Sheesh! Makes ya wish for the good old days when Chief Leo Sacco's Son WASN'T arrested for the allegations of drunk driving!
Former officer Dorston Bartlett, 65, allegedly beat a 32-year-old homeless man several times in July 2018 at Ashmont Station. Bartlett arrested the victim and on charges of assault and battery on a police officer.

Bartlett was arraigned Tuesday on charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, violating a person’s civil rights, and misleading a police officer.
Sgt. David Finnerty, 43, and Sgt. Kenny Orcel, 55, were placed on leave after being accused of creating a false report about the incident. They are both charged with making a false report as a public officer or employees and as accessories after the fact to assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
“People aren’t supposed to sleep on the trains and police officers on the transit have to move people off,” said Orcel’s defense attorney Doug Louison. “The homeless population in the area is difficult but the trains are not the solution. my understanding is the officer used an appropriate use of force. Police issued batons for a reason.”

MBTA COP JOE SACCO
It pays to have friends in low places
In what universe does the MBTA allow one of their own NOT to get a field sobriety test?
And when I informed the city council of this story on or about October 17, 2017, Chief Sacco threatened me with "the police service you deserve" when I asked why I had to hire an attorney to get an HPO (1 year + 3 additional years) on the stalker Julie Kelleher of Malden TV.
Good old Malden TV, where recently a board member ran out on the tarmac of Logan Airport...illegally....
