According to KRQE, several officers from the Albuquerque Police Department (APD) are currently under a federal probe. Furthermore, APD has stated that it is broadening an ongoing internal review. This investigation now includes a lieutenant from the Internal Affairs Division.

Promising thoroughness in the process, Chief Medina, in a recent press release, declared that no aspect of the investigation would be ignored. The officer under scrutiny, although not named, has been temporarily reassigned.
