Council Decertifies Northfield
Northfield Police Chief Jeffrey Shaw was stripped of his law enforcement authority because of accusations that he falsified records.
The Vermont Criminal Justice Training Council voted Thursday afternoon to decertify Shaw.
According to Vermont Attorney General Bill Sorrell, for years, Chief Jeffrey Shaw committed a crime by signing training records that were false. In his final report that was sent to Shaw, and state and local officials, Sorrell says he questions Shaw's credibility and integrity as a police officer.
The Training Council also cited a finding by the AG that Shaw himself claimed to have completed training that he, in fact, did not.
Shaw will not face criminal charges, because Sorrell said it would be a tough case to prosecute. He does, however, have the option to appeal the decision within ten days.
This is the first time the Training Council has decertified a law enforcement officer since the Council was created.
