Allegation category

Domestic violence (Non-Criminal)

Rights / integrity tier

Grouped into that tier by this site, not by the reporting agency.

New Jersey law enforcement agencies recorded 798 allegations in this category between 2021 and 2025, the 19th-most most reported of the 31 categories and 1.0% of all allegations statewide.

These are complaints, not findings. A complaint is recorded when somebody makes it, whether or not an investigation later sustained it, so nothing on this page establishes that any officer did anything.
