News summary

Andrew Baseggio, a now-former Kissimmee police officer, has been indicted by a grand jury on multiple charges including felony battery, official misconduct, and witness tampering, stemming from a 2023 use of force incident. The charges arise from an April 22, 2023, event where Baseggio allegedly entered a residence without a warrant and applied excessive force, leading to serious injuries of the individual involved. Evidence suggests he also tampered with witness testimonies and submitted a falsified report to evade an internal investigation. Baseggio, who had been with the department since 2007, turned himself in to authorities and has been relieved of his duties. State Attorney Andrew Bain emphasized that the law applies equally to all, including law enforcement officers. The case reflects ongoing scrutiny of police conduct and accountability in use of force incidents.
