Overview

• Boston police said Dever’s resignation took effect September 1, with a personnel order announcing it released Friday.
• She had been on family medical leave, and officials have not stated a reason for her departure or linked it to the case.
• Called by the defense, Dever recanted an earlier assertion about seeing two officials with Karen Read’s SUV, describing it in court as a 'false memory.'
• Dever was interviewed in the federal review of the case and told the court she had 'no connection to this case.'
• After the mixed June verdict clearing Read of homicide charges and convicting her of DUI, defense attorney Alan Jackson asked BPD to place Dever on the Brady list over credibility concerns.
