**Four State Officers Temporarily Reassigned in Rosarito Amid Allegations of Misconduct**
In a recent development in Rosarito, four state police officers have been temporarily reassigned following two formal complaints. This move comes shortly after the state police assumed control of local security on March 7th. According to Laureano Carrillo RodrÃguez, the Secretary of Citizen Security in Baja California, these complaints have been lodged with both the State Attorney General’s Office and the Internal Control Body of the security department.
Carrillo RodrÃguez stated, “We’ve received complaints about the state police. Currently, we have two formal cases that are under investigation.” He added that while there have been allegations circulating on social media, there haven’t been any additional formal reports filed on those matters.
Regarding the officers involved, Carrillo RodrÃguez clarified that they were moved for precautionary reasons while investigations are conducted. “There’s no concrete evidence linking the officers to these accusations; however, they are reassigned during the investigation process,” he explained.
Since the shift on March 7th, the state police have been overseeing Rosarito’s security, replacing the local force of 264 municipal officers. These officers are undergoing various evaluations, including psychological, medical, toxicology tests, and polygraph exams, as part of a thorough vetting process. Additionally, their firearms are being checked for serial numbers and codes.
The community is hopeful that this will mark the beginning of necessary reforms in Rosarito’s security forces, ensuring accountability and improved local safety.
