Rumor is spreading like wildfire that Mayor McGlynn got a job as a consultant with the Greenline for around 280k the question yet to be answered is why did McGlynn leave office?


McGlynn's brother-in-law Jonathan R. Davis, married to Bernadette McGlynn, was a higher up at MBTA

Jack McGlynn, the older brother, was an MBTA consultant or lobbyist allegedly booted by Deval Patrick

Jack's wife, Diane, purportedly is still at the law office of McGlynn & McGlynn in Salem

Feb 4, 2009 Governor Deval Patrick is taking aim at a time-worn Beacon Hill practice that, on the surface, seems paradoxical: state government hiring expensive lobbyists to influence state government. The MBTA spent $48,000 last year on lobbyists. According to spokesman Joe Pesaturo, the two lobbyists, Jack McGlynn and William Ryan, were let go in a "cost-cutting move." They had helped the MBTA "file and track T-related legislation," Pesaturo said. http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/02/04/patrick_targets_agency_lobbyists/?page=full
