MAY 2017
On Friday, April 14th the Selectman of the Town of Brookline voted to terminate Brookline Police Officers Prentice Pilot and Estifanos Zeri-Misgun. These officers took the courageous act of coming forward reporting racism from their colleagues within the Brookline Police Department. We along with the Lawyers Committee of Civil Rights and Economic Justice will stand by them and fight along side them. As we always say today it's them tomorrow it could be you.
I would like to thank Mayor Martin Walsh and Police Commissioner William Evans for taking time out of their busy schedules to be our guests on @ The Round Table with MAMLEO. We hope that this will open up dialogue between all parties. We may not always agree but at least come to the table to work things out.
We also want to say congratulations to Neil Sicard on being accepted into the Salem Police Reserves. We were very happy to help, and we wish you well.
The Mayoral race is now in full swing with City Councilor Tito Jackson, Mary Franklin, Donald Osgood and Christopher G. Womack challenging Mayor Walsh. MAMLEO does not endorse any candidate. Our Radio broadcast program @ The Round Table with MAMLEO will make make every effort to interview all the candidates to give the community an opportunity to hear their platform and to take part in their discussions. We wish them all well in their quest for elected office.
New York has put together a jobs program to the tune of $10 million for newly released prisoners that will come out of taxpayers monies and not employers. The program is expected to be in place by the end of this year and drive down the City's inmate population. It is said that supporters of this program say transitional jobs such as kitchen, construction and other jobs paying minimum wages are an excellent place to start in that inmates with these jobs are less liklely to re-offend. I would be interested in posing this question to our candidates to see if this type of program would be suitable in Massachusetts.
Lastly, this newsletter has always had an "open" policy. If you have something you would like to share, we are more than willing to accommodate your piece. We don't always want to write about the Department. Fictional articles, humor, anonymous pieces make for great reading.
