On 08/06/2020 at 1:24pm interviews were conducted with family of R1 and on 08/10/2020 at 1:40pm, Investigator Balarie conducted an interview with R1. Furthermore, Investigator Balarie also obtained and reviewed the police report from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department and the facility video surveillance relating to the incident.

Information gathered during the course of the investigation revealed that S1 entered the room of R1 at approximately 7:27pm with a food tray and exits room at 7:31pm. S1 then comes back to R1s room at 7:34pm with ice cream and exits the room at 7:37pm. Interviews conducted revealed that at approximately 8:15pm, S2 received a call from the family of R1 stating that R1 was distraught and informed that R1 had being sexually assaulted by S1. Paramedics and police were immediately contacted to assess R1. R1 did not have any physical injuries therefore no medical attention was obtained. Based on all the information gathered, it was revealed that R1’s interviews with various deputy officers and investigator varied at each account and contained multiple inconsistencies of the alleged incident. Moreover, S1 denied the alleged incident and the deputies did not find sufficient evidence to arrest S1. Based on all information gathered, there is insufficient evidence to determine that R1 was sexually assaulted by S1.

Exit interview conducted/ No citations issued/ A copy of report was report was emailed for signature.
