Deputy Frank Gomez – Grant County Sheriff’s Department

Written by CBKN76

Deputy Gomez was implicated in a civil lawsuit concerning the 2016 murder-suicide of Nikki Bascom by Silver City Police Captain Mark Contreras. The lawsuit alleges that Deputy Gomez, along with other law enforcement officers, neglected to act on reports of Contreras’ threats and abusive behavior towards Bascom. The suit contends that this inaction and internal handling of complaints contributed to Bascom’s death.
