A Worcester police officer accused of receiving reimbursement for off-duty assignments that he did not work and a former Fitchburg State University officer were among 15 Massachusetts officers whose certifications were suspended by a new state commission. Worcester Officer Colby Turner and Ernest Fontainte, a former Fitchburg State University officer, were among the law enforcement officers targeted by the Massachusetts Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission. The commission, which announced its rulings Tuesday, was established as part of the state's 2020 criminal justice reform law.
