Complaint of unfair targeting by police officer
Investigation | 31 May 2022
Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS)
A complainant alleged that a police officer was unfairly targeting her for enforcement of the window tint on her vehicle. The complainant further alleged that the officer had a “vendetta” against her and that he had stopped her numerous times due to the window tint on her vehicle which the officer stated was not in compliance with the Traffic Act regulations.
As part of our investigation, we reviewed body camera footage provided by the police officer and found no evidence that the officers’ conduct was unsatisfactory regarding the interactions with this complainant. We invited the complainant to review the body camera footage provided and she declined to do so.
The complaint was not supported and the Ombudsman made no recommendations in this matter.
