Public Records Reqest on Some of Rick Caraviello's Malfeaance - for upcoming radio show, TV show, and massive print article

 Some crazed stalker said she was going to teach me about the First Amendment. She ended up with an HPO (restraining order) on her for four years.  I taught the stalker about Free Speech.

Richard Caraviello's crimes and misdeeds, emphasis on his crimes, have got to be made public.  Let's teach Caraviello about transparency. 

 

The Not Very Transparent Caraviello is a thug and a criminal who abuses Medford residents.
Caraviello needs to be in prison, not the corner office.

Re: Massachusetts Public Records Request regarding City Councilor Richard F Caraviello

Dear Records Officer Spencer, city clerk Adam Hurtubise, Madame Mayor and 

Officer Casey, 

MPD Records Officer, records officer at Caraviello Campaign Headquarters 

and/or City Council President and Vice President: 

This is a request under the Massachusetts Public Records Law 

(M. G. L. Chapter 66, Section 10). 

I am requesting that I be provided a copy of the following records:

1)Mayoral candidate and city councilor Richard F. Caraviello 

is rumored to have been in 

an allegedly irresponsible

boating accident. 

 As this is of great public interest to the Medford voters and taxpayers,  

 

I'm requesting all documents concerning Mr. Caraviello's conduct 

and activities during this tragedy 

be they police reports, newspaper articles, internal documents

at city hall and/or the police department, 911 calls, everything 

concerning the event.  

This is directed to the campaign office of Richard Caraviello, 

Medford Police Dept, 

Medford City Hall, the office of the city council and city clerk.

Mr. Caraviello took an oath of office that he has violated repeatedly.  

Keeper of the Records at the Medford Police and 

City Hall should contact public servant Rick Caraviello if they need the dates, 

however, Mr. Caraviello's office is also on

notice that his office should supply the materials.

An example of the public interest.  Paul Ruseau,

 the former Paul Comeau Jr., 

was a convicted felon prior to running

for the school committee in Medford. 
There was zero transparency until my publication

 revealed Ruseau's imprisonment

and misdeeds, including but probably not limited to theft from a school.  

The irony of a convicted thief who went to prison

for stealing from a school on the powerful 

Medford school committee is an example 

of why highly secretive Caraviello

needs to be transparent, which Caraviello is actually campaigning on 

while mocking Mayor Breanna Lungo Koehn

See Exhibit A (attached) dated June 25, 2023 from Caraviello's campaign 

Facebook page. Fair use copyright of a public

official running for elected office.

Mr. Caraviello, an elected official and alleged public servant, 

is required to comply with this transparency request.

Insurance forms including the amount of money the Caraviello family received 

after the boating incident, date and time

of the event, documents on Richard F Caraviello's behavior, 

all essential for the transparency Caraviello claims is part

of his campaign for mayor - transparency he claims is superior to Mayor Lungo-Koehn's.  

Again, see Exhibit A. (attached) 

regarding Caraviello's claim of being transparent.

2)I request the document that is Mr. Caraviello's oath of office 

as city councilor for the past twelve years

   One document from one of the elections is fine unless the documents 

for oath of office changed over the years.

3)The minutes of the council meeting where all seven councilors

 violated their oath of office, instigated by Rick Caraviello

The city council of Medford voted on the first Council meeting of 2021 t

o deny Viglione the opportunity to speak about

their salaries, a violation of Viglione's civil rights and the oath of office the council took.  

The "transparency" Caraviello is running his campaign on, 

is a lie,

 just as Caraviello committed perjury 

in criminal court 1/31/17.

These documents are essential 

to give the voters information that 

Caraviello is a fraud and his campaign has less truth 

than thrice arrested Donald Trump's. 

Caraviello was the censorship perpetrator but got his six other colleagues 

to spit on their oath of office (which they took that night,) 

Isaac Bruce "Zac" Bears - the councilor in a police report 

when he disturbed the peace, Nicole Morell, Justin Tseng, Kit Collins, 

Adam Knight - the councilor charged with "wanton destruction" by the MPD, 

and George Scarpelli.  

4)Documents requested on Caraviello's interaction with MPD 

when he weaponized MPD to attack a journalist.

On January 31, 2017, Richard Caraviello and his accomplice,

 Detective Sgt. Paul Mackowski lost in criminal court, 

Cambridge District Court.  

Caraviello lied in a police report and was never held accountable because of

 malfeasance by retired  Detective Sergeant Paul Mackowski.  

 

I have that police report.  

What is being requested are internal documents between

 Mackowski and Caraviello, Paul Covino, Kevin Faller and 

any other officers involved in this conspiracy against a journalist.  

 

All the officers named and Mr. Caraviello wasted monies from 

Medford taxpayers and Massachusetts State taxpayers.  

 

 Any e mails between Caraviello and Mackowski and the other MPD offenders, 

notes, text messages which document their wrongful conduct.  

 

Medford voters have a right to know how Caraviello and his 

interactions with the police department cause a clear and present danger 

to Medford residents and their civil rights.  

Police chief Leo A. Sacco Jr., and current chief Jack Buckley never held

 Mackowski (or Caraviello) accountable for their wrongful conduct after they lost in court; 

which the judge was appalled by.  

