Study Notes
Domestic Violence Response
- The Escambia County Sheriff's Office aims to reduce domestic violence incidents and protect victims through a combination of law enforcement and community services.
- Domestic violence investigations will be actively pursued, and arrests made when probable cause exists and the suspect is located.
Deputy Response to Domestic Violence Calls
- Deputies should maintain a high level of caution and prioritize their safety and the safety of others at the scene.
- Backup deputies should not cancel their response until at least two deputies are on the scene and have made contact with the complainant or established control of the situation.
- The first deputy on the scene should:
- Position their patrol vehicle safely
- Approach the residence or structure cautiously
- Establish control of the scene
- Identify and separate parties involved
- Request additional resources as needed (e.g. medical response, backup units)
Investigating Domestic Violence Incidents
- Deputies should:
- Document all incidents, even if no arrest is made
- Take photographs of injuries and evidence
- Collect physical evidence and witness statements
- Identify the primary aggressor and document their actions
- Determine if a crime was committed and make an arrest if probable cause exists
- Explain the victim's rights and provide them with a Domestic Violence Pamphlet and Victim's Rights Brochure
Reports and Documentation
- Offense reports should include:
- Detailed descriptions of the incident
- Demeanor of parties involved
- Statements from witnesses and victims
- Evidence collected and photographs taken
- Victim notification forms and Domestic Violence Questionnaires
- Arrest reports should include probable cause information for the arrest
Victim Assistance
- Deputies should:
- Convey concern for the victim's safety
- Inform the victim about obtaining an injunction
- Advise the victim about the processing of the case
- Complete the Victim's Notification Form
- Provide the victim with a Domestic Violence Pamphlet and Victim's Rights Brochure
- Refer the victim to a domestic violence center or shelter if needed
Custody of Children and Elderly/Disabled Adults
- If a parent or legal guardian is arrested or hospitalized, the deputy should:
- Contact the Abuse Registry to determine placement of children or elderly/disabled adults
- Arrange transportation to a shelter or meeting place with a representative from the domestic violence center
Emergency Temporary Injunction for Protection
- The Emergency Temporary Injunction for Protection provides a means by which a victim can obtain protection from the court on weekends or holidays.
- The injunction can provide for:
- Restraining the respondent from assaulting or abusing the victim
- Providing sole custody of minor children to the petitioner
- Providing exclusive possession of the dwelling to the petitioner
- Prohibiting the respondent from contacting the victim or going to certain places
- The deputy should:
- Take the victim's statement and complete the "Law Enforcement Procedures for Ex Parte Injunctions against Domestic Violence" form
- Contact the on-call duty judge to obtain a verbal order
- Serve the respondent with the order and provide a copy to the victim
Violations of Injunctions for Protection
-
There are eight ways to criminally violate a Domestic Violence Injunction, including:
- Refusing to vacate the shared dwelling
- Going to or being within 500 feet of the petitioner's residence or other specified places
- Committing an act of domestic violence against the petitioner
- Telephoning, contacting, or communicating with the petitioner directly or indirectly
- Defacing or destroying the petitioner's personal property
-
