**Four State Police Officers Temporarily Removed in Rosarito Amid Complaints**
In Rosarito, four officers from the State Police have been temporarily reassigned following two formal complaints that have surfaced since the state police assumed responsibility for local security on March 7th. According to Laureano Carrillo RodrÃguez, the Secretary of Citizen Security in Baja California, one complaint was lodged with the State Attorney General’s Office, and another was registered with the Internal Control Body of the security department.
“We have received complaints concerning state police actions,” Carrillo RodrÃguez stated. “Currently, there are two formal cases under investigation.” He also mentioned that rumors on social media are being scrutinized, although no further formal reports have been filed.
As for the officers, Carrillo RodrÃguez emphasized that, while there is no current evidence linking them to any misconduct, they have been relocated as a precaution while the investigation proceeds. This move comes amidst the transition of security responsibilities in Rosarito, with the municipal police force undergoing thorough evaluations, including psychological and medical assessments, toxicology screening, and polygraph testing. Even their firearms are being examined for serial numbers and codes.
Holding officers accountable is crucial in maintaining trust within the community. This situation could mark the start of a needed overhaul in Rosarito’s law enforcement.
