An officer described by the FBI as "a serial debt fraudster" is set to plead guilty to wire fraud charges. That could make him the second Massachusetts cop to lose his policing certification.
To date, only one officer has been fully decertified by the commission, which was created by a 2020 policing reform law to give the state more supervision of police departments and their officers.
I guess the Massachusetts decertification program is better than nothing, but not by much, if in three years they’ve found just one cop in the whole state who shouldn’t be a cop.

I think it’s relevant that the recent one wasn’t putting innocents in jail, or using excessive force. Scam a landlord though, better watch out MF!
