'I hope you die': State Police trooper suspended after he allegedly strangled ex
"Wendel Seney, 32, is charged with strangulation or suffocation, two counts of assault and battery on a family or household member, reckless operation of a motor vehicle, and a firearm possession felony, court records show. Earlier this month, Seney's law enforcement certification was suspended by the Massachusetts Peace Officer Standards and Training, or POST, Commission. He was ordered to surrender his Massachusetts State Police credentials and equipment, according to the Jan. 14 suspension order."
"The 32-year-old woman reported the allegations against Seney to State Police in October, and the allegations were referred to Walpole police. She said that, during multiple incidents over their less-than-a-year relationship, Seney allegedly pulled her hair and choked her. Previously, he had also pulled her hair and pinched her at a Celtics game at TD Garden, she alleged. Police noted that "alcohol seemed to play a role in some of the incidents.""

The Massachusetts POST Commission suspended his law enforcement certification and ordered surrender of his State Police credentials and equipment. State Police relieved Seney of duty and suspended him without pay while cooperating with the District Attorney's investigation and conducting an internal affairs review. A 32-year-old woman reported multiple incidents alleging hair-pulling, choking, pinching at a Celtics game, and an incident involving a vehicle; alcohol was noted as a factor. Seney pleaded not guilty and was released on personal recognizance.
