Mayor Breanna Lungo-Koehn
Medford City Hall
85 George P. Hassett Drive 
Medford, Massachusetts 02155


Dear Mayor-elect Lungo-Koehn:

Chief Buckley on Oct 1, 2019 at the Medford City Council brought up four points that need to be addressed: 

a)the public trust  

b)that people were not afraid of the police in Medford

c)that "everyone" agreed with his position.   You, Mayor Lungo-Koehn, did not.  Nor did I.  Nor do (present tense) my readers.

d)that "these are all good men and women."   How do the words "fraud" and "police misconduct" go along with "good men and women?"
  It sounds like a lie from Donald Trump and this country is tired of being lied to by officials who are supposed to hold themselves to the
  highest of standards

FINDING SOLUTIONS TO THE PERPETUAL PROBLEM OF MEDFORD CITY GOVERNMENT
  
The Sec of State's office Determined on October 24th that the name of the police officers who were disciplined for "compensation fraud," a term used by Attorney Kimberly Scanlon, should be given to this investigative reporter.   See the five page Nov 15, 2019 document from the Records office (attached.)

Medford can only move forward if quick and decisive action is taken by the new mayor.

I will list ten quick reasons why this Determination of 11/15/19 matters and why it needs to be studied to improve Medford.

While Mea Mustone and her pals were throwing rocks at Mayor-elect Lungo-Koehn in the pages of the Medford Transcript, Joe Viglione was doing the heavy lifting,  uncovering keys to finding and removing the acts of corruption in the city of Medford, Massachusetts.  Shame on Mea, Paulette Van der Kloot, Paul Ruseau and Kathy Kreatz.  The new mayor needs to consider their insubordination and taking of sides. 

10)Conclusion/Determination/Ruling of the Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division 

     On October 24th, after the Determination in my favor to release the 27 names, city lawyer Mark E. Rumley wrote a bogus "Reconsideration," clearly to push the goal posts back as far as he could.

     Also on October 24th Assistant City Solicitor Scanlon wrote in a separate document called Amended Response to Records Request: "...regarding compensation fraud in working details by Medord Police officers."
    
     The weekly Medford Transcript called it "police misconduct."

Medford has lacked transparency for decades.  The Law Office failing to provide documents of great public interest is a glaring example of how
the Muccini-Burke administration's slogan of "Partners in Progress" is nothing of the sort.

Mayor Lungo-Koehn must view Councilor Dello Russo and Councilor Knight as carrying the water bucket, the talking points, for Burke.

The Determination was obvious and as I stated, Marian Ryan can conduct 500 investigations, the officers were disciplined, they paid fines or other punishments, citizens have an absolute right to know without excuses that have no substance to them.

Let's explore that concept further in nine: Public Trust

__________________________________________

9)Public Trust  
   J.J. McLean - after telling me he would reconstruct the Wikipedia page on my work which was maliciously hacked by TV3 later said to me that  he lies "all the time."   

In 2018 xxxx xxxxxxxxxx lied to me.   You know, when police abuse the power to lie, which is for investigation purposes,  not for interacting with the public, it erodes the public trust.  It shows the pattern that an individual needs to provide in order to sue the police

I am not a lawyer, but a legal encyclopedia provides this: Generally, citizens can (successfully) sue the police for infliction of emotional distress; there was a pattern of conduct or an isolated incident, or 

J.J. McLean lied to me.  xxxx xxxxxxxxxx lied to me.  Leo Sacco threatened me with "the police service you deserve." He followed it with "sue me."

That is NOT how to gain the public trust.   

Nor is this:

“LeBert was acting like a madman, unprofessional and unbecoming behavior from an officer,’’ she wrote in the complaint. “LeBert was totally harassing and threatening me this whole time, for what reason, I have no idea.’’

Before he let her go that night, LeBert did one more thing: He handed her a ticket for $25. Not parked in a marked space, it said.

Corbin’s complaint was added to LeBert’s thick personnel file. Medford Police Chief Leo Sacco said he told the now 31-year veteran of the force to watch how he acted.

And where have you heard this before?  Paraphrasing Chief Buckley, no doubt, in Buckley's reprehensible Oct 1 speech to the city council:
According to the police chief and his colleagues, LeBert is an outstanding officer who does his job extremely well. He hustles every day like it’s his first.
But his file is littered with complaints that call him a bully.
______________________________________________________________
The outrageous number of complaints on Lebert - that little incident in Woburn out of his jurisdiction just another ugly saga, is NOT an "outstanding officer."  He's a jerk.  And when I filed a criminal complaint on TV3 at the station LeBert called a now twice-arrested thug to alert him to the complaint being filed.

That's not earning the public trust, Jack.  Not by a long shot.  Lies, a threat from an ex chief, Lebert calling an alleged criminal to protect the criminal element.  

Gaining the public trust is essential.  Mayor Lungo-Koehn may have to remove the chief, xxxx xxxxxxxxxx, Paul Covino, Detective Mackowski and the 27 on the list in order to truly gain the public trust.

Mackowski and Covino were involved in that fraudulent criminal case against a victim of city clerk Ed Finn's vicious physical and verbal assault AT city hall.  That is unacceptable in a civil society.

8)Fear of the Medford Police
  The new mayor notes that her constituents fear the police.  I certainly do.  Chief Buckley refutes that.  We need a chief who actually listens to the
  community.  We don't need a clone of Leo A. Sacco, Jr., an individual who took care of himself first, the city later...way later.

  When the police department is national news because Stephen Lebert says he is going to murder a man, put a bullet in his "f...ng" head,
  and when a plethora of misdeeds fall out of 100 Main Street and into the Medford Transcript on LeBert, and Chief Sacco is exposed as
  painting victims in a bad light (Jimmy Lee's victim, a victim or two of LeBert's, PLUS I heard the alleged police spin on the driver who caught
  Lebert on camera - until too much news media got on it for the aspersions cast on the driver to get any traction.)

  a)the police failed to do the right thing for decades in regard to violent Medford Community Cablevision, Inc.
  b)the police never had a Zero Tolerance policy for Lebert, the late Greg Hudson, Shawn Norton*, Shawn Hughes, Jimmy Lee and many others
  c)we are talking acts of alleged domestic violence and Chief Buckley says "these are all good men and women" and no one fears the police.

  How can you gain the public trust when the previous police chief - in print - would disparage victims?
________________________________________________________________________________________________________

*In Shawn Norton's case it was alleged drunk driving and allegedly slamming his car into a firefighter's car and then taking off, hit and run.  Not "domestic violence" per se, but still a chilling
and frightening act unbecoming of an officer of the law.

MEDFORD (CBS) – A Medford police officer is facing charges after he allegedly drove drunk and fled from police after a hit and run crash.
Shawn Norton, 43, of Reading, was arraigned Thursday on charges of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, leaving the scene of a property damage accident, failure to stop for police, speeding, and failure to operate a vehicle within marked lanes.

According to police, Norton was unsteady on his feet, smelled of alcohol and had difficulty following directions.
Norton’s bail was set at $100 cash and he is next scheduled to appear in court on April 21.

ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS CASH...TALK ABOUT DOUBLE STANDARDS

IT WILL COST YOU MORE TO FIGHT DETECTIVE MACKOWSKI'S FALSE FRAUDULENT CHARGES, ABUSING THE CRIMINAL COURT SYSTEM


NO, MR. BUCKLEY, PEOPLE DON'T TRUST THE POLICE

THEY DO FEAR THEM, AS THE NEW MAYOR SAID ON OCTOBER 1, 2019
