School Resource Officer

A Fall River teacher fired in late November after an investigation found he engaged in "inappropriate communications" with someone thought to be a student is now being charged with a crime.

New Bedford Police Officer Chris Cotter says the relationship between the cops and the kids locally remains mostly positive.

If children fear the police, it is because they have been taught to fear them.

The School Resource Officers involved an investigation into excessive use of force at a Fall River school have been cleared of any wrongdoing.

A video appears to show a school resource officer punching a student three times during a struggle.

Dartmouth High School has a new School Resource Officer.
