Lt Arnold was amazingly patient and understanding. I appreciate not all officers have life experience knowledge to know everything and there is a constant learning curve. To know the rules of SACRAMENTO DMV Is different from Local DMV there is a " Time Lapse" issue that Unfortunately Lt Martinez was naive too. I have always supported Law ENFORCEMENT as I have 5 Uncles/ Aunt, & cousins serving LAPD. You place your lives on the line EVERYDAY without the guarantee of returning home. I'm sorry for Blasting you Lt Martinez, as perhaps you too were having a bad day. Thank you for all you do in Keeping Palmdale Safe. read more

Palmdale Sheriffs Station - Valid registration - Police Departments Near Me - Palmdale, California

See all

There dispatch is absolutely horrible. There is a white lady there that takes a lot of the calls and every time I've had to call 911 and get her, she is condescending, she prolongs the calls, she clearly doesn't care to help. You will NOT get the help you need going through this department and especially their dispatch. They are absolutely horrible. I can only pray that these people that think everything is a joke and don't take their jobs seriously, are subjected to the same vial things in life that we are. Your family's as well. Just horrible. Protect and serve no one but yourselves. God be your judge!!!!!! read more

I understand the overwhelming calls and visit the sheriffs that to deal. But, we need quicker action and if that means hiring more sheriffs, do it. I appreciate the hard work you all do. Keep the community safe. Thank you for your service! read more

OFFICER. Chavez is a great officer. He was very understanding, helpful, and made the whole ordeal alot less stressful He took yhe time to make sure I was informed of what to expect and to do to prevent further damage. He is a true asset to the Dept. Thank you read more

Take a pretty long time to send a deputy. Literally chose to put it on a stop watch to track how long can they respond. Thankfully I was able to verbally de-escalate incidents myself. read more

They make a strong effort to make our communities safe. They are responsive and professional.

Called the station to get information about a car accident I was in time person who answered was completely rude kept trying to talk over me as I was trying to explain what I needed and ask my questions and spoke in a condescending tone. read more

Never responded to my call, I called twice, they even said they were making the call a priority because my child and I were alone. There was a man who was trespassing on the property I live at he was literally sitting right outaide my apartment screaming profanities. I don't know if they thought it was prank because my living situation is unconventional, but no one ever showed up, I thought they would have at least called me if the deputy ever decided to show up, but silence. read more

There's no one ever at the front desk they make u wait for hours until someone comes out to speak with u. And then when they do come out they have a very bad attitude. I'm a tax paying citizen and to be treated with no respect is appalling. read more

Palmdale Sheriffs Station - Empty front desk with a lobby full of ppl. - Police Departments Near Me - Palmdale, California

This post is dedicated to Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick and to law enforcement who risk and lose their lives for us every day.   Also, this post is made with gratitude to the Officer who responded to my family's worried calls and came to my front door to make sure I was okay when my phone was stolen. I came to his police station to report my stolen purse and credit cards, and to deliver my medical records. I wanted them to know, that If I need help in a crisis, chances are I will be incomprehensible.   Further, I came to this station to accept responsibility for misunderstandings. I once collected a little mail for a homeless friend with good intentions. My "good intentions" to help my friend led to confusion I didn't anticipate. When my homeless friend, who was hallucinating, used this mail to have me arrested.  Took me a while to figure out that I started the fire with good intentions investing in the wrong worthy cause, let it be me who tries to put it out.   In honor of doing the right thing for my community I am now investing in a medical alert bracelet so first responders can understand me if I need help.  And I am going to carry a few packs of oatmeal with me at all times because my food allergies can be life threatening in extreme situations. I invested in rainbow-colored, three-ply masks for my neighbors and invitations for a stay-at-home weekend event. I moved my recording studio to east Palmdale, a diverse community, to write and record music representing where I am from.   Not long after I arrived, my song landed in another Kevin Smith movie. The latest in the Chasing Amy, Clerks, Silent Bob line; the Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. I postponed watching this movie until I could invite my neighborhood to watch it with me.  This police station included.     I learned a valuable life lesson thanks to those who try to help crazy criminals like me. Not all criminals are bad people. Not all cops are good people but most of them are. Most people are good; I am trying to be a better one. In honor of the people who rescue kidnapped children, and treat us with empathy dignity and respect. It's been a community effort to keep me alive! Let's fight Covid together. :-)   I'll add a link to this review once I've delivered invites and masks to my neighbors. read more

