My standard is protecting my constituents and Worcester Police should be held to the same constitutional standard as everyone. The special prosecutor asked that I repent by issuing a direct apology, in exchange for dropping the charges with probation. I chose the truth. I have dedicated my life to building community and defending people’s rights. …
