Amid more State Police controversy, Governor Baker and lawmakers are pointing fingers at each other
Governor Charlie Baker clashed with legislators on Tuesday over the best way to reform the Massachusetts State Police on the heels of revelations that dozens of troopers remain on the force despite past illegal conduct.

A spokeswoman for Baker called on legislators to hurry up and act on legislation he submitted nine months ago aimed at holding law enforcement more accountable. Lawmakers, meanwhile, argued that Baker already has the power to reform the state’s largest police force, which has been awash in controversy since an overtime abuse scandal surfaced more than two years ago.

The back-and-forth comes in response to a Globe report about troopers who have escaped termination despite crimes or serious misconduct, including one trooper who traveled and partied in Las Vegas with people tied to organized crime.
