Racial Profiling complaints are made in accordance with Senate Bill 1074, the Midland Police Department shall:
“accept complaints from any person who believes he or she has been stopped or searched based on racial, ethnic or national origin profiling. No person shall be discouraged, intimidated or coerced from filing a complaint, nor discriminated against because he or she filed such a complaint”.
Traffic tickets or differences of opinion between police officers and a citizen over the issuance of a traffic ticket, or regarding guilt or innocence of a person arrested will not be investigated, unless there is specific allegation of misconduct against the officer
