Jurisdiction context

Civil service jurisdiction

Discipline at this department is governed by the Title 4A civil service framework, matched to Plainfield on the New Jersey Civil Service Commission roster.

Read how the process works or the Title 4A glossary. Browse NJCSNavigator’s civil service jurisdiction directory for the full local-jurisdiction roster.

Reflects the NJCSC Appendix A roster as of 2026-07-04. Context only, not legal advice.

Radio encryption

Plainfield Police Department encrypts its radio communications (P25 ADP, all operations), according to PoliceRadioEncryption.com, as of 2026-03-06 (verified).

AnalysisThis site treats radio encryption as a meaningful transparency signal. When a department closes its radio traffic to the public, the public loses a real-time window into how it operates. That is context for reading the discipline and internal affairs records on this page, not a figure drawn from them.

In brief

Plainfield Police Department named 22 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and reported 25 investigations. Its rate of 113.6 per 100 officers fell below the Union County median of 137 and the 125.9 municipal median. A rate under the median may reflect less misconduct, or a department that documents fewer of the complaints brought to it. None of the 25 investigations detailed for 2025 reported sustained complaints. Leading allegation categories were not reported for 2025.

Ten major discipline records appear across the 2020-2025 releases, from 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. Plainfield received a D on the report card, at the 62nd percentile among 93 peers in the 60+ officers group, a high-confidence grade.

Military surplus equipment (1033 program)

In brief

Written by this site from the figures below.

All six of Plainfield Police Department's recorded line items shipped in 2014, with a combined recorded value of $204,599 at original Department of Defense acquisition cost rather than current or market value. Categories this site classes as tactical account for $153,408 of that. Three entries in Trucks and truck tractors, wheeled make up $151,374, with Miscellaneous communication equipment at $38,625 and ADPE system configuration at $12,566 behind them. What the file records is equipment received in that year, not a current inventory, and non-controlled items may be disposed of after one year. Receiving surplus equipment through the program is not misconduct, and this federal data is separate in origin from the Attorney General discipline records on this page.

Surplus military equipment transferred to this agency under the Defense Department's 1033 program, as recorded by the Defense Logistics Agency.

AnalysisMilitarization Index: computed by this site, not an official statistic.

Plainfield Police Department received $1,199 of tactical 1033 equipment value per sworn officer (original cost, divided by its latest FBI-reported staffing): the 69th percentile among municipal police agencies of similar size (60+ officers, n=93).

A higher index is not automatically worse. It divides cumulative transfers over the covered window by current staffing, so it measures how intensively an agency has participated in the program, not what it holds today. See the methodology.

Investigations per 100 officers named in that year's IA investigations (the Attorney General's own "Number of Officers" field, a distinct-officer count drawn from the IA case data itself, not a department headcount). A higher number is ambiguous on its own: it can reflect more misconduct, or a stronger internal reporting culture. Medians are computed within the same agency type only.

AnalysisA second, independent rate using FBI-reported staffing instead.

25 investigations reported for 2025[1] ÷ 128 sworn officers the department reported to the FBI for 2025[22] = 19.5 per 100 FBI-reported sworn officers. This is a genuinely different denominator from the rate above, not a correction of it; the two should not be added or averaged together. See the methodology for why these two officer counts diverge.

What this grade can and can't tell you

  • The underlying data is self-reported by agencies, one yearly snapshot at a time.
  • Allegations are not findings; many complaints end unfounded, exonerated, or not sustained.
  • There is no arrest or call-volume denominator in this data, so nothing here is a per-capita misconduct rate. A genuinely independent staffing-based rate, sourced from the FBI rather than this grade's own data, appears above when available. It is a different measurement, not a more accurate version of the grade.
  • A higher internal affairs volume is ambiguous: it can indicate more misconduct, or a more robust oversight and reporting culture. The grade weighs it anyway, because volume is what the record offers; that choice is published, not hidden.
  • The grade is one lens. The records it reads are on this page above.

