Two of 3 Hinsdale Officers Involved in Kauvil Shooting Won't Return

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
HINSDALE, Mass. — Seven months after being placed on leave only one officer involved in the fatal police shooting of 27-year-old Biagio Kauvil in January has returned to duty. 
 
The Select Board accepted Police Chief Shawn Boyne's letter of intention to retire during Wednesday's board meeting.
 
"We've got a lot to do. We've got to build a department again, but we'll survive," board member Raymond Huntoon said in a follow-up. 
 
Two of the three Select Board members were present, with Huntoon serving as chair because the chairman was absent. 
 
Huntoon and Margaret Gregory both voted to accept Boyne's letter of intention to retire. The retirement will not be official until the Berkshire County Retirement Board sets an effective date, Huntoon said later.
 
The board did not read Boyne's retirement letter aloud during Wednesday's meeting and did not discuss the matter further. iBerkshires' request for the letter under public records was rejected with board members saying it contained medical information. 
 
Despite the attention the situation has received online, the meeting was lightly attended, with about a dozen people in attendance.
