There is a pending investigation being done on Matt Tomlin and maybe pending Pitchess motion rulings

 


Remember my posts last year on Matt Tomlin resigning from HCSO and being investigated. HCSO and the County said records regarding Tomlin weren't disclosable. St. Bernards where Tomlin has been a coach and is currently working said they had no intention of asking Tomlin to resign and did not directly respond to the allegations and claiming someone was slandering Tomlin.

There was no media today at the 995 motion hearing for Michael Acosta and several revelations were dropped. Tomlin has been mentioned in Acosta's documents . I do know at least one or more Pitchess motions will be filed regarding Matt Tomlin. What I do not know is if that is the same motion Deputy District Attorney Ian Harris referred to this morning.

Mr.Harris said there is a pending investigation regarding Tomlin on an "unrelated matter" and suggested that there shouldbe a ruling pending a Pitchess motion. 

A Pitchess motion is a defendant’s request to the court to look at a law enforcement officer’s personnel file to see if there are any complaints or evidence of police misconduct. 

I  contacted HCSO. HCSO PIO Samantha Karges responded, "Hi John,There are no pending internal investigations related to Matt Tomlin. I’m not sure what the courts are referring to."

Maybe the investigation is being done by the DA's office or another agency?
