Complaint Investigation Report

The Department further requested and reviewed the Fremont Police Department Report #24-711003. As part of the investigation, interviews were conducted with the assigned police detective, facility staff, the party (RP) responsible, and clients. Reports show that there is no evidence of S2 assaulting C7.

Allegation: Staff assaulted the client with a gun

On 4/29/2025 at approximately 10 AM, the Department interviewed former Redwood Home resident Client 7 (C7) at 30262 Oakbrook Road, Hayward, CA 94544. C7 alleged that, on one occasion, Staff 2 (S2) tied C7 to a dining room chair, restrained C7’s hands behind C7’s back, taped C7’s mouth, and threatened C7 with a firearm.

The Department conducted interviews with 10 facility staff. No staff reported witnessing the alleged incident, and all staff stated they had never observed S2 behave in an assaultive or threatening manner toward residents. S2 denied the allegation and denied possessing or owning a firearm. S2 reported that, at times, C7 would act out things C& sees in movies. C7 would always role-play and want S2 to role-play with C7. C7 would ask S2 to pretend to hold S2's fingers and play pretend. However, S2 believed C7 may have misinterpreted this role-play scenario. No corroborating evidence was obtained to support the allegation.
