Manchester Police Officer Acquitted in Abuse Case

A Manchester police officer arrested in connection with a domestic abuse case has been acquitted on all charges.

Thursday a jury found 29-year-old Michael MacNeilly not guilty of assaulting his wife.

The woman claimed MacNeilly slapped her and shoved her on a couch and also pushed her head against a wall.

MacNeilly denied those claims and said his wife was jealous of other women.

He’s been on paid administrative leave since being charged in April.
