Officer Disciplinary Records
Law Enforcement Officer Disciplinary Records are current as of March 17, 2025.
The disciplinary records database is updated regularly. Officers who have resigned or retired in good standing are not included; data includes those who have resigned or retired to avoid discipline.
The reports contain law enforcement agency summaries of sustained allegations and discipline imposed on active police officers. In some instances, the discipline imposed is related to one or more allegations. The database also lists the officer’s name and law enforcement agency, and date and type of allegation. Certain CORI information has been redacted. The data does not reflect unfounded or non-sustained complaints.

Summary of Reporting Requirements for Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs):
LEAs must report credible misconduct complaints or incidents to POST within two business days of receipt of complaint. Reports due to POST include any incident that result in discipline, an internal affairs investigation, or any allegations of prohibited conduct per MGL Chapter 6E:
- Bias
- Excessive Use of Force
- Serious Bodily Injury or Death (including all officer-involved shootings)
- Unprofessional Conduct (policy or procedure violations, conformance to laws, conduct unbecoming, untruthfulness, prohibited conduct, incompetence or unfitness for duty). Unprofessional conduct is the only category with an exception for minor matters as outlined below.
Minor matters do not need to be reported as long as the agency has implemented an informal resolution process (i.e., verbal counseling or letters of counsel), which documentation must be provided to POST upon request. Minor matters include discourtesy, basic work rule violations, tardiness, inattention to detail, equipment or grooming violations, and similar infractions.
The guidance on complaints and incident reporting further defines basic work rule violations to exclude (i) interactions with the public, (ii) the handling of finances and (iii) ethics violations. Therefore, any incident, misconduct or complaint that include any of the above (i, ii, or iii) must be reported to POST.
