AN OPEN LETTER TO MEDFORD POLICE
CHIEF JOHN D. BUCKLEY
12:03 pm Monday 9-30-19

John D. Buckley
100 Main Street
Medford MA 02155

Police Chief Buckley's shocking statement  is outrageous and incorrect. 

"The officers of the Medford Police Department, involved in this matter, are decent women and men who have historically served this city with distinction. They are contrite," Buckley said."  

It's outrageous and incorrect.

If we had an honest mayor, an honest city solicitor and an honest city council, Buckley would be forced to do the right thing and press charges on each and every officer involved.

Citizens have been asking this journalist the names of each and every officer involved. Failure to provide that information - clearly of great public interest - smacks of a cover-up.  The public records request has been filed, and we know that the Medford Police Department has a bad history, failing quite often to respond to these requests - under the public records law - which means ex chief Leo A. Sacco, Jr. failed to abide by the law by not answering previous requests that this writer has filed.

1)When did Buckley, Mayor Burke, Mark Rumley, Paul Covino and others know of the alleged malfeasance at the Cradock Bridge?

2)IF Sacco, Buckley and Burke did NOT know this was going on - which I don't believe for a minute - they should be investigated for incompetence - Sacco's pension should be removed, and Buckley and Burke should be fired and held accountable to the public that they failed to serve.

3)If Sacco, Buckley and Burke DID know they should be investigated and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

About 35 days to the Nov 5 election and self-absorbed Mrs. Muccini-Burke states:

  "The trust of the people 
is the most important thing"     
 Mayor Stephanie Muccini-Burke 

Mrs. Burke - few people in this city "trust" you. 
You have violated the trust we put in you initially 

You snub requests to meet with you to discuss important topics. 

You lied on the 2015 campaign trail regarding free parking for seniors, even your writings are rife with references to yourself, not the public you took an oath to serve, and if a citizen has the courage to speak at the city council - as I have - frequently - the public gets slugged by a violent former city clerk, harassed by the police, Paul Covino and Detective Mackowski and others file false charges, and the police force that protected the criminal element at a 501c3 becomes as criminal as that criminal element at the now shuttered 501c3.


Corruption in the City of Medford https://tinyurl.com/trustofthepeople

In July of 2018 a police department was put on leave, the chief and lieutenant arrested.  This was North Carolina

Why does the police department in Medford have low standards for officers of the law and high standards for the citizens paying the freight?

SOUTHPORT, N.C. — An entire police department in North Carolina was put on leave after the arrest of the department’s chief and lieutenant, according to WECT.
The Southport Police Department’s police chief and lieutenant were arrested Thursday for allegedly moonlighting as truck drivers while officially on the clock at the police department.  https://wnep.com/2018/07/27/entire-north-carolina-police-department-suspended-after-arrest-of-chief-lieutenant/
______________________________________________________________________________

City Solicitor Mark E. Rumley, allegedly moonlighting at Somerville District Court, purportedly said to a local politician "You ratted me out to Joe Vig."

Did Mr. Rumley "moonlight" on the citizens of Medford, allegedly cheat the taxpayers out of Thursdays???, acting like the arrested chief and lieutenant in North Carolina but no repercussions for fracturing his oath of office, allegedly???  It's a fact that Rumley used his taxpayer-funded e mail on the Immaculate Conception website until this writer called him out on it.

There are no checks and balances in Medford.   A coward like Michael Marks allows sexual harassment by Rep Donato to happen at 10:30 am on a Sunday morning, October 15, 2017, caught on camera; Jenna Tarabelsi is convicted of rape of a 15 year old 10/13/15, Mayor Burke slams the gavel on October 16, 2017 when I'm on the school committee schedule to speak - Burke violating her oath of office again to censor a citizen (did she think I was going to tell the public she laughed at Donato grabbing Marks' erogenous zone? Of course I was. That's my right in a FREE SOCIETY, but there's a beautiful exhibit of Mayor Burke covering up her own bad conduct in the #MeToo movement.)  And was that John Falco's little children being subjected to Donato touching Marks' penis area?   Along with the 15 year old student running a camera?  October 17, 2017 Chief Sacco threatens me with "the police service that you deserve."  All over a five day span Medford is consistent in its malfeasance, isn't it?

Photos of Donato doing the dirty deed right here:

Officer Shawn Norton allegedly drunk and slamming into a car, Officer Shawn Hughes "charged with assault and battery after a fight with his wife" Covino and Mackowski not prosecuting Ed Finn for verbal and physical assault - by pressing criminal charges on the victim based on lies in police reports written by Rick Caraviello and thug/ex football player Ed Finn, an officer slugging another officer at the police station, the late Greg Hudson allegedly strangling his wife and later getting caught in a prostitution sting; Stephen LeBert's many crimes swept under the rug until it was caught on camera.   And alleged child porn at the police station not investigated properly because the alleged criminal pornographer has ties to an ex mayor, allegedly.  Ex clerk Ed Finn failing to show up in criminal court under subpoena.  And you expect us to believe the rhetoric this time, Chief Buckley?   No thanks.

