Peter Newton Decertified by Vermont

Peter Newton, former Addison County sheriff, has lost his law enforcement certification after being convicted of assault and lewd conduct last fall. The Vermont Criminal Justice Council unanimously voted to revoke his badge, effectively ending his career in state law enforcement. He’s now listed on the National Decertification Index, barring him from working as a cop anywhere in the country. This move underscores the system’s commitment to accountability for public officials.
