At sentencing Judge Mendoza noted Mendez, a tribal police officer at the time the crime was committed, abused the trust not only of his victim, but of the community as well in committing the crime. Judge Mendoza also noted he had reviewed all information provided by Mendez and at no point had he expressed any empathy toward the victim of his crime. Judge Mendoza told Mendez he hoped he had heard the victim when she told the Court Mendez’s crime would haunt her for the rest of her life.
