Ricardo Delgado – Roswell Police Department

Written by CBKN76

On May 23, 2020, Officer Delgado arrested a woman who, while handcuffed, kicked him near the groin area. In response, Delgado forcefully pulled her out of the patrol car by her hair and jacket, threw her to the ground, and placed his knee on her neck for over three minutes. The woman sustained a broken nose and required medical attention. Delgado resigned in lieu of termination from the Roswell Police Department and was later involved in a fatal shooting of an unarmed man on July 1, 2021, while serving as a Chaves County Deputy.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
