A Massachusetts State Trooper is scheduled to appear before a judge in Worcester District Coirt in February amid allegations that he shoplifted from a Target store in Worcester and a Target Store in Millbury.
The Trooper has been identified as Zacharia Kent. He graduated from the Massachusetts State Police Academy in 2022, and in October of this year, he was suspended without pay following his duty status hearing.
Between January and September of this year, Kent allegedly shoplifted from the stores 23 times while using the self-checkout paying for some merchandise and allegedly stealing other merchandise.
