Methuen Police Blotter

A Call to Action

2009-11-06T16:05:00.002-05:00

Chief Lavigne,

Rather than try to take personal revenge against members of your own department because of this Blog, why not show everyone what is fair is fair and immediately investigate the cover up of the actions of members of your department in reference to Case # 366718, Case #366795 and Case #379217.

You should remember these are all public records and you can not discipline anyone for speaking about these reports or reporting on them.

You should put out a questionnaire on who covered up these blatant violations of Massachusetts General Law. You did take an oath to uphold the law, didn't you?

Salvo Grand Jury Hears Testimony

2009-11-06T15:55:00.001-05:00

On Friday October 30th testimony into the corruption in Methuen was heard by members of the Essex County Grand Jury. The testimony scheduled for Wednesday November 4th, was postponed until Wednesday November 11th.

Stay tunes for updates!

Violation of the 1st Amendment to the US constitution - 2nd Offense

2009-11-06T15:50:00.001-05:00

Chief Lavigne is at it again folks. She has written an order, ordering all sworn members of the Methuen Police department to answer several questions about this Blog. However, because she knows that her order is a violation of the 1st Amendment to the United States Constitution, A violation of the Massachusetts Police Officers Bill of Rights, an unfair labor practice, a violation of the Massachusetts State Ethics law Chapter 268A and an illegal order she will not give a copy of the order out. Instead she utilized the Gestapo (Private Police) tactics of the prior administration by sending her henchmen superior officers in force to attend roll calls and intimidate officers.

It is very clear that Mayor 'Moneybags' Manzi has wasted no time in retaliating against the police officers for not supporting him. This was done on Wednesday the days after he just narrowly won reelection. Unfortunately, everyone is going to pay for his poor showing at the polls.

These questions are a precursor to the upcoming polygraph (the old black box)exams to be administered by a member of the Haverhill Police Department. Another violation of your rights.

This type of behavior is not new see the post below.

The Kiss of Death

2009-11-06T15:33:00.001-05:00

Evidently Councilor Joe Leone was unaware what the public thought of the narcissistic bully Sgt. Phillips, before he accepted and publicized the Sergeants political endorsement of him.

Sorry Joe but he cost you the election. However, you can now file an ethics complaint against him because utilizing his title as a police sergeant to endorse a political candidate in his city is a violation of the Massachusetts Ethics Law Chapter 268A, when will the boyz learn. I guess never.

Salvo Grand Jury in Full Swing

2009-11-01T14:33:00.001-05:00

The Essex County Grand Jury that was established to investigate the corruption that has routed itself in Methuen since January of 2006 is being lead by Essex County District Attorney Jonathan Blodgetts right hand man First Assistant District Attorney Jack Dawley.

On Wednesday October 28 and Thursday October 29th ‘crack’ (Hun Intended) Detective Sgt. Himmer of the Methuen Police Department along with various MPD detectives, FBI agents from the Boston office and criminal investigator from the Massachusetts office of the Inspector General swooped into Methuen at 5:30 am and served Grand Jury summonses and at least one search warrant. The summonses were served to various businesses for witness testimony and the City of Methuen for financial records. These summons and the search warrant are in relation to the Grand Jury investigation into bid rigging and kickbacks that involved the Methuen DPW and the former business agent for the Methuen School Department Joseph Salvo.

On Friday October 30th Sgt, Himmer and one contractor testified before the Grand Jury, further testimony is scheduled for Wednesday November 4th.

Many of my loyal readers are asking why the local press is not reporting on this. A little birdie told me a very powerful politician who sports one gonad has suppressed the stories.

WARNING Hazardous to your Health

2009-11-01T14:31:00.001-05:00

Lt. Perjurer, AKA Lt. Q-Ball (new one) please beware of the hazards around you.

