STATEMENT FROM CHIEF KENNETH GREEN
FORMER TRANSIT POLICE OFFICER SHAWN McCARTHY FOUND GUILTY OF RAPE.
March 15, 2024
First and foremost, we must acknowledge the survivors in this horrific incident. We are in total admiration at the courage and bravery they displayed throughout this ordeal. We must also acknowledge Assistant District Attorney Ian Polumbaum whose experience, skills and abilities were brought to bear on behalf of the survivors and citizens of the Commonwealth to hold Shawn McCarthy accountable for his abhorrent, predatory and vile conduct. The jurors rendered a thoughtful and just verdict.
We are committed to restoring the faith and trust of those we are sworn to serve and protect.
