Investigation Launched Following Death of Massachusetts State Police Recruit
The death of Enrique Delgado-Garcia, a recruit at the Massachusetts State Police Academy, has led to a suspension of full-contact boxing training at the academy. Following this tragic incident, Massachusetts Attorney General has appointed independent attorney David Meier to lead the investigation into the circumstances surrounding Delgado-Garcia's death. The situation has raised concerns about the academy's training culture, with calls for a federal investigation by the ACLU and demands from Central Massachusetts senators for a special investigator to examine the matter further. As preparations for Delgado-Garcia's funeral take place, the new Massachusetts State Police Colonel has also indicated a review of training programs in light of this incident.
