Michael Cox was officially sworn in as Boston police commissioner yesterday. He replaces Dennis White, who was fired last year after decades-old domestic violence accusations — which he denied — came to light.
Mayor Michelle Wu swears in Michael Cox as Boston police commissioner at a ceremony on City Hall Plaza Monday.
After taking the oath during a ceremony at City Hall Plaza, Cox thanked his family and friends who supported him through the incident that he said changed his life forever but does not define him. The Boston native most recently served as police chief in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Before taking that job in 2019, Cox served three decades in the Boston Police Department, where he took on the so-called “blue wall of silence” after he was attacked by colleagues who mistook him for a fleeing suspect.
Cox lost his footing on a frozen puddle, causing him to fall and crack his head, according to a department injury report.
