A federal grand jury on Thursday indicted embattled Chicopee Public Schools Superintendent Lynn Clark, who was suspended from her job earlier this month following her arrest on a charge of lying to investigators about threatening texts she allegedly sent to a local police officer, authorities said.

The office of US Attorney Rachael Rollins said in a statement that the grand jury handed up indictments charging Clark, 51, with two counts of making false statements to FBI agents investigating the threats. Clark will appear in federal court in Springfield on April 27.

She’s currently free on bond. Clark’s lawyer, Jared Olanoff, told reporters during a recent briefing that his client “denies the allegations.”  https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/04/21/metro/suspended-chicopee-schools-boss-indicted-lying-about-sending-threats-police-chief-candidate/
