Career Highlights and Challenges

Detective Role:: Hall-Brewster served as a detective in the Boston Police Department for a period of time.3 However, his career has been marked by some significant events and controversies.

Demotion:: In 2013, Hall-Brewster was demoted from detective to patrolman. This demotion came after a review of a September 2012 incident where he allegedly failed to move forward in a sexual assault case.4 The demotion was part of a broader investigation following the murder of Amy Lord.4

Legal Proceedings:: Following his demotion, Hall-Brewster appealed the decision. The case went through various legal channels, including the Division of Administrative Law Appeals (DALA) and the Superior Court.5 In 2019, the court upheld his demotion, though it was noted that he was deprived of a hearing before the demotion, which was a violation of his rights.6

It's important to note that while his LinkedIn profile lists him as a Detective at Boston3, this information may not be up to date given the documented demotion and subsequent legal proceedings. The discrepancy between his LinkedIn title and his reported current rank as Sergeant suggests that his career status may have changed over time.
