Feds charge former MBTA police officer for alleged false reports to cover up assault
Federal prosecutors indicted Finnerty on two counts of false reports, with one including aiding and abetting. Each count carries a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, up to three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $250,000.
“Our office holds the men and women who wear police uniforms and serve our communities in the highest regard. Instances of police misconduct are rare, but they need to be investigated and prosecuted when they do happen, especially when supervisors are involved as alleged here,” said Acting U.S . Attorney for Massachusetts Joshua Levy.
