The wife of a police officer was arrested after calling police to report a burglary in her home.
Maria Daly of Massachusetts, allegedly removed $10,000 worth of jewelry and money from her house before telling police that they were robbed.
Daly also vandalized her own home. She spray-painted the letters BLM on the outside wall of her home to make it look like Black Lives Matters supporters were after them because her husband is a police officer.
She also wrote about the robbery on social media. “We woke up to not only our house being robbed while we were sleeping, but to see this hatred for no reason,” Daly wrote on Facebook.
However, Millbury police said that there was discrepancies in her story. Daly eventually admitted to making up the story.
She was arrested, but her husband, Millbury K-9 Officer Daniel Daly, was cleared as he had no involvement in the crime.
Millbury Police Chief Donald Desorcy said that he believes Daly faked the robbery due to the couple’s financial troubles.
Maria Daly was charged with filing a false police report and misleading a police investigation.
