POLICE REPORT IN MEDFORD CITING THE DISTURBING OF THE PEACE BY CITY COUNCILOR ZAC BEARS PRE ELECTION DAY: Everett city councilor faces judge after female councilor accuses him of indecent assault

The latest in a spate of sexual and racial allegations, and bruising political conflicts that are roiling the city.  Everett Police have warned Le to stay away from two dry cleaning operations in the city after female workers alleged he was harassing them, police reports show.

In January, the owner of Sal’s Custom Dry Cleaners reported that Le had made two female employees feel uncomfortable over the past year, asking them for dates or hugs. They also alleged he made comments such as, “I am a councilman, I can’t get a discount?” the report said.

In February, police called Le to warn he was trespassing at Sal’s Custom Dry Cleaners and at a local tailor, where an employee alleged he made vulgar statements and that she was “fearful” of him, according to another report.

When interviewed, Le asked police “if these businesses were to come in front of his council, could he vote no as some sort of retaliation,” according to the police report. Le did not respond to requests for comment from the Globe.  https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/04/29/metro/everett-city-councilor-faces-judge-after-female-councilor-accuses-him-indecent-assault/
