Lawyer: Police misconduct probes may be constrained if Worcester loses public records lawsuit against the T&G Brad Petrishen, Telegram & Gazette
WORCESTER - If cities and towns are not allowed to withhold from the public the internal affairs records of officers being sued, they might not thoroughly investigate complaints of police wrongdoing, Worcester’s head litigator suggested in court Monday.
Assistant city solicitor and head litigator Wendy L. Quinn made the remark during her closing argument in the trial being conducted in Worcester Superior Court between the city and Telegram & Gazette over access to police misconduct records.
The central issue in the case is whether the city is allowed to withhold from the public the internal affairs records of police officers who are facing civil lawsuits.
