It was the second time in less than a year that retired Portsmouth police officer Vincent McClean was found not guilty of assault charges that prosecutors had sought against him. A jury acquitted him the first case and this time the judge tossed the charges before the case even went to the jury.
The FOP responded to a grand jury's decision to indict Vincent McClean a second time, accusing the Commonwealth's Attorney’s office of an "underlying vendetta."
