Departmental Charges Filed Against Trooper R E Alexander
State police filed departmental charges against Cpl Richard E Alexander of the Bureau of Criminal Investigation to probe his role, if any, in the sale and installation of fire prevention equipment in Brattleboro. He remains suspended as Acting Public Safety Commissioner Glenn Davis and Lt Roger K Patrick announced. The case stems from a Dummerston fire that destroyed the Jelly Mill restaurant and gift shop, where equipment installed last summer was supplied by a firm in which Mrs Richard Alexander, the trooper's wife, is involved. The department cites rule violations, not criminal charges, and Alexander may resign to avoid formal proceedings.