Warning the use of steroids can cause the following:

1. Rapid Loss of hair

2. Shrinking of the Gonads

3. Loss of cognitive ability

Warning being subservient to Mayor ‘Moneybags’ Manzi can cause the following:

1. Rapid Loss of hair

2. Shrinking of the Gonads

3. Loss of cognitive ability

Combining these two can cause irreparable harm!

Chief Surrounds herself with another questionable appointment!

2009-11-01T14:21:00.001-05:00

One must wonder why Chief Lavigne surrounds herself with individuals who have such serious skeletons in their closet. In addition to her prior hat trick she assigned Sgt. Himmer to lead the Salvo investigation?

· Could it be because he will do whatever she and Mayor ‘Moneybags’ Manzi wants?
· Could it be because he was willing to allow the Salvo investigation to linger so long?
· Could it be because he might not notice he is being used as a pawn?
· Could it be because he is a ‘crack’ Detective Sergeant?
· Could it be because he helped keep quiet the wheelbarrows full of school department
property that were recovered from Mr. Salvo’s house?
· It can’t be because he is known as Sgt. Himmler around the PD
· It can’t be because of his infamous quote “Hitler had the right idea just the wrong race”
· It can’t be because he was sued for violating the civil rights of an attorney of color
and cost the City of Methuen $250,000

This is HOT, HOT, HOT ................. Mayor 'Moneybags' Manzi looses a big one

2009-10-29T12:53:00.002-04:00

Lt. Wnek is already trying to pay Mayor 'Moneybags' Manzi back in a big way. Too bad Lt. Wnek does not have the competence to get an endorsement through.

Lt. Wnek attempted to get the Methuen Police Superior Officers to endorse Mayor 'Moneybags' Manzi for his re-election bid and it FAILED in a big way.

Nice try Lt.

This Just In …………………Read All About It……….

2009-10-29T12:48:00.001-04:00

It seems that Chief Lavigne has picked Lt. Wnek to head detectives in spite of the past six months of shall we say Lieutenant to Patrolman persuasion to influence the outcome of three serious offenses involving the Lieutenants family member. I smell additional ethics violation complaints forthcoming. When will the administration stop encouraging these types of behaviors? Please see for yourself. If you would like the incidents listed below include case numbers and date, feel free to go to the PD and request a copy of all three reports. However, the Hit and Run report is m marked as a preliminary report therefore, preventing it from being printed (An old trick, that old dogs know about)

Let me recap the incidents for you:

1) 03/22/09 8:51 PM, Case # 366718, Uniform Crime Report: Assault & Battery (From the facts you will see the label should be Assault & Battery with a Dangerous Weapon)

The 20-year-old female victim reported that while jogging at the intersection of Currier and Washington St in Methuen, at approximately 5:55 pm she was struck in the left side of her HEAD, with a Wendy’s cup that had ice in it.

As a result of an investigation Lt. Wnek’s son admitted to striking the woman in the HEAD with a cup filled with ice.

A hearing was setup at Lawrence District Court for Assault & Battery.

Even though these facts constitute a felony Assault & Battery charge that normally a person would be arrested for and charged appropriately. This resulted in a Misdemeanor hearing request. I won’t even get into whom the lawyer that represented him was; I think that would be too much to swallow all at once.

-----------------------------

Now one would think getting one break is enough, NO not in Methuen.

2) 03/23/09 9:53 PM, Case #366795, Uniform Crime Report: Assault & Battery (From the facts you will see the label should be Assault & Battery with a Dangerous Weapon, on a victim sixty or older)

Yes, readers as hard as this is to believe it happened again the next day. You would think once the police caught you on Sunday night you wouldn’t do the same thing on Monday night. Well I guess you where WRONG!

The 71-year-old male victim (YES the victim is 71-years old) reported while walking at about 5:00 PM he had a Wendy’s cup that had ice in it thrown at him and it struck him in the chin. The victim related that this happened to him also on Saturday when a Wendy’s cup full of ice was thrown at him. Later on the victim related feeling soreness in his neck.

