In May 2020, Delgado was investigated for dragging a handcuffed woman out of his police car by her hair, slamming her face into the pavement, and kneeling on the back of her neck for approximately three minutes, according to the lawsuit. Her nose was broken during the incident.

The Roswell Police Department found the incident was a “clear example of how officers should not conduct themselves,” referred the case to the 5th Judicial District Attorney and reported it to the LEA Board, according to the lawsuit.

Delgado resigned in lieu of termination in June 2020, according to the lawsuit. The next day he applied to the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office, saying he left his previous position for “better opportunities,” the suit states.

It’s unclear whether the 5th Judicial District Attorney has made a determination in the case, and no one from the office returned the Journal’s phone call. No criminal charges have been filed against Delgado.

According to the lawsuit, neither Delgado nor Ramos – nor the majority of the other deputies with the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office – had completed their required yearly firearm qualification. And none of the deputies with the office had completed training on how to interact with people with mental impairments, the lawsuit states.

When the LEA Board heard the case against Delgado it dismissed it, citing the “totality of the circumstances and lack of available evidence.”

Ives said there is a pattern of the LEA Board getting referrals regarding serious use of force and not taking action.
