Bay Area cop charged with masturbating in front of household throughout domestic 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 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 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 at the family’s residence, in keeping with an announcement of information supplied by the District Attorney’s Workplace.

The mother, recognized in the statement as Ms. S, the father, 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 role,” per the statement.

Dominguez began the investigation by speaking to the daughter.

“Officer Dominguez took curiosity in her and continued to work together nearly exclusively 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. Whereas he “milled across the home,” in response to the statement, “he managed to maintain 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 together. After Dominguez was handed the monitor, the mother 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 adopted her into the kitchen.

As he turned around to face Ms. S, she “saw Officer Dominguez’s penis outdoors of his pants totally uncovered,” the assertion read.

The mother and daughter then went to search out Mr. A, the father, they usually referred to as an uncle who was near 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 past disturbing,” District Attorney Jeff Rosen mentioned. “Regulation enforcement officers reply to our houses to assist crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

This isn't 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 Legal professional’s Workplace said. His arraignment is scheduled for June 22.