As a result of an investigation a motor vehicle was stopped and suspects where identified and two juveniles where charged in juvenile court. (Excellent police work)

During the investigation the officer spoke with Lt. Wnek’s son in reference to the Assault by means of a Dangerous Weapon on the 71-year old victim that had occurred on Saturday. Lt. Wnek’s son stated to the officer “I was in the car and I did hit somebody with it”. He further again acknowledged throwing the cup of ice at the 71-year old victim.

This may seem unbelievable but after being caught on Sunday night for striking the female victim, Lt. Wnek’s son admitted to an Assault & Battery with a Dangerous Weapon on a victim sixty or older (This is a felony which shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than five years or by a fine of not more than one thousand dollars or imprisonment in jail for not more than two and one-half years) and as hard as it is to believe NO charges where brought against him.

-----------------------------

3) 09/11/09:49 PM, Case #379217, Uniform Crime Report: MV-Accident Hit & Run With Personal Injury

The 25-year old male victim reports that while traveling down Elm St in Methuen at 9:20 PM a vehicle swerved into his lane and struck his vehicle. The other MV stopped and the operator said, “There is no damage” and he drove off. The officer observed visible damage to the victim’s motor vehicle. As a result of the victim obtaining the plate number and description of the vehicle and suspect. Lt. Wnek’s son was located and he admitted to sticking the other motor vehicle.

No charges where sought (AGAIN) for leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident, rather an accident report was filed.

It does not take a genius to see the preferential treatment that these cases received. With the reserve police officer and firefighter hiring fiasco, it is very clear that the City of Methuen has a policy of nepotism and protection of their own. It is now very clear why you would want Lt. Wnek running the detective division; no corrupt stone will ever be looked under.

-----------------------------

Take a moment to think my loyal readers, after pondering does this not smell like a cover-up. Chief Lavigne the citizens of Methuen call upon you to take your head out of the sand and start to gain control over the rogue (sound familiar) officers who are destroying the little moral that is left. I hate to say it but the glass ceiling has been shattered and it is raining down upon all of us.

-----------------------------

The Massachusetts Law is here for your reference:
CHAPTER 265. CRIMES AGAINST THE PERSON

Chapter 265: Section 15B. Assault with dangerous weapon; victim sixty or older; punishment; subsequent offenses

Section 15B. (a) Whoever, by means of a dangerous weapon, commits an assault upon a person sixty years or older, shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than five years or by a fine of not more than one thousand dollars or imprisonment in jail for not more than two and one-half years.
Whoever, after having been convicted of the crime of assault upon a person sixty years or older, by means of a dangerous weapon, commits a second or subsequent such crime, shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than two years. Said sentence shall not be reduced until one year of said sentence has been served nor shall the person convicted be eligible for probation, parole, furlough, work release or receive any deduction from his sentence for good conduct until he shall have served one year of such sentence; provided, however, that the commissioner of correction may, on the recommendation of the warden, superintendent, or other person in charge of a correctional institution, or the administrator of a county correctional institution, grant to said offender a temporary release in the custody of an officer of such institution for the following purposes only: to attend the funeral of next of kin or spouse; to visit a critically ill close relative or spouse; or to obtain emergency medical services unavailable at said institution. The provisions of section eighty-seven of chapter two hundred and seventy-six relative to the power of the court to place certain offenders on probation shall not apply to any person seventeen years of age or over charged with a violation of this subsection.
For the purposes of prosecution, a conviction obtained under subsection (a) of section fifteen A or paragraph (a) of section 18 shall count as a prior criminal conviction for the purpose of prosecution and sentencing as a second or subsequent conviction.
(b) Whoever, by means of a dangerous weapon, commits an assault upon another shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than five years or by a fine of not more than one thousand dollars or imprisonment in jail for not more than two and one-half years.

