Written by In January 1992, Officer Marchesseault entered a gymnasium with his weapon drawn, ordering seven young men playing basketball to the floor. This action was deemed inappropriate, leading to his termination. However, an arbitration panel later found the termination excessive, ordering his reinstatement with conditions including retraining and a fitness for duty evaluation. The town contested this reinstatement, citing public safety concerns, and the court ultimately vacated the arbitration award, upholding the termination.
