Over the past decade, the Nashua Police Department has faced several disciplinary actions and lawsuits involving individual officers. Specific statistics on the total number of disciplinary actions, types of violations, and their frequency are not publicly disclosed. However, notable cases include allegations of excessive force, insubordination, and procedural violations. Typical punishments have ranged from suspensions to inclusion on the Laurie List, which can significantly impact an officer’s career. Use-of-force incidents have led to both internal investigations and civil lawsuits, with varied outcomes. While there have been individual cases of misconduct, no department-wide corruption or scandals have been publicly reported in recent years.
