Ship Bottom Borough Police Department

Reported as: Ship Bottom Boro PDMunicipal police

Jurisdiction context

Not a civil service jurisdiction

This department is not among the NJCSC Appendix A jurisdictions, so major discipline here follows a different statutory track (generally N.J.S.A. 40A:14 for municipal police), with appeals that usually go to the Superior Court rather than the Civil Service Commission.

See the context on non-civil-service departments.

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

In brief

Ship Bottom Borough Police Department, municipal police in Ocean County, named 3 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and reported 3 investigations. Its rate of 100 per 100 officers matched the Ocean County median of 100 and ran below the 125.9 municipal median. A rate at the county median leaves the reading open, since volume can follow either misconduct or a department's recordkeeping. Of the 3 investigations detailed for 2025, 1 reported a sustained complaint. Improper Arrest led the allegation categories, with Other Departmental Rule Violation also listed.

One major discipline record appears across the 2020-2025 releases, from 2024. Ship Bottom Boro received an A on the report card, at the 18th percentile among 100 peers in the 1-14 officers band, a medium-confidence grade.

Military surplus equipment (1033 program)

In brief

Written by this site from the figures below.

Ship Bottom Borough Police Department received two recorded line items of surplus military equipment through the federal military surplus program, both dated 2026 and both under Trucks and truck tractors, wheeled. The recorded value carried on those transfers is $0, a field that records original Department of Defense acquisition cost rather than current or market value. These are transfers received rather than 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.

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

Ship Bottom Borough Police Department received $0 of tactical 1033 equipment value per sworn officer (original cost, divided by its latest FBI-reported staffing): the 39th percentile among municipal police agencies of similar size (1-14 officers, n=89).

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.

3 investigations reported for 2025[1] ÷ 13 sworn officers the department reported to the FBI for 2025[22] = 23.1 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.

Public records requests

Records requests about this department filed through OPRAmachine, an independent site that files Open Public Records Act requests in public and publishes the responses.[4] This is a third-party, user-generated source, separate in origin from the Attorney General records elsewhere on this page.

Current as of 12 July 2026. These figures are a point-in-time snapshot and do not update: requests filed to OPRAmachine after that date do not appear here. For live activity, see this body on OPRAmachine.

This department has no separate listing on OPRAmachine. Records requests for it are handled through Ship Bottom Borough, the municipal records custodian, which also fields requests about permits, property, and code enforcement. Only the 12 requests whose subject line indicates it concerns the police department are counted below. The other 60 filed to Ship Bottom Borough are about something else and are not shown.

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 count is an undercount, by design. Requests to Ship Bottom Borough are sorted by subject line, because that custodian also handles permits, property, and code enforcement. A request that is genuinely about the police but carries a vague subject line, and many do read only “OPRA Request,” is not counted here. The sorting is this site's own reading of the request titles, not a fact from the source, and it is deliberately cautious: it would rather miss a police request than show you somebody's building permit.

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.
