Understanding Police Misconduct in Napa County

Police misconduct occurs when law enforcement officers violate citizens' civil rights through excessive force, abuse of power, or other improper actions. While most officers serve honorably, instances of serious misconduct can lead to devastating consequences for victims and their families.

The Napa County District Attorney's Office and Internal Affairs Division investigate allegations of police misconduct. However, victims often need independent legal representation to protect their rights and pursue compensation for their injuries.
