Title: Four State Police Officers in Rosarito Face Temporary Removal Following Complaints
Date: March 28, 2025
In a recent development within the Rosarito security forces, four state police officers have been temporarily removed from duty following two formal complaints lodged since the state police assumed control over local security operations on March 7th. The Secretary of Citizen Security for Baja California, Laureano Carrillo Rodríguez, reported that one complaint has been officially filed with the State Attorney General’s Office and another with the Internal Control Body of the security department.
“We have received complaints from civilians regarding the conduct of state police officers. As of now, two official cases are under investigation,” stated Carrillo Rodríguez. He also mentioned that while allegations continue to circulate on social media, no further formal complaints have been received so far.
Officers have been reassigned elsewhere during this investigation not due to evidence of wrongdoing but as a precautionary measure. Carrillo Rodríguez emphasized, “There is currently no concrete evidence linking the officers to the accusations. However, their reassignment is necessary to ensure a thorough investigation.”
The state police took over security duties in Rosarito, replacing 264 municipal officers. These officers are currently undergoing extensive vetting processes, which include psychological, medical, and toxicology testing, as well as social background checks and polygraph examinations. Additionally, their firearms are being closely inspected.
This incident underscores an emerging effort to possibly address underlying issues and promote accountability within Rosarito’s security forces. It may mark the beginning of substantive reform in ensuring ethical law enforcement practices.
