IN ACADEMY PORN, PRANK

cused the female trooper of downplaying the Taser incident, which he called a serious violation of department policy.

He declined to confirm or discuss the exact discipline each received, but said two other troopers involved in the Taser incident faced “administrative action.”

Procopio also defended the academy as a whole, saying any issues raised in the complaint stem from the “behavior of, and interaction, between the two involved Troopers,” both of whom no longer work at the central Massachusetts facility.

“There are no systemic problems at the State Police Academy,” he said. “Any suggestion of a wider problem at the Academy is disingenuous and blatantly inaccurate.”

The academy trains recruits to become state troopers — and 174 are set to graduate today in Worcester.

It also holds trainings for municipal police and special state police officer classes, as well as in-service training, professional development classes and firearms requalifications for troopers.

Dana Pullman — president of the State Police Association of Massachusetts, which represents the rank and file — said through a spokesman that the union supports the female trooper’s complaint.

“I am confident (the female trooper) will be vindicated,” her attorney, Lenny Kesten, told the Herald, adding that the so-called Taser prank “was a joke. Everyone laughed at the time.”

The male trooper’s attorney declined to comment on the allegations, and the male trooper did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
