Federal prosecutors and the FBI were notified about three former Vermont State Police troopers suspected of involvement in fake coronavirus vaccination cards.
"The accusations in this case involve an extraordinary level of misconduct — a criminal violation of the law — and I could not be more upset and disappointed," said Col. Matthew Birmingham, head of the State Police.
Two of the former cops, Shawn Sommers and Raymond Witkowski, who had both joined the police in July 2016, submitted their resignations on Aug. 10th after another trooper raised concerns with supervisors about their alleged conduct, according to State Police.
