FBI investigating use of police informants in Lowell, Mass.

The Boston Globe and the Lowell Sun report that there is a federal investigation into allegations that Lowell police officers knowingly relied on two confidential informants who planted evidence to frame innocent people.

Our firm filed lawsuits for three of men who were innocent victims of this police misconduct. Their lawsuits allege that for more than twenty years, the Lowell Police Department allowed police officers to use informants who were planting evidence. Our clients hope justice will prevail.
