Maine police union group to start legal defense fund for officers

Maine police union group to start legal defense fund for officers It s partly in response to the killing of George Floyd in May at the hands of Minneapolis police, as well as the widespread social uprisings and scrutiny of police conduct that followed. Share A statewide police association plans to start raising more than $100,000 a year to help defend Maine officers who may be charged with crimes or sued for conduct on duty, a response to high-profile shootings in other states that led to charges against police. Dubbed the Sentinel Program, the new legal protections provided by the Maine Association of Police started Oct. 1 for its nearly 1,000 member officers. To pay for the services, the group will increase weekly dues starting in January from $9 to $12, with $1 of the added cost going toward administration.
