    Officer Jorge Santos faced multiple complaints for conducting illegal searches and seizures, particularly targeting Hispanic fishermen. Evidence suggested he fabricated an informant as a pretext for the attempted robbery of a fishing boat. An internal report found 24 departmental infractions related to this incident. While on leave, Santos assaulted a motorist, leading to criminal charges. He resigned after 20 months of paid leave without facing administrative discipline.
