If law enforcement officers cannot communicate in Spanish, it can lead to misunderstandings and potentially dangerous situations. For example, a Spanish-speaking individual may need help understanding the instructions given to them by an officer during an emergency or may be hesitant to report a crime due to language barriers. Most importantly, knowing Spanish will maintain the safety of the officer.
