RE: Public Record Request of
February 24, 2018 and April 13, 2018
Dear Mr. Rumley:
Thank you for your response of May 17, 2018 regarding the materials that the Medford Police have.
Yes, I will be appealing the decision you made to the Supervisor of Records, not that I have any interest in seeing the material on the floppy disc, but that I think the local and national press and news media needs to inspect the material and further investigate why naked images allegedly created with equipment co-owned by the city of Medford were allegedly sold on the internet resulting, allegedly, in Paypal refusing to work with an individual who was twice arrested, and who was so involved in the destruction of public access television in Medford, with decisions by Mark E. Rumley which failed to benefit the public and, instead, benefited the individuals who you promised to investigate: a board of directors that you participated in at least for one period of time, possibly at two different times.
Let me be very clear that I object to Mark E. Rumley responding to this public records request as I believe Solicitor Rumley has a conflict of interest when it comes to the alleged child pornography which was allegedly created by a former board member of a corporation which you also were a board member of.
This is an extremely sensitive and serious matter; that the information is not nearly as voluminous as the flawed “Rumley Report” has not stopped you from denigrating my work as “rants” and other flowery, negative speech that is an embarrassment to your office and the citizens paying you handsomely for work that is less than direct, sincere and honest.
To your correspondence:
Two points here, a third one at the conclusion of this response to your response:
1)Lt. Buckley is incorrect. It was not a "singular item" but a floppy disk, a letter and an envelope.
2)the point of this public records request was to get a statement in writing on the documents, which you have provided, and for which I thank you. To say that the Medford Police did not conduct the investigation seriously is an understatement; that is why I went to the FBI and attempted to avoid Medford City Hall and the Medford Police getting their hands on this material. It was obvious to me that city hall would want this swept under the rug. Your letter confirms these suspicions.
Your office and the Administrations of McGlynn and Muccini-Burke are rife with:
a)failure to be forthright
b)name-calling to thwart investigations by the public
c)alleged corruption on a massive scale - be it Police Chief Sacco's son not getting arrested for alleged drunk driving; allegations of a police chief "tainting" the hiring process regarding his niece or – if not corruption – inefficiency and failure to properly serve the public paying you: your complete failure to have enough board members at a meeting of Medford Community Cablevision, Inc. on or about December of 2008 when I advised you that Mr. Frank Pilleri was going to shut down a public access TV election that you had promised the citizens of Medford.
This is nothing personal, Mr. Rumley, just facts that you usually try to diminish or sweep under the rug, as inefficiently as Chief Sacco makes the case against his son even more egregious when Sacco threatened me with shoddy police work on October 17, 2017. You arrived the moment after Sacco's inappropriate, misguided and ill-advised harassment of a citizen.
As Leo A. Sacco Jr. has been exposed, it makes this cover-up of Medford Child-Porn Gate even more disturbing.
Some other facts to show how the citizens cannot trust the police, the McGlynn Administration, the Muccini-Burke Administration, and your office – facts given here so that we can get this issue into the hands of the authorities (the FBI is receiving a copy of this correspondence) and into the public arena.
FACT:
Your failure to have the promised
election on or about Jan 19, 2009 (see Judge Jackson-Thompson article http://archive.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/08/14/report_urges_overhaul_of_medford_tv3_citing_failures_as_forum/
) resulted in MCC TV3 spending approximately
$100,000.00 in legal fees to harass the late Pat Fiorello and to file at least
four lawsuits against this citizen. You, as my witness, gave legal advice
to the Mayor's cousin-by-marriage, the TV3 attorney, when Judge Timothy Gailey
removed Mr. MCC TV3 attorney from the cases saying to the attorney "You
knew you were conflicted when you took these cases."
Additionally, you have thrown rocks at me from the witness stand in a civil
case as well as a case where I was obtaining an order of protection for reasons
of safety. Chillingly, rather than go back to work for the citizens of Medford
after your testimony was stopped by the judge, you stayed to watch a case that
did not involve you, other than it being evidence that the city of Medford
allowed me to be stalked, tormented and harassed for seventeen months starting
at the exact point when my best friend and life partner had passed
away. IT WAS NO COINCIDENCE THAT I WAS STALKED AND ASSAULTED BY TWO DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS IN A FIVE DAY PERIOD
That I was stalked on June 12 and 13, three days before City Clerk Ed Finn physically assaulted me (on or about June 16,) that a witness who saw the entire Ed Finn felonious assault on my person appears to have been hushed up (and that witness actually intimidated me, telling me not to talk about the assault on my person by Edward P. Finn. A lawyer you do not know was shocked and said that the witness the police refused to interview had intimidated me by telling me telling me to shut up about Finn's assault WAS witness intimidation) and that politician Robert Cappucci noted that the same week Ed Finn and his wife allegedly told Cappucci that Bob Penta would lose the 2015 election to Stephanie Burke because of the victim, me (didn't know I had THAT much power when you personally told a judge that my blog was "delusional" and that no one takes it seriously. With 1,203,086 page views as of 8:02 am this morning; it is hard to believe your testimony under oath: that no one takes the writing seriously.
Medford Information Central dot com is a registered business at city hall, has had respected attorney George Sacco praise my work at a city council meeting; has had politician Bob Cappucci tell me personally that he met a person who "couldn't wait to get home from work to read Medford Info Central, etc. etc. The editor of the popular blog, rather than receiving a commendation from the city solicitor, gets attacked by the city solicitor from the witness stand, on more than one occasion.