 

I need all documents regarding this elder abuse and attack on the civil rights 

of a minority person, a same sex person who

 was violently attacked by Edward P. Finn,

 the city clerk of Medford. The voters need to see 

Caraviello's misdeeds and what can happen

 to a citizen when angry

 Caraviello weaponizes the Brady-infested police department

 to harass a journalist.  Also note, after Caraviello's

 spectacular loss in criminal court, 

Caraviello stalked his victim on Salem Street, a second time 

on Salem Street at Littlest Laundry, on Central and on Garfield.  

These documents are essential as 

Viglione is writing  

a lengthy article on why Caraviello 

is unfit to be dog catcher, let alone mayor.

Mr. Caraviello also committed perjury when asked if he ever "moonlighted"

 on the Medford City Council.  Under oath, the mayoral candidate

said "no," when - fact is - when Caraviello failed to vote on a "pay to park" video, 

walked away from the council which was in session, he walked up to Joseph Viglione 

and said that he had to "pick up a client" for his limo service.  

 Even if Caraviello didn't pick up a client, he clearly left the council

while it was in session and - being self-employed -

 it was obvious he was working for his limousine service, not city hall.   

 

Who would want to vote

for a mayor who won't show up for work?  

A)Caraviello walked out of council chambers, failed to do the

 duty as a public servant that he is

paid for, 

B)Caraviello lied under oath to judge and jury regarding his working for

 his own company when the city council was in session.
Moonlighting.

There is great public interest in Mr. Caraviello's bad behavior and his conspiracy 

with violent city clerk Edward P. Finn as well as the MPD's Mackowski, 

Covino and Faller and any fees for these documents must be waived.  

 

 I am developing a television special with this information

 and will hold the mayor's office accountable if the issuing authority,

 Ms Lungo-Koehn, refuses to air the television special.

Mayoral candidate Caraviello's false testimony against the victim - 

a senior violently attacked by clerk Ed Finn, and Mackowski's extortion of the victim:
demanding that Joe Viglione drop the charges against Finn or a phony

 "witness intimidation" charge would be filed on Viglione, was disgusting.

Viglione contacted his lawyer and dropped the charges on advice of counsel.  

 

In December Mackowski filed the phony charges, ostensibly because he was 

aggravated by a public records request regarding the then mayor, 

Muccini-Burke, and allegations of a sex crime at the Medford High School.

 

As usual, Viglione prevailed and 

it was another black eye on the 

Brady-infested Medford Police Dept. 

The judge seemed to be very angry with Mackowski and Caraviello's  

wrongful conduct and dismissed the phony, frivolous case, the malicious

abuse of process designed by Caraviello and Mackowski.  

The citizens need to know this prior to an election for every citizen

 and taxpayer is

at risk with a maniac like Caraviello weaponizing the 

Brady-infested police department to go after his enemies, 

like Richard Nixon on steroids.

This public records request is essential for voters

 to see bad behavior by Caraviello

 and a failure to return the information in a 

timely fashion will be noted in my writings 

and on the TV and radio specials I am preparing on Election 2023.  

My radio show airs once a week, but I have it on platforms on the internet 

for the public to access at any time.

It gets even more revolting, the MPD harassed Viglione repeatedly after Viglione 

helped get the videotape which solved the crime at Tony's gas, 

helped the MPD with catching the perpetrators of the smashed window at the dental office 

on Salem Street, and when the MPD was given a floppy disc this

reporter received from a confidential informant regarding a

 fifteen year old from a pizza business in Medford allegedly 

used in a porn video that was hushed up by the police. 

 

Hushed up ostensibly to protect a friend of Mayor McGlynn's.  

This notation is pertinent as it seems ex mayor McGlynn is behind the Caraviello campaign.  

These misdeeds need to be on the public record as the MPD and city hall

 have been less than transparent in these requests

for documents, though Viglione has prevailed most of the time.   

Viglione will also urge the public to file a public records request to

obtain this record request and its responses. 

 The public has a serious right to know about the candidates running for mayor.

That the Medford Police were seemingly afraid 

of an alleged sex offender 

alleged friend of McGlynn's -

 the ex mayor who is the alleged force behind 

the current Caraviello campaign,  and did NOTHING 

to protect the 15 year old victim

 is the very flower of MPD misconduct.  

Essentially, the MPD and Caraviello care nothing 

about a sexually abused 15 year old 

and, instead, waste time attacking a journalist 

and costing him thousands of dollars in legal fees.  

 The public needs to know how dangerous 

Caraviello is when engaging 

with a corrupt police force 

(see L'Italien Report or Viglione's revelation of 117 cops

 on the Brady list he obtained from D.A. Marian Ryan's office, 

published in Modern Cop Magazine.)

I recognize that you may charge reasonable costs for copies, as well as for 

personnel time needed to comply with this request but as stated

above, they are of great public interest and the fees must be waived. 

We don't want another convicted felon incident like Paul Comeau Jr. 

masquerading as Paul Ruseau 

so that the public is not informed in a timely fashion on Ruseau's bad behavior.   

 

Mr. Caraviello is one of the least transparent politicians in Medford,

 so he lies on his Facebook page about transparency, 

which is why these documents are so very important 

during an election cycle,

 the most protected speech in America.

The Public Records Law requires you to provide me 

with a written response within 10 business days. If you cannot comply 

with my request, you are statutorily required to provide an explanation in writing.

Please send the documents via e mail, or

 I am happy to pick them up at Janice Spencer's law office in City Hall.

Sincerely and respectfully,

Joe Viglione
