Queja formal: Actitud imparcial y cortesía

La querellante alega que llamó al Departamento de Policía de Austin después de que su esposo le robara su cartera, su teléfono y entrara a su casa sin permiso. Cuando los oficiales de la policía de Austin llegaron a la escena, le dijeron a la querellante que no podían hacer nada porque se trataba de su esposo y él tenía derecho a no regresar los artículos. La OPO recomienda que esta alegación reciba una clasificación B.

NOTICE OF FORMAL COMPLAINT
ICMS #: 2021-0690
July 14, 2021
Complaint: The complainant alleges she called for police assistance for domestic abuse because
her husband had taken her purse, ripped her phone from her hand, broke things in her house and
accused her of taking his car keys, which she did not. Complainant alleges three officers came but
told her because it was her husband it was community property and he has a right not to give the
items back and to resolve the issue among themselves. Complainant alleges later she called a
supervisor
who came out and the other 3 officers also came out
and they left with her husband and her purse. Complainant alleges Officer
was very
accommodating and took her complaint and gave her the information to contact OPO to file
a
complaint against the other 3 officers. Complainant stated that officers need to be trained to
handle/de-escalate domestic violence situations.
This notice of formal complaint is a request for Internal Affairs to initiate an investigation to
determine if the employee conduct is within compliance of APD policy, Civil Service Rules, and
Municipal Civil Service Rules.
