By MyFM’s Claire Beverly – A former state trooper who lives in Westborough is one of two former troopers who have been convicted of overtime theft charges. Following a two-week federal trial, Sgt. William R. Robertson, along with Lt. Daniel J. Griffin of Belmont, was found guilty Tuesday of conspiracy to steal federal funds, aiding and abetting wire fraud and more to the tune of more than $130,000 while commanding a special state police traffic unit. Both men will stay out on bond until they are sentenced in March when they face possible prison time.
