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

A Bay Space police officer has been charged with masturbating in front of a household that referred to as police throughout a fraught home violence call.

The Santa Clara County District Legal professional’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 individual whose household put a domestic violence restraining order against him had allegedly violated the order and was on the household’s home, according to an announcement of details offered by the District Legal professional’s Office.

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

Dominguez started the investigation by speaking to the daughter.

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

After she gave the officer a doable location, Dominguez allegedly ordered the opposite two officers to conduct the search. Whereas he “milled across the home,” according to the statement, “he managed to maintain the daughter in view of his Body Worn Digicam.”

The daughter then requested 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 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 circled to face Ms. S, she “saw Officer Dominguez’s penis outside of his pants totally exposed,” the statement learn.

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

When Mr. A returned into the kitchen, he “saw Officer Dominguez dealing with 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 again to work.

“The charged conduct is past disturbing,” District Attorney Jeff Rosen said. “Law enforcement officers respond to our homes to help crime victims, not terrorize, traumatize, and create new victims.”

This isn't the first misconduct incident throughout the previous 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 on the scene, KRON reported.

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