Two of Three OPEN MEETING LAW COMPLAINTS Complaint on Caraviello and Clerk Hurtubise re; Adam Knight Police Investigation at City Council of Medford

 Greetings Readers,


I just filed my response to city hall's response to the Open Meeting Law complaints, two of them, that I filed.

You must wait 30 days to respond to give both parties time to possibly negotiate.

City Hall REFUSED my offer to negotiate, which we expect when they are hiding something, like a city council vice president smashing things up.


What I might send as a supplement to what I just submitted you get to read first!


Here is the supplement:


NOTES WRITTEN IMMEDIATELY AFTER RECEIVING THE CITY’S RESPONSE

PART 2

EDITED 12:04 AM TUESDAY MARCH 8 2021

 

This intentional violation of the Open Meeting Law, interfering with meeting minutes and retaliation against a petitioner/journalist, is allegedly due to collusion between the city clerk, Adam Hurtubise and Council President Richard F. Caraviello.

This investigative reporter broke a story on the City Council Vice President, Adam Knight, destroying a Bank of America door and allegedly fleeing at a high rate of speed.  There were multiple informants tipping me off to the alleged activities by Knight on April 1, 2021 and after filing a FOIA request, the Medford Police Department’s response, and now public document of the police  report, proved the allegations to be true.

That two small children may have been endangered by their father. The vice president of the Medford City Council,  is a huge matter of public interest for taxpayers/voters, especially in an election cycle. Knight himself, in the weekly paper, downplayed it stating that the biggest story of the month in Medford “isn’t a story.”   A Council Vice President under police investigation is a monster story. That the city council downplayed it by allegedly violating the Open Meeting Law is in line with Knight’s statement to the press, which gives weight to my theory that members of the council and the city clerk are engaged in alleged conspiracy/collusion.

Adam Knight's temperamental and uncivil behavior is legend at the city council, but caught on camera at a bank, as noted in the weekly Transcript May 10, 2021. documents the incident in the mainstream press.

Council President Caraviello has no right to call a paper out of order. See May 4, 2021 OML complaint where Hurtubise molested the petition and wrote fiction in order for Caraviello to intentionally claim a paper out of order.

Furthermore, I asked Caraviello to recuse himself for his massive conflict of interest. Caraviello lied to the MPD about felonious assault by former clerk Ed Finn.  This victim prevailed over Caraviello's lies to the police and possible perjury in court (regarding a question on the Council President's admitted "moonlighting" and leaving the council during a vote.) Unethical Caraviello violated his oath of office, may have fractured Robert's Rules of Order, and as was viewed on May 11 and May 18th during Patricia Brady Doherty's speeches and others, Caraviello cannot maintain order.

The Council becomes a circus under Caraviello with rules broken and the body just making it up as they go along. Other councilors Falco, Marks, Scarpelli, Morell and Bears are equally responsible for not righting the ship and even praising Knight, while fully knowing about the dangerous driving by an elected official, and what the police called "wanton" destruction of bank property.

That alleged witnesses claim Knight's own children were at risk with Knight allegedly speeding and driving wildly, along with the smashing of a glass door and fleeing the scene are details voters/taxpayers deserve to hear about; information of great public interest.

Caraviello and Hurtubise deceived the public, concocted their own petition, Caraviello, failing to recuse himself after losing in criminal court to the petitioner, executed his scheme to pull the fictional paper he and Hurtubise concocted for "90 days," cheating the voters with only 165 days to election day, Nov 2, 2021.

Caraviello's unethical action would give only 75 days for the voters to hear about the council vice president's malfeasance where it is obvious that Caraviello's despicable con job would be backed up another 90 days with the city clerk again defacing the meeting minutes by writing fiction for a petitioner rather than what the petitioner wrote.

The clerk and council president perpetrating a fraud on a community to benefit the council vice president accused of fleeing a bank, allegedly endangering the lives of his children and destroying bank property. 

Caraviello denies 1st Amendment rights he took an oath to uphold. It is malicious, intentional, it is vengeful retaliation for Caraviello losing in criminal court.

Caraviello's actions alter meeting minutes, intentionally fail to let the voters be informed, and benefit Caraviello, Knight and his incumbent colleagues so fresh eyes have less a chance of being elected.

The CORI check at the television station denies candidates for elected office an opportunity to have their own TV show without being scrutinized by those in power.

It's a racket.

The misbehavior is intentional and so pervasive City Hall hopes to sneak around the OML violations because the malfeasance is how business is done with this council. The cycle of chilling speech, denying it, and chilling it again gets more entrenched the more these vulgar elected officials get away with their misbehavior and failure to live up to their oath, their sworn duty, and what the taxpayers pay them for and expect.

Knight and Caraviello specifically have belittled and mocked this petitioner and others. Those in control of the council break the council rules, disrupt council meetings while petitioners are speaking, vote for their own pay raises, and set a pattern of censorship that benefits them and their lust for reelection and the huge paycheck that comes with it, possibly a violation of the State Ethic Commission's rules.

 "The People's Forum" is anything but when Caraviello and Knight antagonize residents and petitioners, and then are caught in alleged criminal activity. Since they are "the power," they laugh at the voters and continue to scheme new fraudulent activities to keep new candidates from having a voice and getting their message out, all the while the city suffers with roads broken, water and sewer deteriorating, and no forum for the public to voice concerns without being fraudulently shut down. They take the bully pulpit, bully their voices only from it, bully residents from having their legitimate turn at the podium. Caraviello also pulls old resolutions out to detain petitioners to the latest possible time so that fewer viewers are still tuned in on the government channel and/or at council chambers.
