Boston Globe editorial regarding three of our cases: Did informants plant evidence? Police, DAs should say more

Check out this editorial in the Boston Globe: Did informants plant evidence? Police, DAs should say more. The editorial explains the recent allegations of civil rights violations in the Lowell Police Department. Our firm has filed three lawsuits against the City of Lowell and a Lowell police officer, alleging that the officer worked with police informants to plant evidence and frame innocent people for crimes they did not commit. In all three cases items were found in a car. In two of the cases drugs were inside the cover leading to the gas cap. The editorial notes a contradiction; the Middlesex and Essex DA’s offices determined the police did nothing wrong, yet the DAs dismissed or vacated 19 criminal cases as a result of their investigation into the allegations of police misconduct.
