Former head of Mass. State Police union has convictions overturned
Briefly

Dana Pullman, former president of the State Police Association of Massachusetts, has had his convictions on three counts overturned by a federal appeals court. Initially sentenced to 30 months for various charges including racketeering and fraud, Pullman's case is now set for resentencing. The U.S. First Circuit Court of Appeals upheld some convictions while agreeing with the government that acquittals should have been entered for specific wire fraud counts. Co-defendant Anne M. Lynch saw similar reversals in her own convictions. Both are awaiting further legal proceedings on the remaining charges.
Judges noted, "Following the government's lead, we reverse these convictions," acknowledging the government's concession that acquittal should have been entered for specific counts.
