ROCKLAND -- Five Maine deputies have been reprimanded for using a Taser on a sheriff's deputy during a bachelor party in Knox County.
Maine prosecutors launched an investigation after video surfaced of the incident in which a deputy was jolted with a Taser, then hog-tied and paraded around town in the back of a pickup on Labor Day weekend in 2007.
On the video, the groom-to-be, who is now a state trooper, dropped to the ground after being Tasered. Then the other men bound and covered him with oil and feathers. No criminal charges were filed. The information came to light after the Bangor Daily News filed a Freedom of Information request, seeking the information, which it received just yesterday.