Sgt some asssitance for you

2009-10-13T16:04:00.000-04:00

Lar,
I know you are a wiz at 'DOS' based computer systems but this newfangled windows systems are a bit different, let alone the forensic knowledge one needs today to be a good investigator. I am sure the training you recently had will assist you somewhat, but this may make it easier for you. One of the servers I post from is located at 205.178.190.7. Once you trace this take a moment to think back in history and you should be well on your way.

Sgt. Phillips Solves 1st case as the Forensics Investigator

2009-10-13T15:58:00.002-04:00

On Thursday night while patrolling in the coveted red undercover car the Sgt turned onto High St and he had an epiphany . He immediately returned to his new office and he feverishly typed out his first report.

TO: Chief Lavigne

FR: Sgt. Phillips

SB: Violation of MPD Rules & Regulations – Dispensing Police Information

Dear Chief,

As I was aimlessly driving around tonight deciding whom I should harass I remembered that last year I met with Ellen Bahan on High St and I provided her with police department records involving members of the Methuen Police Department. Additionally I have on numerous occasions called news reporters and provided them with inside information and copies of police investigations with the intent of causing disruption to the MPD, stress and embarrassment to the members of the MPD with the hope of leading to an untenable situation (Mayor ‘Moneybags’ gave me that one). I have not stopped this undermining and I continue to report information to make the department look bad.

Having reported this to you I would also like to remind you that I have received a no discipline pass from Mayor “Moneybags” Manzi and there is nothing you can do to me. This is evident by the new position I have been assigned by Mayor "Moneybags" and by the past complaints made against me where I have not only NOT been disciplined but I received overtime to participate in the investigation and the hearings that I was the subject of. (Public information request forthcoming)

In closing please be advised that I will continue my subversive activities indefinitely, because this is what a bully does. I do however appreciate the plush position and the extra benefit of receiving a shift differential of 8%. I pledge to continue my activities of the past and I hope that they prolong the misery of everyone I work with.

Respectfully,

Sgt. Lawrence “Bully” Phillips

BREAKING NEWS – WATCH YOUR BACKS THEY ARE ON THE HUNT:

Sgt. Phillips transferred to a Monday thru Friday schedule with shify differential as Captain Fram’s assistant. So in a year when the city budgets were cut by 10% and city employees received significant pay cuts the police department still has enough extra superior officers to assign an assistant to the assistant to the Chief of Police. OMG, when will this insanity end? If this can be done then there is an extra Sergeant and this position should be eliminated and the savings returned to the citizens of Methuen. The truth is this transfer is to allow the Sgt. To hunt down the Blogger full time.

Captain, remember having the Sgt. Work on tracking this Blog is definitely for your personal gain and reeks of another Ethics violation. Another phone call to the State Ethics Commission, I encourage anyone with information about abuses of authority to call the Intake Investigator at the state ethics commission at (617) 371-9500 or (888) 485-4766 or file by mail at

State Ethics Commission
Enforcement Division
One Ashburton Place, Room 619

http://www.mass.gov/?pageID=ethhomepage&L=1&L0=Home&sid=Ieth

Captain again to remind you I do not work for the city, I do not conduct business with the city and therefore you have no way of intimidating me or holding something over my head. Interestingly the Boston Globe slander lawsuit showed that even when something written is known to be untrue and it is about a public official that public official has a diminished expectation of privacy and therefore the action is unactionable (the definition for you…. not justifying a lawsuit, not actionable).

However, this doe not apply here because everything written here is accurate, true and factual.

I am starting to think that there is something wrong with the badge #’s C01 and C02; it appears to be de ja vu. Captain maybe if your ego was not so big you would have stayed with C10 and been better off.

In the words of a woman who predicted many of the goings on at the MPD, Bad Boy and Bad Girl, What You Gonna Do When They Come For You.

Watch for yourself, Lt. Cubby is there with his McGruff costume.

My Prediction: Within the next 24 hours officers will be targeted and questioned about menial issues unrelated to this Blog, with the intent of instilling FEAR and ANXIETY. This is known as creating a hostile working environment. The following links will provide the employees with valuable information:

Thank you for the emails and the sound bites, they were very informative.

