Dedham District Court
The Dedham District Court is a Massachusetts District Court in Dedham, Massachusetts. Scenes from Kathryn Bigelow's 2017 film Detroit, set during the 1967 Detroit riots, were filmed inside.[1] It was built in 1938.[2]
Notable cases
It has been the site of a number of famous trials. During the Faber/ Millen trial across the street at the Norfolk County Courthouse, actor Roscoe Ates and many others tried to get inside to watch the proceedings.[3] Court personnel gave him a fake summons to have him appear at the district court to get him in the building.[3]
On July 29, 2021, Theodore McCarrick, a former cardinal of the Catholic Church was charged with sexually assaulting a 16-year-old male in 1974 by Wellesley Police at the courthouse.[4]
