**State Police Officers in Rosarito Temporarily Removed Amid Investigations**
Four officers from the State Police in Rosarito have been temporarily removed from their positions due to two formal complaints filed since the state police assumed control of local security on March 7th. The Secretary of Citizen Security in Baja California, Laureano Carrillo RodrÃguez, stated that one complaint was lodged with the State Attorney General’s Office, while another was addressed to the Internal Control Body of the security department.
Carrillo RodrÃguez mentioned that investigations are underway following the complaints about the state police, with two formal cases being considered. Additionally, he responded to circulating social media allegations, noting that these are also being investigated even though no further formal reports have been filed.
**Officers Reassigned During Investigation**
Regarding the removed officers, Carrillo RodrÃguez clarified that their relocation was made for safety purposes as the investigation by the Internal Control Body continues. “There is currently no evidence directly connecting them to these accusations, but they have been reassigned during this time,” he explained.
The State Police took over Rosarito’s security operations starting March 7th, replacing the local force of 264 municipal officers. These officers are undergoing thorough vetting, including psychological, medical, and toxicology tests, as well as social background checks and polygraph exams. Their firearms are also being inspected for serial numbers and other codes.
The wave of accountability could signal a significant shift toward improving transparency and trust in Rosarito’s security forces. It’s a reminder that justice can unfold when least expected, potentially marking the beginning of crucial reforms in local law enforcement.
