All complaints will be forwarded to the Division Commander who will review and process the complaint in accordance with Chapter 400 of the Sheriff's Department's General Orders.
- All complaints of racial-based profiling, upon conclusion will be forwarded to the Sheriff and will contain findings, suggestions for disciplinary action, or changes in policy, training, or tactics.
