(NewsNation) — Former Massachusetts Deputy Police Chief Robert C. Devine said in a June hearing that murder victim Sandra Birchmore consistently lied.
NewsNation obtained footage of a disciplinary hearing involving Devine, where the nature of his relationship with Birchmore was in question.
Birchmore’s family accused three Stoughton police officers of grooming and abusing her for years, which reportedly began when she was a young teen participating in the Stoughton Police Explorers Academy, which Devine led.
Devine claimed he never had sexual relations with Devine, nor communicated with her under the alias "Marty Riggs." The former police chief suggested it was Birchmore who was propositioning officers, not the other way around.
