Sort of like the execution of #JustonRoot! Missing videos, quick clean up “investigation”, same characters at Norfolk DA’s office, Fanning was lead on Root case! Police investigating themselves is not transparency & will never get us to accountability!

A source has told me that Trooper Stephen Smith was suspended without pay after multiple women accused him of being creepy during traffic stops. There were no allegations of physical sexual abuse as I understand it. Many women reported feeling uncomfortable during their interactions with Trooper Smith.
What should concern everyone is that he was placed on restricted duty in May and suspended without pay in July…but they’ll take “appropriate action” when the probe concludes? Is there another appropriate action to take other than termination for abuse of power over women civilians?🤔

The Republican nominee for governor suggested, without documented evidence, that the State Police Association of Massachusetts endorsed his opponent in exchange for a contract. Gov. Maura Healey and the union have strongly denied Mike Minogue's claims. on.nbcboston.com/70kchic

John Fanning and Yuri Bukhenik knew the Farwells for much longer than Sandra Birchmore was alive. They grew up together, in the same town, same schools, same Police Dept; yet we are being told there is no evidence of friendliness. Matthew Farwell is charged with murdering Sandra Birchmore. John Fanning called her death a suicide and never treated someone he grew up with as a suspect. CPAC, which had at least two detectives that had known the killer for nearly their entire lives, was tasked with the investigation into how Sandra died. They never recorded an interview with Matt. They never sought a warrant for his DNA or phone data. They withheld information from the ME. They ignored pleas from family and LE. They waited till Farwell’s sperm deteriorated before asking for SA swabs. They waited till her body was washed before they asked for fingernail swabs. They offered to keep Billy’s name out of it. They stand by their investigation to this day. Matt’s not gonna catch any shit. He’s a cop too.
Sounds like they were pretty friendly to me. How about you?

Fanning in fact did NOT keep his name out of the report. 🤣
Replying to @GrantSmithEllis
"You said the meeting with Fanning and Dunne was in Coob's Corner."
"Yes."
"What did Fanning tell you about keeping your name out of the report?"
"He told me he would try to keep it out of the report?"
"And you were asked about minimizing what you said, did you write the MSP report of that interview?"
"I did not."

WHY SHOULD TAXPAYERS PAY A POLICE OFFICER TO HAVE SEX ON THE CLOCK, THEN POTENTIALLY PAY AGAIN TO INVESTIGATE AND DISCIPLINE THAT SAME OFFICER?!
In Massachusetts:
🚩 Time theft - If an officer is having sex instead of performing assigned duties while claiming paid work hours, that may constitute time theft.
🚩 Payroll fraud - If the officer knowingly falsifies timesheets, duty logs, or overtime records to COLLECT PAY FOR WORK NOT PERFORMED, that could support criminal fraud or larceny charges.
🚩 Misuse of public funds - Taxpayer money is funding the officer's salary during that time.
🚩 Dereliction of duty - Abandoning responsibilities for sexual activity may violate departmental policies AND warrant discipline.
🚩 Public safety-
If the officer is unavailable to respond to emergencies, the misconduct becomes even more serious.
October 26, 2026 William Farwell testified under immunity that he engaged in sexual contact with Sandra Birchmore while on duty as a Stoughton police officer.
And the federal government explicitly identified a potential wire fraud scheme involving Matthew Farwell.
#FarwellFRAUD
HOW MUCH TAXPAYER MONEY WAS PAID FOR HOURS THEY WERE NOT ACTUALLY PERFORMING THEIR DUTIES? AND WILL ANYONE DEMAND THAT MONEY BACK?
The public ABSOLUTELY deserves an accounting of every dollar.

The division should NOT be like this, the amount of work needed to repair the faith and trust is massive
𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐠𝐮𝐞’s allegation that the State Police Association of Massachusetts exchanged its endorsement for a contract is categorically false. Accusing our members of corruption without evidence is reckless, and we will not allow their integrity or the contract they earned to be smeared for political gain.
Our contract was negotiated by the Association’s Bargaining Team and the Commonwealth through a process that included mediation, fact finding and arbitration. A mutual agreement followed the release of an independent fact finder’s report, which is publicly available. The agreement provides raises totaling 11% over three years, consistent with what other state unions received. Mr. Minogue’s claim of 18% is wrong.
Our members earned this contract through their service and sacrifice. They find missing children, investigate homicides, respond to dangerous emergencies and put their lives on the line to protect people they have never met. Their compensation should not become a political weapon for a candidate seeking to attack the governor.
We proudly stand by our endorsement of @MassGovernor @maura_healey, alongside the @BostonPatrolmen and @MassCOPUnion. That endorsement reflects her demonstrated commitment to law enforcement and the firsthand experience of our union leadership. Our support is earned through actions and a working relationship built on respect.
Mr. Minogue is free to disagree with our endorsement. 𝐇𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬.

Response to my records request from Brockton Police and my reply. They don’t want the public to know anything
I’m prepared to file an appeal with the Massachusetts Supervisor of Records. The Secretary of the Commonwealth confirms that appeals can challenge an inadequate response
Can’t say it enough, follow @blankspaceerin for news on local PD and MSP
I submitted a records request to the MSP & was told to use an online portal. I did. I submitted the same request to the Brockton PD.
Let’s see what happens. By law they each have 10 days to respond.

So Pickard didn’t know he was being recorded, that’s a crime in MA…Sandra doesn’t strike me as a PI, so who set up a camera in her new (?) apt.or old? Also, McPhee says Fanning was going to plead the 5th. Interesting.

Billy Farwell leaves Boston federal court after his brief testimony given under a federal immunity deal to avoid charges of having sex with Sandra Birchmore while on duty. His twin brother Matt glanced up and then stared straight ahead as his brother described his own affair with Sandra Birchmore beginning in 2018. He testified that he did not know about Sandra‘s relationship with his twin at the time.

BREAKING:
Here's incident report on the latest State Police OUI.
drive.google.com/file/d/1K_I…
Happened Oct. 8 -- 18 days ago. MSP didn't breathe a word until I got the report today. They still haven't issued an official statement even after I informed them 2 hours ago that I had the report.
Another cover-up!
Lennon is still listed as "CERTIFIED" by MA POST Commission. Apparently nobody at GHQ thought it was a problem.
Lennon may be a mutli-generational trooper, you know, like Scott Quigley, whose MV homicide in Woburn (while recording a .114 BAC) was totally covered up from Dec 2023 until Jan 2026. He got a promotion after killing the disabled man after drinking all afternoon.
How is that possible that a cop accused of OUI is still considered a certified law officer. What duties is he performing? He refused the Breathalyzer so his license is gone.
How many more scandals before the State Police are either put into receivership or just plain disbanded?
Maura Healey is "proud" of the State Police, remember?
