Page 14 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, July 15, 2022 RESNEK | FROM PAGE 1 and Philbin about the mayor. “But there would be hundreds of emails between you and him regarding Mr. DeMaria in some fashion, correct? asked Robbins. “Regarding the news,” said Resnek. “I know regarding the news, but regarding Mr. DeMaria?” asked DeMaria’s attorney. “Well, he is the news,” replied Resnek. “Okay. As far as the paper is concerned, Mr. DeMaria is the news?” Robbins asked again. “Yes, sir,” confirmed Resnek. Robbins then asked Resnek how many times he emailed or texted Philbin over the last five years regarding potential stories about DeMaria; Resnek said at least a couple of hundred times, but not just about the mayor. The attorney then stated that he and Philbin hadn’t produced a single email between the two and only a single day of texts. Resnek claimed he didn’t know that and didn’t conduct a search of emails between himself and Philbin relating to DeMaria in connection with the lawsuit. Resnek then stated that some forensic people working for his attorney had taken 26,000 emails from his computer. (With respect to the electronic communications, as reported by the Everett Advocate last week, the defendants must turn over within two weeks all unredacted emails, texts and phone records by the Everett Leader Herald newspaper, Matthew Philbin and Andrew Philbin, Sr., and Joshua Resnek related to the current lawsuit.

Frederick Cafasso Chairman Everett Planning Board July 15, 22, 2022 ported sources, according to a judgment by Middlesex Superior Court Judge James Budreau dated June 30, 2022.) Notes that aren’t notes Robbins’ questioning returned back to Resnek’s notebook that contained his notes about the 2020 Corey St. property deal between DeMaria and Sergio Cornelio – making changes two or three times and still writing the wrong information after he learned he was being sued in Oct. 2021. “But you wrote down dates for things that were supposedly said to you that were completely incorrect, right? asked Robbins. “They proved to be incorrect, yes,” stated the Leader Herald’s journalist. Resnek was then asked about quotes in his notebook, such as “September delivery, September 2nd , 11:30,” which would be his claim of when he met City Clerk Cornelio outside his City Hall office while delivering papers, which he admitted he wrote in his notebook after he was sued. “Ethics filing doubtful”, “I was broke at end” and “Sergio, he wants my job” were other examples of notes that Resnek admitted weren’t originally in the notebook but were written after being sued. “So now we know that it’s not just dates that you went back in and changed, but it’s actually substantive material that you wrote – went back and wrote in after the lawsuit was filed, correct?” Resnek answered, “Yes, sir,” then admitted that his information, such as the Sept. 11 date, was actually false. In previous testimony, Resnek claimed that the quotes were attributed to Matthew Philbin, but he has since recanted his statement, saying they were not “exact quotes” by his boss, calling the quotes “sum and substance” statements made by Philbin and all his witnesses collectively. Robbins asked Resnek if the and/ quotes were from Cornelio given to Philbin; Resnek stated they were and were written by him but then admitted that there weren’t any notes of any quotes from Cornelio that he had stated in previous testimony. “They’re not exact quotes given to me by Mr. Philbin,” statQuestions and ed Resnek. “And they’re not quotes that Mr. Cornelio gave you either?” asked Robbins. “That is correct,” replied Resnek. On a search through the pages of the notebook, Resnek – along with Robbins and Resnek’s Attorney, Bernie Guekguezian – is shown notes that Frederick Cafasso Chairman Everett Planning Board July 15, 22, 2022 he admits, again, were written after the lawsuit was filed. Robbins then asked Resnek if he knew that his notes used in preparation of his articles were going to be used as evidence in the lawsuit; he said he did. Resnek then admitted the evidence he was turning over to counsel for the lawsuit contained notes he created after the lawsuit was filed against him. Unaware of the truth “You knew in 2020 that Mr. DeMaria and Mr. Cornelio were jointly involved in the Corey St. property, correct?” asked Robbins. “No, I didn’t,” responded Resnek. Resnek said that he wasn’t aware of the property deal until August or September of 2021. Robbins then showed Resnek Exhibit 28 with, an article written by Resnek in June 2020 with the headline “The mayor is doing a deal with a city official” - The mayor’s Blue Suit. Asked if it was an article written by him 15 months before he wrote the Sept. 2021 articles that are at the center of the lawsuit about the DeMaria/Cornelio joint venture on Corey Street, Resnek declared, “It’s from The Blue Suit.” “Okay, so if it’s from a Martian, you’re writing this entire article about the Corey Street project that Mr. DeMaria and Mr. Cornelio had gone into together; you’re writing about it in June of 2020, correct?” asked the attorney. “Yes, it is,” replied the reporter. Resnek stated that he only had anecdotal information about the Corey Street property deal, claiming that it was a fictional piece, but Robbins walked Resnek through his article which discloses facts about the property deal. Again, Resnek admitted to knowing all the facts about the property deal back in June 2020, disputing his previous testimony under oath. “So beginning no later than June of 2020, you had the information about the fact that Mr. DeMaria and Mr. Cornelio RESNEK | SEE PAGE 15 LEGAL NOTICE CITY OF EVERETT, MASSACHUSETTS PLANNING BOARD PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Public Hearing on an application by Greystar East Development, LLC Property located at: 1690 Revere Beach Parkway In accordance with the provisions of M.G.L Chapter 41, Sections 81K-81GG and the City of Everett Planning Board Rules and Regulations Governing the Subdivision of Land, the Everett Planning Board will conduct a public hearing on Monday, August 1, 2022 at 6:00PM in the Speaker George Keverian Room (Room 37, Everett City Hall) to consider the above-listed application for approval of a Definitive Subdivision Plan.