Oh, and the smears on the public by Chief Sacco's office until that courageous Malden resident caught Lebert on camera.

So the alleged child pornographer was harassing multiple citizens.  When I filed a complaint at the police station on that individual Stephen Lebert got on the phone and called the now twice-arrested alleged criminal and warned him, or at least Lebert picked up the phone and made me think he was warning the alleged child pornographer.

Enclosed is a photo of a victim of retired officer James Lee, brother of the late Richard Lee of Medford City Hall.  Didn't Chief Sacco say the woman has "issues," as usual - blaming the victim and protecting his "family" of some very bad cops.  All Sacco ever did was blame victims (multiple times in the Medford Transcript) until Sacco was caught with his pants down in the Lebert investigation.

October 15, 2015 Brian Burke, the mayor's husband, said "Get that motherfucker out of there" referring to Joe Viglione videotaping a back-up tape of The Great Debate.  So much for the canon of ethics for a court clerk.

October 15, 2017, two years to the day, Burke's vulgar wife is laughing at a sex stunt at the high school's TV station in front of two little boys and a 15 year old Student

October 13, 2017 Jenna Tarabelsi convicted of rape of a 15 year old when she was allegedly a "political hire" and should never have been hired in the first place

October 16, 2017 Mayor Burke shuts down a scheduled speaker at the school committee, violating her oath of office, because in the #METoo movement Mrs. Burke thinks sexual harassment in front of little children is funny, and was caught on my camera.

October 17, 2017 Chief Sacco tells the city how safe we are, I inform the public of the Channel 5 report on allegations of drunk driving reported on Joe Sacco, the Chief's son, and the chief threatens this human being with "the police service that you deserve."

Officer Jimmy Lee cheats on his wife and kids, smacks his mistress in the mouth causing approximately 8 stitches (see photo attached) and Chief Sacco says the woman has "issues?"  Yeah, she was smacked around by a cop, domestic violence, and wasn't the hearing officer Stephanie Burke - allegedly conflicted - as she allegedly mentored the victim years prior?

The late Greg Hudson strangling his wife allegedly and later caught in a prostitution sting?

Stephen Lebert using vulgarities that would make vulgar court clerk Brian Burke blush (with envy)  threatening to kill a man

 A police officer allegedly lunges over a table at 100 Main Street to assault another police officer

Shawn Hughes still walking around with a gun when a 2008 Mike Beaudet report states:

FOX Undercover: Armed and Dangerous?
In 2007, a Medford police officer was charged with assault and battery after a fight with his wife. The case went to court and Officer Shawn Hughes admitted to sufficient facts. He’s on probation now, after the judge ordered all weapons removed from his home. But Shawn Hughes is still an active duty police officer, and still carries a gun. FOX25's Mike Beaudet reports.
And all Chief Buckley can say is: ""The officers of the Medford Police Department, involved in this matter, are decent women and men who have historically served this city with distinction"

The public has a right, Chief Buckley, not to believe you.

Fool us once with the gun clip at the McGlynn School, Mrs. Burke, shame on you.

Fool us twice with this Rumley-esque malarkey on not knowing about CradockBridgeGate,
shame on you, Buckley, Covino, Burke, Rumley et. al.

Paul L'Italien needs to refund Medford's money in my opinion.  My investigation has barely started and the public has more information from me that city hall and the police department don't want people to read, more information than L'Italien will be allowed to spill.  

This is a matter of GREAT public interest.   What are the names of all 45 officers, the 27 reprimanded and the three no one is mentioning when you subtract 15 exonerated?

Who are those other three and what did they do or not do?

I have a good idea where to send another Public Records Request to gather some evidence on this...and it won't be to the Medford Police or City Hall.  It is going outside of Medford and can shine a light on the lies from Mayor Burke's lips.

My continuing series: The Fall of Stephanie Muccini-Burke will keep you updated




The public wants answers.

A City Solicitor allegedly moonlighting and cheating Medford while in North Carolina they fire the chief and lieutenant at the police station for...moonlighting.

Did Mark E. Rumley pay the citizens back if he cheated them, possibly for years, or did Mike McGlynn do a quickie "school pass"
to let his consigliere off the hook?     Mark E. Rumley's ears must be ringing because citizens of Medford tell me how much they hate him, not just dislike Mark, the City Solicitor of Medford is loathed by many, many people in this old town.  And that speaks volumes.

It is time for Buckley, Burke, Covino and Rumley to come clean on CradockBridgeGate, to be honest with the citizens about the entire truth of this story, for you know just as I know that this story is BIGGER than you are letting on. Much bigger.

The public has a right to know.   And the public has a right to higher standards for city officials.

The low standards of Sacco, Buckley, Rumley, Burke and former mayor McGlynn are totally unacceptable.


To be continued.



Respectfully,
