Remember when Deval Patrick removed Uncle Gene McGillicuddy from the board of the Medford Housing Authority after my camera got Uncle Gene to tell us that he was the Mayor's uncle and that he was appointed by Deval Patrick?

Unethical abuse of a board of directors, an E.D. attempting to influence who goes on the board when the board of directors is the hiring authority, is ugly.

There's something called the PUBLIC TRUST and that TRUST is violated when cronyism sets in rather than crop rotation.

We're not going to reveal who the individual is, but reports are being filed with government agencies as you read this.

Trust me: removing a member from a Housing Authority board of directors is a LOT harder than removing cronyism at an access TV station, I don't care how many puff pieces the individual in question wrote after the death of the crooked sheriff in order to get - allegedly - into the good graces of a dead sheriff's crony

In 2017, the Boston real estate developer sought to sell a parcel of residential real estate in Boston, but needed ZBA approval to extend a permit that would have allowed the property to be sold as a multi-unit development.  To get the permit extension, the developer agreed to pay $50,000 in cash bribes and a check to Lynch, in return for Lynch using his influence at the BPDA to secure a vote from a ZBA member. The permit extension helped the real estate developer realize an additional half million dollars in profits that the developer otherwise would not have received absent the permit.  After getting the permit extension, Lynch accepted $25,000 in cash payments and another $25,000 check, which Lynch used to pay a personal bill.  Lynch then failed to report those and another $10,000 payment he had received from the real estate developer.
