct incident within the past 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 depart following the incident, the District Lawyer’s Workplace said. His arraignment is scheduled for June 22.
