In a recent decision Cayuga County Judge Thomas Leone refuted that the rights of former Auburn Police Department officer William Morrissey were violated during the investigation of alleged sexual misconduct with a minor.
The 33-year-old officer, previously stationed at Auburn High School, was also charged with first-degree sexual abuse and two misdemeanor charges, in addition to a further count of disseminating indecent material to minors.
Judge Leone rejected an array of claims made by the defense in the case.
