The absence of murders for more than a decade is celebrated in Águas de São Pedro. Since its foundation, the municipality had recorded only one murder case, a double homicide on 17 August 1994, when Fátima Rinaldi Dante, 40 years old, and her granddaughter, Maria Virgínia Dante, 1year old, were shot dead. The case was never solved.
The city has a third-class police station, and is patrolled by the 2nd group of the 3rd company of the 10th battalion of the Military Police of São Paulo State and the Municipal Civil Guard.