It may be hard sometimes to play Sgt Schultz but Chief Lavigne is a natural at it. Her attendance at last night's patrolman's meeting only served to show how out of touch with reality she is. She does not have any answers, she could not provide a list of alternatives she came up with to prevent layoffs, and she attended the meeting completely unprepared and showed her lack of communication skills. She had no answers relative to the lack of equipment and she did not even know that a computer printer caught on fire!!!!

Her actions only furthered the renewal of calls for a SECOND vote of NO CONFIDENCE.

As the Mayor would say

Freedom of Speech

2009-10-04T15:34:00.002-04:00

Captain,
I suggest you review the MGL's and the Constitution of the United States next time you decide to send out an email meant to quell the ability of government workers free speech.

MGL C66 S10 (Applies to the employer and those responsibly for the public record, not to other individuals.).The relevant part of the law is below. Feel free to click on the link to read the law in its entirety.The home address and home telephone number of law enforcement, judicial, prosecutorial, department of youth services, department of social services, department of correction and any other public safety and criminal justice system personnel, and of unelected general court personnel, shall not be public records in the custody of the employers of such personnel

http://www.mass.gov/legis/laws/mgl/66-10.htm

Captain you should be well aware of what constitutes violating someone’s civil rights. You would think after being sued by Attorney Wright and losing $250,000. You would think twice before stepping outside of the law.

Although I do not condone making public a police officers address I do believe that all actions must comply with the law.

I do hope that the time Sgt. Phillips is spending in the computer forensics room is on his own time and not time being paid for by the city. His work is solely for your personal gain, which would constitute an ethics violation. Now you do not want another one so close to the last do you?

Unfortunately due to sever internal management and political threats the prior posts have been removed. (JJ a freedom of information request for all emails to MPD sworn employees will reveal some interesting and stiffling information)

I guess we do not live in a free America where 'our' 1st amendment rights are not trampled.

Some people can mask their identity by utilizing municipal vehicles like a red Chevrolet Malibu and the rest of the ordinary citizen's are held to a higher standard.

Sgt. nice work in the forensics room...try tagging Y4W3821 and you might be surprised. If you are good you will get it.

The public is free to post responses and share what you know.

For now 'we' must be silent so that our brothers and sisters are not harassed.

Breaking News-Do Not Speak To The PRESS or Anyone Else

2009-09-19T18:21:00.007-04:00

Per Order of Captain Fram,
The 'Executer' Captain to the Chief of Police

I Hereby, order all members of the police department to remain silent and not communicate any information to the press or the public, either directly verbally or in writing or by a third party. Anyone who does this shall be brought up on department charges.

Any member of the department who provides information that directly benefits the chief, Mayor Manzi, or me is Hereby, issued an exemption to this rule.

You must do as I say and not as my followers or I do!

Methuen chief hopes to 'work things out' with patrolmen's union

2009-09-18T14:22:00.002-04:00

http://www.eagletribune.com/punews/local_story_261005939.html?dsq=16883168#comment-16883168

Methuen chief hopes to 'work things out' with patrolmen's union
Lavigne happy patrolmen dropped 'no confidence' vote

METHUEN — Police Chief Katherine Lavigne said she welcomes more dialogue with the Methuen patrolmen's union after members didn't follow through on a no confidence vote against her.

There are many issues all the police department employees have with Chief Lavigne. The overwhelming issue that comes up continually is that you cannot believe anything she says. A perfect example of this is her statement "I'm happy they didn't take the vote, and I do believe we can work things out," Lavigne said in an interview last night.

This is another lie, the vote was taken at the meeting on 09/08/09 and the vote was not rescinded or recalled at the meeting, which was held on 09/17/09, therefore, the vote of no confidence stands. She can spin this anyway she wants to but the fact is the vote was taken and it was unanimous.

