A Paterson police officer has been indicted on charges related to multiple acts of domestic violence, according to the Passaic County Prosecutor’s Office.

Alberto Sanabria, 38, of Paterson, was charged by a Passaic County Grand Jury in connection with incidents that allegedly took place in Paterson on December 23, 2023. Sanabria was indicted on one count of third-degree terroristic threats, one count of fourth-degree cyber harassment, and one count of fourth-degree stalking.

Sanabria has been with the Paterson police for more than seven years.

If convicted, Sanabria faces a potential prison sentence of three to five years for the third-degree terroristic threats charge, and up to 18 months for each of the fourth-degree charges of cyber harassment and stalking.

Sanabria, who was released on a summons complaint, is scheduled to appear before Judge Barbara Buono Stanton on August 19, 2024, for arraignment.
