Lynn Clark, 51, of Belchertown, was charged by criminal complaint with one count of making false statements. Clark will make an initial appearance in federal court in Springfield later today.

According to the complaint, in December 2021, the City of Chicopee was in the process of hiring a new Chief of Police. On Dec. 3, 2021, law enforcement received a report that a candidate for the position was receiving threats intended to force the victim to withdraw their application for Chicopee Chief of Police. Specifically, in November 2021, after submitting their application for Chief of Police, the victim received numerous text messages from unknown numbers containing threats to expose information that would cause the victim reputational harm. As a result, the victim withdrew their application, and the City delayed the selection process.
