The Commission affirmed the decision of the City of Brockton to terminate a police officer for (1) neglecting his duties by leaving the scene of an active motor vehicle accident without completing an OUI investigation; and (2) abusing his authority by initiating a reckless motor vehicle pursuit of a fellow officer.
The Commission dismissed the Appellant’s bypass appeal as DOC had reasonable justification to bypass him based on his prior misconduct that resulted in his termination from employment at DOC five years ago.
