I been having this issue with the homeless where they have been defecating across my place. I called PH police department and they were very helpful where the homeless stopped using my immediate house area as a bathroom. Today I happened to have this issue and called PHPD, but I had a very negative experience. The operator kept asking me what I wanted to do, since the person who defecated was no longer in the area. I explained to her 3 or 4 times how this was handled before, so, it seems like this person shouldn't be in this position to address this kind of issues. Her very unprofessional attitude was terrible. I just had to hang up since my call didn't go anywhere. Good luck trying to contact the right person here.

Police/sheriff's have in some people's eyes, a bad reputation. I believe this is due to the fact…read morethat just as every race is stereotyped for this and that, the police unfortunately had a bad egg every now and then and then led to believe that they are all the same. Also, if you believe the police department is out to get you or have bad intentions, that may be because you possibly are doing something illegal and probably shouldn't be doing in the first place. From my experience on the other hand, is that these men and women put their life on the line every single day and risk taking the chance of possibly not being able to go home to their family at the end of their shift. They have a job to do and as difficult as it may be or even if they may not completely agree with whatever the outcome may be of a situation, ultimately, they are just doing their job. They serve and protect and every single officer that I personally know or have even come into contact with has been more than helpful and have always been polite and respectful. So please, before you think or even may say anything negative about the police department or a single officer as an individual remember, they are human too, have a family and just simply doing their job as we do day in and day out. I encourage everyone that next time they see an officer to give your gratitude and thanks because the people who say bad or negative things about them are the same exact people who call them when they need help and guess what?.... they are still there and come to serve and protect. So on my behalf, thank you to our local law enforcement and first responders for everything that you do for our community and a city as a whole. God bless

Deputies in this location are dishonest and liars. I was…read moreinvolved in an accident at which I was definitely not at fault. Three or four deputies came to the accident site and started drawing lines marking my vehicles location as well as the other drivers cars location. Then they proceed by taking pictures and interviewing witnesses. While all this was happening, a female deputies was chatting with the other party's father and I could hear them laughing. I'm not sure what kind of relationship they had but she wrote the report to their favor. When I called to see if the report was ready, I was told that I had to call back because the report was not done. I had hired an attorney and much to my surprise, we found out that The other party had the report when I called to see if the report was ready. Finally, after getting the report I was shocked to read that since there were no pictures and no witnesses, they were not able to determine who was at fault. These deputies are good in writing tickets to get promoted. They don't deserve the money that they get paid by our tax dollars.

1. Use of Force Concerns: Some community members have raised…read moreconcerns about the SBPD's use of force in certain incidents. Critiques often focus on whether the department's training and accountability systems adequately prevent excessive force, especially in encounters with vulnerable populations such as the homeless or mentally ill. 2. Transparency and Accountability: There have been complaints that the department isn't always fully transparent with the public regarding internal investigations or disciplinary actions. This can create a perception that officers aren't held accountable for misconduct. 3. Relations with Marginalized Communities: Like many law enforcement agencies, SBPD has faced criticism for its interactions with marginalized groups. Issues cited include racial profiling, biased policing, or failure to engage meaningfully with the community in building trust. 4. Resource Allocation: Some critics argue that the SBPD prioritizes certain types of enforcement (like traffic citations or minor offenses) over community support, mental health intervention, and crime prevention programs. This can leave systemic problems unaddressed. 5. Staffing and Training Challenges: Santa Barbara is a tourist-heavy area with seasonal population spikes. Critics say that the department sometimes struggles with staffing and training to handle peak demands safely and fairly, leading to lapses in service or inconsistent enforcement. This isn't an attack on every officer or the whole department--many officers work hard and ethically--but it highlights structural and community concerns that have been raised over time.
