As a federal case triggers a closer examination of Fall River police officer Nicholas Hoar’s credibility, one family is hoping the FBI will investigate another case from Hoar’s past: the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Larry Ruiz-Barreto.

In November, Fall River police officer Nicholas Hoar appeared in federal court to deny charges of filing false reports that allegedly covered up a beating he gave to a suspect outside the city’s police station.

Then, just sixteen seconds after Hoar said “street racers again” into his police radio, another transmission went out announcing “shots fired.” The district attorney, Thomas Quinn III, accepted the police officers’ account of the shooting and cleared Hoar of wrongdoing, despite conflicting accounts from six civilians who witnessed the shooting as well.

“They covered up the case since his brother works in internal investigations,” Ruiz Hernandez said. “The father is an important person in the police department and he helped his son.” An initial police report from the night of Larry’s death lists Hoar’s brother, James T. Hoar, as an “emergency response official” who is relevant to the case.

Famania, who knew Larry’s father because they both ran auto repair businesses in New Bedford, remembered the shooting differently than the other civilian eyewitnesses who spoke to investigators. He was the only civilian who remembered Larry’s car moving at all. State Police Sgt. Christopher Dolan: And at no time, did you see any of his body — hands, legs, upper body —on top of Larry’s hood of his car because he’s pushing him back? Did he fall or anything on it?
