What information is
necessary?
• A misconduct complaint can be filed with little
information. An investigator will assist as best as
possible by trying to “fill in the blanks.” However,
providing all the information you have will help to make
the investigation thorough and complete.
• Key facts include:
• Who committed the misconduct (if you don’t have a
name, a description or other identifying info is helpful).
• Where and when the misconduct occurred.
• What happened (What did the officer say or do?)
