Overview
- Katherine Clark's transgender daughter, Riley Dowell, was sentenced to one year of probation after reaching a deal with a Boston court.
- Dowell faced charges of assault and battery on a police officer, vandalizing property, tagging property, vandalizing a historic marker/monument, and resisting arrest.
- As part of the deal, Dowell will be required to write a letter of apology to the officer she is accused of assaulting.

- The case will be dismissed upon successful completion of all conditions within the one year period.
