Trooper Michael Proctor , who has been suspended without pay since July, will face a trial board Wednesday after misconduct allegations came to light during the first Karen Read trial last summeris facing a board of his colleagues Wednesday regarding misconduct allegations he has faced for his behavior during the high-profile investigation.Proctor has been suspended without pay since July.
Suspended Massachusetts State Police Trooper Michael Proctor, the lead investigator in the Karen Read murder case who has admitted misconduct during the investigation, is due for an in-person hearing on the allegations against him. Here's what to expect. Calls for Proctor's resignation have grown louder leading up to Wednesday's hearing after Gov. Maura Healey said she was"disgusted" by his actions.
The hearing isn't public but the department's new commander said he may immediately impose permanent discipline if Proctor is found responsible for the misconduct he's accused of, and that outcome will have immediate implications on how Read's second trial unfolds, along with any pending investigations that Proctor is a part of, including the trial for Brian Walshe.
