Sheriff Robert G. Luna expressed concern about the incident, stating, "These actions undermine the integrity of our Department, the trust of our community, and the safety of those we are sworn to protect."
Benza's actions came in response to a trivial confrontation and defied all procedures expected of law enforcement, ultimately following a civilian who simply expressed frustration.
The U.S. Department of Justice emphasized the significant breach of conduct, noting that Benza's penchant for violence and abuse of power is unacceptable in policing.
