Former Officer Gary Gamarra resigned in December 2020 after being accused of coercing two women into sexual acts. Internal affairs investigations in 2019 and 2020 revealed that Gamarra solicited sexual acts from the women, who felt pressured to comply. Initially denying the allegations, Gamarra later claimed the encounters were consensual. In 2021, the Police Officer Standards and Training Council permanently revoked his certification under the state’s police accountability law, barring him from serving as an officer in Connecticut.
