We now know who's going to investigate the death of a state police recruit at their training facility a new Braintree. Wbz's Brook McCarthy as the tails.
Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Campbells's attorney David Meyer, will lead an independent investigation into the death of Enrique Delgado Garcia. He is the state police recruit who died after suffering injuries during a boxing training exercise earlier this month. That exercise was designed to teach defense tactics, but Delgardo Garcia
suffered missing teeth, a damaged skull, and fractured neck. The Wooster County DA's office said it could not conduct the investigation because Delgardo Garcia worked for them, so Campbell made the appointment. Before becoming an attorney, Meyer was the chief of homicide in the Suffolk County DA's office. In a statement, Campbell says, mister Meyer has deep experience in death investigations and will ensure independence and integrity in this matter. Brooke McCarthy WBZ Buston's News radio.
