**Four State Police Officers in Rosarito Temporarily Removed Amid Investigations**
Four officers from the State Police have been temporarily relieved from their duties in Rosarito following the submission of two formal complaints against them since the state police assumed local security responsibilities on March 7th. According to Laureano Carrillo Rodríguez, Secretary of Citizen Security in Baja California, one complaint was lodged with the State Attorney General’s Office, while another was filed with the Internal Control Body of the security department.
“We have received formal complaints about the conduct of certain state police officers. Two cases are being investigated,” stated Carrillo Rodríguez. He also mentioned that although allegations have surfaced on social media, no additional formal reports have been filed beyond these initial cases.
**Officers Temporarily Reassigned**
The four officers in question have been reassigned to ensure safety while investigations are ongoing. Carrillo Rodríguez clarified that there is currently no substantial evidence directly linking them to the allegations, emphasizing, “They have been relocated purely for precautionary reasons during the investigation process.”
Since the commencement of state police oversight on March 7th, the local municipal police force—comprising 264 officers—is undergoing a rigorous vetting process. This includes psychological, medical, and toxicology evaluations, social background checks, polygraph tests, and inspection of firearms for proper serial numbers and codes.
While it’s not common to see law enforcement personnel held accountable, this situation signals a potential shift towards greater accountability within Rosarito’s security framework.