and the cops wonder why they have such a bad reputation... somebody pulls up in front of my house starts fighting in front of my house as they're driving away they throw a dog out of their car. I called the cops and they told me that it's not their responsibility to respond but I need to call animal control.... They're unwilling to help out the community. Is the community dislikes, the most about them the only time they willing to help the community is when there's a camera filming so that way it can be published for the world to see. read more

The desk cops are sassy and guests are met with a heavy sigh and passive aggressive attitude. The professional run around is incredibly aggravating. read more

Bunch of incompetent officers. Part of the reason why the police have such a bad reputation. Can't solve any violence around them.

The front desk staff/officer is incompetent. I don't say that lightly as I am a retired LEO myself & defend the Blue to the core, but this required a review. First off, I went to file a 653m PC report (annoying/harassing electronic communication) with all supporting documents and a clearly written narrative to help the reporting officer do their job. All criminal elements were present hands down. I know, I have written, investigated, and helped prosecute hundreds of these in a 20+ yr career. In spite of this, the first words out of the mouth of the "Officer" at the desk were "I'm not sure exactly what kind of report that is." Really, one of the most basic and prevalent misdemeanors in LE!? I then knew this was going down hill. OK, took a breath, and explained it to Officer P. like I was his FTO. His response was, "we don't really take those types of reports here...any chance you can just tell the person to stop harassing you? Or, just get a restraining order?" Yoohoo, Officer P., I wouldn't be here if I didn't already advise the PCO (it's in the narrative I gave you...read it) and do you think establishing a statutory crime via a police report is going to improve or diminish my chances of getting a permanent RO if the situation escalates? It's already a borderline 422 PC (criminal threats). Or do you only take 187 PC reports because all the red flags were ignored by LE? If there is a violation based on the submitted documents & statement, take the frigan report!!! If not, provide a reasonable explanation beyond NOT KNOWING OR SAYING YOU DON'T TAKE THOSE TYPES OF REPORTS. Officer P. offered me the opportunity to sit around for 3 hours and wait on a deputy to respond to the station to further evaluate my matter if I chose. Really!? THIS IS WHAT IS WRONG WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT & SUPPORT STAFF. Deferring, redirecting, and basically spending more time kissing off reports than just knocking them out. Imagine, if they are doing this to a retired LEO with extensive patrol and investigative experience, what are they doing to the general public who cannot make a case to them or hold them accountable? This is a LEADERSHIP issue...do better. I went the next day to the SCV Sheriff's Station where they reviewed my documentation and statement and provided me with a case # in under 15 minutes. Granted, the desk deputy also began to discredit the merits of the report until I redirected him to better understand what was at hand. No problem with the reporting deputy. It simply appears to be a LASD culture thing to avoid taking reports or creating fictitious thresholds for straight-up statutory violations. Do better...damn embarrassing. read more

I love that my tax paying dollars are going to good use. My wife got in an accident because some liberal blew a red light. She had to wait over an hour for someone to show up. Ima huge supporter of police but this Palmdale station takes forever to do anything. When I have had to call the cops in Lancaster, they are there writhing 5-10 minutes. Not Palmdale. Too busy....also Had my home alarm go off and I wasn't home. My alarm company contacted me and asked if everything was ok and if they need to alert the sheriffs department. I told them I was at work, which is an hour away from my home, so I said yes. Over an hour passed and still no one showed up. By this time my wife pulled onto our street and checked things out. Thank god it ended up being nothing, just cats setting my alarm off...but over an hour!? And still didn't show up. My wife ended up calling the sheriffs and telling them forget it. But god forbid there was an intruder in the house. He would have had more than enough time to grab everything inside. I have a ton of respect for police...but over an hour for a possible intruder i read more

they honestly do not care , horrible horrible customer service, we called the cops at 9 and waited atleast 20 min and nobody showed up to the scene , came to the station at 9:30 waited till 10 30 to finally get "helped" just be be told we have to make a new report and we can't get helped , we try to make a new report and nothing , do not recommend at all read more

