Ombudsman

om·buds·man

ˈämbədzmən/

noun

  1. an official appointed to investigate individuals’ complaints against maladministration, especially that of public authorities.

 

I came across this word during my reading of the Boston Photograph. I never even heard of this word before but basically this is just a person that is appointed to investigate complaints like a police officer.
