Officer Peter Butcher – Roosevelt Police Department

In April 2018, Officer Peter Butcher, while on restricted duty due to prior disciplinary actions, improperly initiated an investigation into a teen sexting ring at Union High School. His involvement led to significant mishandling of the case, including delays and failure to collect critical evidence. An independent review criticized the Roosevelt Police Department for allowing Butcher to engage in investigative functions despite his restricted status, highlighting systemic issues within the department.
