    For years, the Boston police kept a secret: the patrolmen's union president was an alleged child molester. Patrick Rose kept his badge and ascended to power in the police union. He went on to allegedly molest five other children.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        A Globe investigation found that the Boston Police Department in 1995 filed a criminal complaint against Rose for sexual assault on a 12-year-old. But he remained on patrol for another 21 years.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        The father who brought his daughter in last summer to report abuse by Rose was the boy allegedly abused at age 12 in the 1995 case. The department’s lack of administrative action back then may have left Rose free to offend again and again.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        Rose being tagged as a child sexual abuser was news to the public when he was arrested and charged last summer. But it wasn’t news to the Boston Police Department where Rose served for two decades as a patrolman.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        Boston police won’t say if any disciplinary action was taken against Rose. But it is clear the department did little or nothing to limit his contact with children and allowed him to salvage a career that led to the union presidency.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        Rose was allowed to have contact with vulnerable children even after the Boston Police Department learned of the alleged abuse in 1995, Police dispatched him in 1999 to help a 14-year-old girl who was calling to report she had been raped, records show.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        State child welfare investigators believed in 1995 that there was evidence that a child had been abused by Rose. This raised more questions about how the future union chief was able to keep his badge for another two decades.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/13/metro/state-child-welfare-agency-also-investigated-patrick-rose-decades-ago-it-too-believed-union-chief-had-abused-child/ …

        William J. Keefe, Rose's attorney, said he is fighting the charges. “My client maintains his innocence to all of the charges that have been brought against him and he maintains his innocence to what was alleged to have transpired back in 1995."https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        Acting Mayor Kim Janey vowed to release records from the 1995 Boston police internal investigation into Rose's behavior. The decision came amid intense pressure from mayoral candidates and members of the Massachusetts congressional delegation.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/12/metro/calls-mount-bostons-acting-mayor-release-1995-molestation-investigation-into-former-police-union-president/?p1=Article_Inline_Related_Box …

        The renewed allegations come as law enforcement and other institutions face new pressure to examine how they have handled cases of abuse. A comprehensive review, and reconsideration of past procedures is essential, said one psychology professor.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        Boston’s police department has a long history of protecting its own from accountability, particularly if the officer, like Rose, is white, said retired deputy superintendent Willie Bradley, who is Black.https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/04/10/metro/years-boston-police-kept-secret-union-president-was-an-alleged-child-molester/ …

        Rose did not speak when he appeared in court at his August arraignment. The once powerful union president had his wrists cuffed together and held his two hands over his face. http://bos.gl/alWDBwd pic.twitter.com/epJe0k4mAf