If you are scared for your life while being chased in a car going over 100 do not call and let hernandez help you immediately ask for a name and for someone else if you get her. i was being followed from 47th east all the way to the sheriff station and i was telling her i was scared for my life and to please have someone outside waiting because i didn't know if this man had a gun and she kept giving me additude telling me i should not leave the parking lot when this man had me BARRICADED IN THE PARKINGLOT ALMOST NOT ABLE TO GET OUT and no one was still out there the second time i showed up into the parking lot or even after that but if i would have been shot and she didn't so anything like she had done she would feel really bad please give these people the correct training to at least help calm people down and to help them stay safe LIKE THEY ARE THERE FOR i've been taught my entire life if you are being followed call the cops and show up at the station i did that and nothing i would have felt more safe GOING HOME AND HAVING MY FATHER BROTHER AND BOYFRIEND PROTECTING ME and going 100 down palmdale blvd running lights to not get hit or shot AND NOT A SINGLE COP FROM 47th east to sierra hwy read more

I just have to say that these guys are absolutely phenomenal. Not only are the deputies great at the station handling phone calls, such as mine but their follow thru was amazing with the situation we were dealing with. They addressed our concerns and made us feel safer. Thank you again! read more

They do the best they can with their budget. All the Deputies, Watch Commander and reception personnel have always been polite

My cousin had a family matter today and we needed a police escort to get her things. The Palmdale sheriffs got there ( a little later then we had hoped for) but we learned they had another bigger Emergency. I was grateful and impressed with how they resolved the issue and helping my cousin retrieve her items quickly from her previous residence. Thank you Palmdale Sheriffs for all you do! stay safe! read more

never anybody to help you file a police report especially on weekends they only prioritize the "emergencies" they feel that are most important it's sad because people are really here seeking help and they just practically brush it off, someone needs to do something about this is honestly ridiculous read more

The Palmdale Sheriff Station are amazing!! These guys are very professional and always have that smile in their face so it doesn't intimidate you. Wait, are you suppose to intimidate us?!!..lol.. but seriously, I loved li I here in Palmdale because I know I have a sheriff department who cares about the community and always looking up on us. You don't believe me?! Why don't you join the breakfast with the sheriff?! Or meet a few of them and say hi. read more

Sgt. Hernandez is the best! She stayed with me through my husbands passing, and was sooo compassionate! I got a hug, very heartwarming since the covid thing! Thank you so much for her! read more

Officer Little was exceptional when it came to helping me out. The amount of time she took to speak with me about my issues was more than any other officer in any other station I've ever come across. She sought out answers if she didn't know and she genuinely heard me. With all the information I was given I'm a lot more confident with what I need to do. Thank you Officer Little for going above and beyond for myself and my children today! read more

The entire department seem kinda hit n miss. Sometime you might get someone who actually cares about doing the job or protecting the city, a lot of times not so much. I am very disappointed in the general lack of enforcement of just about every law and city ordinance. Illegal fireworks run rampant, despite being reported. Noise disturbances constantly all over the city, despite being reported. Illegally parked and abandoned vehicles by the dozens, despite being reported. Traffic violations straight out of a bad movie, despite being right next to a squad car. Ridiculously loud and blatantly illegal exhaust on cars everywhere. It's as though they wait until everything escalates to the point of gunfire and murder so they can put on the cape and pump their chest out. It's really quite sad, pathetic really. Palmdale has the potential to be a great place to live, but it can't live up to that potential if we let everyone just do whatever. We have so many laws and regulations and ordinances, and the majority of them never get enforced. That is, unless that particular enforcement can be used as leverage to another agenda (from the horse's mouth). I used to have such respect and appreciation for our Sheriff's Department. Lately that has turned to disappointment and embarrassment. read more

80% of sheriff's are the salt of the earth, if you can't get along with one you can ask for another . Have respect.

