Bay Space cop charged with masturbating in front of family during domestic violence name

A Bay Space police officer has been charged with masturbating in front of a family that known as police throughout a fraught domestic violence name.

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 household put a domestic violence restraining order towards him had allegedly violated the order and was at the family’s house, according to an announcement of info provided by the District Lawyer’s Workplace.

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

Dominguez began the investigation by speaking to the daughter.

“Officer Dominguez took curiosity in her and continued to work together almost exclusively together with her,” the statement learn.

After she gave the officer a potential location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the opposite two officers to conduct the search. Whereas he “milled across the dwelling,” in line with the statement, “he managed to keep the daughter in view of his Physique Worn Digicam.”

The daughter then asked Dominguez about her brother’s GPS monitor, which they — and Ms. S, the mom — went to retrieve collectively. After Dominguez was handed the monitor, the mother 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 mom a glass of water. Dominguez allegedly followed her into the kitchen.

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

The mother and daughter then went to find Mr. A, the father, and so they known as an uncle who was close to the scene.

When Mr. A returned into the kitchen, he “noticed Officer Dominguez dealing with out of the kitchen along 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 again to work.

“The charged habits is beyond disturbing,” District Legal professional Jeff Rosen said. “Law enforcement officers reply to our houses to assist crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

This isn't the first misconduct incident throughout the past 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 at the scene, KRON reported.

Dominguez is on administrative go away following the incident, the District Legal professional’s Office said. His arraignment is scheduled for June 22.
