Michael Tapscott is due back in court in the Town of Geneva today.
The former Geneva police officer was charged for allegedly selling a controlled substance to another person at a business location in April while he was on duty, in uniform and in a marked police car. He has resigned from the police department.
According to court documents, the GPS on Tapscott’s patrol car is what led investigators to Geneva Foreign & Sports car dealership on Rt-14 where the transaction on a single pill took place.
Tapscott was a 13-year-veteran of the force.
