DA Rollins seeks to reconsider domestic violence charge against Boston police officer one day after dropping it https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/06/09/metro/domestic-violence-charges-dismissed-against-boston-police-officer-just-hours-after-arrest/?et_rid=1745480152&s_campaign=metroheadlines:newsletter
Herrera-Brea’s arrest was announced by Boston police Tuesday night on the department’s website. It contained no details of the incident that led to him being charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and domestic assault and battery.
According to a recording of Tuesday’s court proceeding, Megrian told Judge Paul M. Treseler that his client was accused of knocking a relative into the pavement during an argument on Sunday. According to Megrian and court records, Herrera-Brea was arrested on a domestic violence charge in April 2020 and was placed on probation last fall. Since his April 2020 arrest, Herrera-Brea was on administrative duty inside the station and not permitted to carry a firearm, according to Boston police spokesman Sergeant Detective John Boyle.
Boyle referred questions about the status of the new case against Herrera-Brea to Rollins’s office.
