Officer Caught Snitching on Domestic Abuse Victim

  • Summary

  • In 2013, a Clovis, California police officer found out that his girlfriend Desiree Martinez had reported him for physically abusing her—while Desiree was trapped in a room with him, leading to further horrific abuse. Incredibly, the informant was another officer who knew about Desiree’s boyfriend’s history of domestic violence. Desiree later sued that officer informant for enabling the abuse, but an appeals court granted qualified immunity to block the suit. Now, Desiree and IJ are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to make clear that government officials who knowingly place people in danger can be held accountable. Today we talk with IJ attorneys Anya Bidwell and Patrick Jaicomo about Desiree’s fight for justice. https://youtu.be/mmViazhu130 Become a Monthly Donor Are you looking for a rewarding and consistent way to support IJ’s work?