A short list of some of the concerns with Chief Lavigne:

· She lied under oath at the civil service commission hearing on the improper hiring of family members. "There is strong circumstantial evidence to suggest that the decision to request and review the names of candidates in Band 8 was an attempt to ensure consideration of five candidates, ultimately chosen for selection, that had family ties to Methuen officials, including the police chief's niece and her niece's fiancÃ©," Bowman wrote. "At almost every step in the process, the city either ignored or failed to follow the requirements of reviewing and selecting candidates for the civil service position of reserve police officer," Civil Service Commission Chairman Christopher Bowman wrote in the report to be released today. http://www.eagletribune.com/archivesearch/local_story_233010623.html

· Inability to believe anything she says.

· She allowed police officers to be pressured to attend the union meeting on 09/17/09 to attempt to show support for her. This bullying behavior has been going on over the last two years with her knowledge and encouragement.

· Nepotism not only in hiring but also in job placement.

· Lack of ability to LEAD.

· Favoritism for those on 'the team' and ostracizing of those 'Who just want to do their jobs'

· Inability to make a decision!

· Lack of concern for officer safety and security.

· Failure to support officers.

· General degrading of moral in the police department.

· Failure to investigate properly the citizen complaint made against Lt. Wnek.

· The cover-up investigation of Sgt. Phillips assault on a patrolman. The suppression of reports and evidence during the investigation.

· Allowing Sgt. Phillips to bully and harass PD employees especially females.

· Failure to protect female employees from harassment who have confided in her.

More to come.

Captain Fram's private treasure chest of overtime:

2009-09-17T16:50:00.003-04:00

Captain Fram's private treasure chest of overtime:
1. NEMLEC overtime
2. SWAT overtime
3. Haverhill drug “grant” overtime

Boy this looks like Weed and Seed reborn!

Captain we see you, Let’s see Captain arrives at work on Wednesday morning at 8:30 am, Captain pays himself NEMLEC overtime from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm and never leaves the PD. Captain scheduled to work his regular shift from 12:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Captain goes home at 6:00 pm. Captain repeats this next Wednesday and next Wednesday and next Wednesday…….

Captain, didn’t you see the car following you home on these days when you where double-dipping and ripping off the citizens, did you forget the camera system and the tracking system in your cruiser?

Maybe, a public information request for your overtime records and hours worked records will shed some light on this misappropriation of public funds…This remind me of what you use to say the other captains did. Different when the shoe is on your foot.

Yes we all know you fled Methuen to your new home in Merrimack Ma. Your house is beautiful, but it is so far away.

As you would say “I can beat up 95% of the US male population”, Hu_rah !

Lets see what we have:
· Loyal follower of Lt. Smurf (Mike Hatem)
· Loyal follower of Mr. Dry Cleaner (Dick True)
· Loyal follower of Mayor Manzi
· Lt. Sailboat, I go anyway the wind is blowing
· It’s not me; Sgt. Bully made me do it.
· ‘Fist to the heart’
· Cookie, Jennifer, Mary, Lisa, Maritza, Sue, Maria, etc….U get it.
· You don’t know what it was like in the ‘old Lawrence jail’
· If you aren’t a felon don’t come callin.

Please tell us what you, Dick and Chief Kathi where doing in Miami? Smoking cigars maybe? Some hanky panky with Dickey and Kathi? Does Mama Dry Cleaner know what goes on in Miami?

There has been a significant amount of stress, pressure and manipulation exerted on the fine men and women at the Methuen Police Department by Mayor Manzi and his administration at the PD. The time has come to reject this dictatorship form of leadership that Mayor Manzi has brought to the City of Methuen and the Methuen Police Department.
The vote of ‘No Confidence’ in Chief Lavigne taken by the Methuen Police Patrolman’s union is the first step to standing up to this regime.

The cover-ups and abuses of the system by Chief Lavigne and Captain Fram need to be exposed.
