Former Boston police officer Diana Lopez sentenced to 6 months in prison, restitution of $36,000, and 2 years of supervised release for submitting false overtime claims.
Lopez's defense attorney expressed disappointment with the court's decision, stating they are discussing next steps after her sentencing.
Lopez and other officers submitted fraudulent overtime slips claiming hours not worked at the evidence warehouse, resulting in $386,766 of undue overtime pay over four years.
