A lawyer for Sgt. Sean Murphy, the Massachusetts State Police photographer who released images of the alleged Boston Marathon bomber’s arrest to Boston Magazine last week, said his client was placed on restricted duty Tuesday, according to the Boston Herald.
A hearing had been scheduled Tuesday at Massachusetts State Police headquarters to determine Murphy’s employment status moving forward. While Murphy keeps his job pending the outcome of an investigation, his lawyer Leonard Kesten told the Herald that state police management will make the next move.