These folks don't get the credit they deserve . They work hard, they put up with me (illegal fireworks in an unsafe area) calling in, and keep trying to help me find the ppl who are doing unsafe or scary things. Bless y'all! read more

It's just a regular sheriff station. Nothing special about the building. Was looking for an address and used the phone on the wall (front desk) was empty. No help, but then a deputy was walking by in the hallway and I asked her for help. She was awesome!! Totally went out of her way to help me find a plot of land I purchased out there. Kudos to her!! read more

They were very gentle when they handcuffed me, and their patrol vehicles are incredibly roomy. Overall, very professional. Will get arrested by them again, for sure. read more

Thank you for keeping our community safe. I couldn't imagine do on by what you do on a daily basis. God bless every one of you.

Had some idiot attempt to break into our truck at the Lancaster Movies. Palmdale sheriff station came out to take the report. The deputy that came out was very nice, friendly and quick. Thank you deputy Friedman for your help. We truly appreciate the help. read more

Sad to say we moved here to palmdale 2months ago and around 3 a.m this morning I noticed a car sitting in front of our elderly bed ritten neighbors home with a white male inside. We called the police to do a well fare check because she has no lights on and we where told after the 3rd call over an hour and a half later they had no available officers. Where we came from the community was looked after by the police especially the elderly. God bless America. At least I have a camera system read more

I appreciate the Deputies I've come to know. It's a good station, Good people and concerned for the community. They have a sense of responsibility for the community and that's important in that line of work. Thanks Guys! read more

I have got to say Officer Hainey kept me very positive and good vibes and laughs the whole time...never going back but at least I had an officer that I really truly felt safe and comfortable with! Best officer award! read more

Outstanding service. Quick response time and very professional. Thank you guys for the confidence in law enforcement

The deputies that I have been fortunate enough to interact with are very cool. Much cooler than most of the LAPD that I have encountered. Many thanks to a station that seems to care about being good with its people. read more

You know it's bad when you've heard domestic violence and the Palmdale police have "rolled their eyes" "laughed" and walked away. Unless an ambulance has been called because of broken bones or there is an ample amount of blood, these guys do absolutely nothing and have been known to nearly blame the victim and tell them what they did was wrong. Almost a slap in the face with "you deserved it". Thinking about living here? Prepare yourself for lazy dirty cops. read more

I hate to say it but I don't want trust these people at all. I've been pulled over plenty of time for no reason but 90% of the time they pull their guns out on me. I think I have PTSD due to them I freak out every single time I see a cop. Imagine getting pulled over for no reason on your way to work at 19 years old, and they have guns drawn. They don't find anything on you and your not pulled over for any traffic violations. And you asked why you were stopped and they say "don't make me find something in there, I suggest you Get going". Once I went to complain about a odd guy stalking my wife and they don't do anything, but you say, if he come by again and I shoot him, then what? They have no answer, they actually said "well, these cameras are always rolling, so we have proof". I totally lost faith when I got pulled over again for no reason, and they said I "look bad". While in the back of the cop car and his partner destroying my car, I had a conversation with the guy running my license, and realized most of them are highly uneducated. Once he realized we both were collage grads, and have jobs making more then them, they let us go. The told me if i was in a different city I could have been shot because my shirt match my car. After being detained for 30 mins they let us go. 2 hrs after, I call to make a complaint. The watch commander was a total idiot and seem to side with his guys and say i have no proof. Then I ask ti show GPS locations for the times and he hands up. Called back and he said he'll get back to me, which he never did. I can go on and on about the many times I've been pulled over. Like the time I was "pulled over" as soon as I got in my car in front of my house. Some short chubby guy came up with his gun drawn. I was scared shirtless of him, I seen him beat a driver on ave r a few years ago. Then blocked off the while street to get their story together. Me and my mother seen the whole thing, but when they came to the door, my mother was in fear and said she didn't want to be involved, and they said "so you didn't see anything... right".we seen him beat the hell out of a taxi driver, and block off the street for a hr. They didn't know we could hear read more
