[MA] Medford eased Police Officer Hudson out of his wife strangle charges & so have a cop that commits crimes and breaks rules
Medford
Police Officer Gregory Hudson, most recently given probation and
suspension for soliciting a prostitute, had previously been charged for
assault and battery after "allegedly" (at least) choking his wife. She
had bruises on her neck, yet his charges were "disposed" of after
probation and 40 hours off of work. They kept a cop who commits crimes

victims who saw there was no use turning to the court system for
protection. Obviously Medford still keeps criminals on the force because
again they are keeping Officer Hudson.
So what's new in Medford? Nothing noticeable.

that her husband choked her, was disposed of in Somerville District
Court after he served six months pretrial probation. For that arrest,
Hudson was suspended without pay for five tours of duty, Rumley said. A
tour refers to one day's shift, which typically runs about eight
