A father and son appeared in court facing embezzlement charges for allegedly stealing $50,000 from the West Medford Little League. They are accused of writing checks for themselves and using an account at BJ’s Wholesale Club to buy things for themselves that had nothing to do with the children. Stanley Komins, 78, was silent as he left court with his son, Stephen Komins, 45. Prosecutors said the case against them is strong, but complicated. The total loss to the ball club is more than $50,000. The West Medford Little League said they first became suspicious when Stanley Komins retired in 2011 and wouldn’t hand over financial records. League officials said they performed an audit and went to police with the troubling discovery.


THE CITY COUNCIL HAS REPEATEDLY ASKED FOR FINANCIAL RECORDS AND MINUTES TO THE MEETINGS OF THE NOW-DEFUNCT MEDFORD COMMUNITY CABLEVISION, INC.


JOHNNY ASKS:

JOHNNY SAYS: BEFORE THEY MOVED FROM 5 HIGH STREET TO 32 RIVERSIDE AVE., HOW MUCH DAMAGE FROM THE EQUIPMENT SITTING IN WATER ALL THAT TIME, AND THE FACT THAT THEY TRIED ...AND FAILED IT APPEARS (DO WE REALLY KNOW?) TO ABSCOND WITH THE MONIES.
