East Hampton Town, Village Police Disciplinary Records Since 2020 Include Only Minor Incidents

In the East Hampton’s town and village police departments, internal investigations determined that a handful of complaints against police officers since mid-2020 were valid and grounds for discipline — but nothing that called for a prolonged suspension or termination.