What this section can and can't tell you

  • A request is not a finding. Every entry records what a member of the public asked for. None of it establishes that an agency did anything, and none of it is an allegation this site is making.
  • Statuses come from the requester, not the agency. On OPRAmachine the person who filed the request classifies the response they got, so “successful” means they said they got what they asked for. It is not the agency's word and not an adjudication.
  • Request volume is not a measure of misconduct. A long list usually reflects public interest, local journalism, or one determined requester. A short list usually means few people have asked.
  • This covers OPRAmachine only. Most OPRA requests in New Jersey are filed directly with agencies and never appear here, so this is a floor, not a total.
  • It is frozen at 12 July 2026. The figures come from a snapshot of OPRAmachine taken on that date and nothing refreshes them, so anything filed since is missing. Treat every number here as a lower bound that is only getting further out of date.

The match between this OPRAmachine body and this department is this site's inference, not a certified mapping. If it is wrong, we will remove it: corrections.

Questions and answers

What is a summary of Plainfield Police Department's internal affairs and discipline record?

Plainfield Police Department named 22 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and reported 25 investigations. Its rate of 113.6 per 100 officers fell below the Union County median of 137 and the 125.9 municipal median. A rate under the median may reflect less misconduct, or a department that documents fewer of the complaints brought to it. None of the 25 investigations detailed for 2025 reported sustained complaints. Leading allegation categories were not reported for 2025. Ten major discipline records appear across the 2020-2025 releases, from 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. Plainfield received a D on the report card, at the 62nd percentile among 93 peers in the 60+ officers group, a high-confidence grade.

How many internal affairs investigations did Plainfield Police Department report in 2025?

Plainfield Police Department reported 25 internal affairs investigations in 2025, according to New Jersey Attorney General data. 22 distinct officers were named in that year's IA investigations.

How many major discipline records does Plainfield Police Department have?

Plainfield Police Department has 10 major discipline records in the Attorney General's 2020-2025 releases, of which 0 were terminations. These are final, adjudicated actions, not allegations.

Does Plainfield Police Department encrypt its radio communications?

According to PoliceRadioEncryption.com, Plainfield Police Department encrypts all of its radio communications (P25 ADP), as recorded on 2026-03-06. This site treats radio encryption as a transparency signal, which is analysis, not a figure from the discipline data.

How many officers does Plainfield Police Department have?

Plainfield Police Department reported 128 full-time sworn officers to the FBI's Law Enforcement Employees census for 2025, 14.1% of them female. That is 2.25 sworn officers per 1,000 residents. This is a different measurement from the "officers named in IA cases" figure elsewhere on this page, which counts distinct officers in that year's internal affairs investigations, not total staffing.

What military surplus equipment has Plainfield Police Department received through the 1033 program?

Plainfield Police Department received 6 recorded line items of surplus military equipment through the Defense Department's 1033 program in 2014, with a total recorded value of $204,599 (original DoD acquisition cost, not current or market value). The largest category by recorded value was: Trucks and truck tractors, wheeled. Transfers are as recorded by the Defense Logistics Agency as of 2026-06-30; equipment acquired through the program is not necessarily still held.

What is the total recorded value of the 1033 equipment Plainfield Police Department received?

The surplus equipment recorded for Plainfield Police Department under the 1033 program totals $204,599 in original DoD acquisition cost, of which $153,408 is in categories this site classes as tactical (4 of 6 line items). These are original-cost figures at the time of transfer, not current or market value.

What does Plainfield Police Department pay its officers compared with local school staff?

The median pensionable salary for the 120 active Plainfield Police Department officers in the NJ Treasury pension file is $107,737. The median for the 958 TPAF-enrolled staff at PLAINFIELD BD OF ED is $93,698, a ratio of 1.15x. Against the Union County school-staff median the ratio is 1.21x. These are pensionable base salaries: they exclude overtime, stipends, longevity and leave payouts for both groups, and a school contract year and a police work year are different lengths. TPAF covers certificated school staff, not only classroom teachers.
