Officer Boudreault, a thirteen-year veteran of the Department, relied on his years of training and experience when he responded with the amount of force that this unfortunate situation called for,” said Pawtucket Police Chief Paul King.
The state police looked at materials and documentation relating to the investigation including witness statements and videos. Based on the information, the state police and Pawtucket Police Department said they contacted over two dozen individuals regarding the incident, and said that all the evidence documented and substantiated that officer Boudreault was assaulted prior to what was captured on video.
"This investigation was conducted by Rhode Island State Police detectives assigned to our Professional Standards Unit in conjunction with the Pawtucket Police Department. After a thorough investigation, which included dozens of interviews and review of video surveillance, we have concluded that based on the circumstances presented to Officer Boudreault at the time of the incident, his reaction and actions were in compliance with state law and he was also acting within his department’s policies and procedures," said RI State Police Colonel Steven O'Donnell.
Mayor Donald Grebien thanked the police for their work.
"I want to thank Colonel O’Donnell of the Rhode Island State Police for their assistance in conducting this very thorough investigation with Pawtucket Police Department’s Internal Affairs team. I also want to thank the Tolman High School students, faculty and staff, the Superintendent, the Institute for the Study and Practice of Nonviolence and the Pawtucket community as a whole, who patiently allowed for this investigation to be conducted and allowed for the facts and evidence of this case to be made clear. Pawtucket as a community will now move forward to ensure that every young person in Pawtucket is able to learn in a safe school environment."
