  • Trial date set for wounded police officer

    SALEM — Now that a wounded North Andover police officer has a 2026 trial date, her defense team is turning its attention to the culture of the North Andover Police Department and what transpired before the shooting nearly five months ago.

    A jury trial has been set for Feb. 9 in Essex County Superior Court following a trial assignment conference on Tuesday for Kelsey Fitzsimmons, 29, who was shot by a responding officer and colleague in her North Andover home after being served with an abuse prevention order filed by her then-fiance, North Andover firefighter Justin Aylaian.

  • Stolen body parts are ‘goods,’ Judge tells Salem woman in Harvard morgue case

    A Salem woman who was arrested in 2023 for allegedly taking part in a ring selling stolen human remains claims her case should be dismissed because body parts are not legally considered “goods” — an argument a judge turned down this week.

    Katrina Maclean, 46, owner of the Peabody-based “Kat’s Kreepy Kreations” and curator of Freaksantiquesuniques, argued in a brief filed in April that human remains are not considered property under the law.