So when it comes to something as serious as child pornography allegedly being disseminated in Medford allegedly by a close friend of Mayor Michael J. McGlynn, in a city where a fifteen year old was raped by an employee of Medford High School who should have never been hired in the first place, it is stunning that Mark E. Rumley refuses to draw the line when it comes to the safety of children. Instead, Mr. Rumley wants to erroneously CORI check innocent people who want to produce public access, but people renting Medford High School have no CORI check. They just leave ammunition and gun magazines lying around, further endangering the kids.
Interesting that Attorney Scanlon usually handles the public records request responses and that Mr. Rumley, who sat on a board of directors that also had at one time or another the alleged perpetrator of this alleged “Child Porn Gate,” decides to handle this. Very interesting indeed.
So when Mark Rumley and the Medford Police want to allegedly violate each oath that they took to protect the public, when Mark Rumley and the police fail to protect and serve, you have problems develop like former teacher Mark Smith’s ugly situation, the conviction of rapist Jenna Tarabelsi, and - obviously - the disgusting cover-up of an alleged child pornography ring by someone who sat on the board of directors of a flawed corporation that actually had you as a board member.
There seems to be a bit of a conflict, Mr. Rumley, when the alleged perpetrator of the alleged child pornography ring was on the board of directors of a corporation that you were also a member of the board of directors of.
As Kim Scanlon handles public records requests, the anomaly in this instance, that Mark E. Rumley is personally responding, when Mr. Rumley was a member of the board of the same corporation that the alleged mastermind behind the alleged child porn ring sat on is downright creepy, disturbing, unnerving and reeks of political maneuvering to allegedly help your good friend, Michael J. McGlynn, save face as McGlynn is far too close for comfort to the alleged perpetrator. An alleged perpetrator who was arrested for allegedly giving alcohol to a minor in some alleged “sleepover” in Provincetown, and who was arrested on charges of a false bomb threat. This is the “quality people” involved in public access television in Medford?
And with Stephanie Muccini-Burke as “issuing authority” we have three more individuals from Medford Community Cablevision, Inc. engaged in the Chapter 74 board and the access station itself? You have no problem with the individuals who destroyed access television in our city now participating at the high school with an allegation that one of their colleagues masterminded an alleged child pornography ring?
What is wrong with you, Mr. Rumley?
That you state that there are "suggestive activities of a sexual nature" on the evidence, with the alleged perpetrator having access to cameras co-owned by the city, and allegations that the perpetrator would zero in on the crotches of innocent victims exercising allegedly at a gymnasium with windows at Station Landing, Medford, and that the allegation is that PayPal refuses to work with that individual due to allegations of inappropriate and sexually explicit material which may be child pornography, speaks volumes about the ugly side of the city of Medford, and why I spoke to multiple lawyers regarding how to handle the evidence that arrived in my mailbox.
That is why the first call I made was to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which is receiving a copy of this correspondence, as I've stated to you earlier.
The final
point:
3)The Medford Police once told me that they had one of the “best” cybercrime
detectives in the country. The evidence given to the police when Douglas Nagengast of the District Attorney’s office did not respond to get this evidence (the FBI said that since I knew Nagengast I should contact him about it - I had met with Nagengast previously about TV3 Meedford, a meeting which J.J. McLean attended, which I thought and still feel was inappropriate at the time…) but, instead, allegedly contacted the very police department that I and others did NOT want handling what is now called “Medford Child Porn Gate” has resulted in no action whatsoever.
But this point, point #3, is that the name of the person involved, the pizza shop he allegedly worked at (where it is alleged the wife of the owner would warn young boys to stay away from your colleague from the board of directors that you participated on) – it says that if an amateur sleuth could figure out the age of the person on the floppy disc, one of the “best” cyber crime units in the country could certainly figure out that the images on the disk are of a child or are of an adult.
This math is easier than figuring out the alleged theft of copper by another good friend of former mayor Michael J. McGlynn.
To sum it up: the public has a right to know about how Medford City Hall and the Medford Police Department behave. If a police chief will threaten a citizen alerting the residents that his son was not arrested for allegedly driving drunk, which Chief Leo A. Sacco, Jr. did to me two days after a state rep committed a brazen sexual stunt on a city council vice president at the high school, in front of children, which was two days after the conviction of Jenna Tarabelsi for rape, then you will have to call these facts a “rant” – you will have to shoot the messenger, Mr. Rumley, which you have so much experience doing. The problem is, instead of doing the right thing, Mr. Rumley does the wrong thing, like allegedly being conflicted and allegedly taking control of an alleged child pornography case when Mr. Rumley was on the very same board of directors as the person being accused of allegedly running a child pornography ring in Medford while allegedly using equipment co-owned by the city of Medford to operate that child pornography ring.
You will be receiving my appeal and my objection to you participating in this process within the 90 days allowed.
This is nothing personal, Mr. Rumley. This is about your poor decisions – including asking for CORI checks of innocent people while a board member of a board that you participated on allegedly ran a child pornography ring, and you, Mr. Rumley, turned a blind eye to the wrongful conduct that persisted at MCC TV3 while maliciously attacking a man working hard, doing his civic duty, for free speech in the city of Medford.
