Charges[edit]
On September 28, 2012; Dookhan was arrested and charged with obstruction of justice and falsification of academic records. The latter charge came because she had claimed both on her resume and in sworn testimony to have had a master's degree in chemistry from the University of Massachusetts at Boston. However, school officials revealed that Dookhan had no such degree, and had never taken master's level classes there.[11]
On December 17, Dookhan was formally arraigned on 27 charges—17 counts of obstruction of justice, eight counts of tampering with evidence and one count each of perjury and falsification of academic records. Prosecutors alleged that whenever a second test failed to confirm the initial results, Dookhan would tamper with the vials to make them consistent with the inaccurate results obtained by her dry labbing. She was also charged with falsely certifying results that she knew to be compromised; these certifications were admitted as evidence in court.[12]
Imprisonment[edit]
On 22 November 2013, Dookhan was sentenced to three to five years imprisonment and two years probation by Judge Carol S. Ball in Suffolk Superior Court, after pleading guilty to crimes relating to falsifying drug tests.[1][13][14] This was greater than the one year sentence her defense requested but less than the five to seven year sentence requested by the prosecution.[13][14] However, Ball said that upward departure was merited due to the ramifications of Dookhan's misconduct. Ball wrote, "Innocent persons were incarcerated, guilty persons have been released to further endanger the public, millions and millions of public dollars are being expended to deal with the chaos Ms. Dookhan created, and the integrity of the criminal justice system has been shaken to the core."[14]
Dookhan, Massachusetts Department of Correction inmate F81328, is serving her sentence at Massachusetts Correctional Institution – Framingham.[15]
Impact[edit]
Hundreds of defendants are now free of detention, and as a result of this, Boston Police Sgt. James Machado (demonic Sgt.) suggests "innocent people will be killed" with around 20 already having been arrested for new crimes.[2] People accused of crimes based on evidence handled by Dookhan are filing civil suits for "violating their right to a fair trial".[2]
