Sergeant Trooper Yuri Bukhenik, who was involved in the Karen Read investigation, was reassigned to the Division of Standards and Training, where he will perform administrative functions. While NBC 10 Boston's headline states Bukhenik "supervised" the investigation, Trooper Michael Proctor was the lead investigator, and Bukhenik was Proctor's supervisor.


Sgt. Bukhenik's position is looking to be filled. The reassignment comes less than three weeks after Karen Read's acquittal. The Norfolk DA's office will face significant challenges with past cases due to the credibility issues of their officers.

reassigned. First of all, what's the problem with this headline? Who supervised it? As I recall,

he was not the one who supervised. Wasn't it Proctor? He was Proctor's
