We’ve learned he was recently working as a special officer in two neighboring communities until these allegations surfaced. No charges have been filed at this time, so NBC10 Boston is not naming the officer.

The officer’s lawyer tells NBC10 Boston the officer is a “fine, upstanding member of the community and has no statement to make at this time.”

Rowley Police have no comment due to the ongoing investigation by the Essex County District Attorney’s office.
