Representing the mayor, Atty. Jeffrey Robbins opened the third deposition asking Philbin to elaborate on a May 5, 2021, email between himself and Resnek, where Resnek brags about his enjoyment as publisher of the newspaper, writing, “I’m going to run this guy out of offi ce,” referring to the mayor, and taking credit for the mayor having two opponents, Fred Capone and Guerline Alcy, in the Sept. 2021 primary. “I am the single cause of these two running against him. What a pleasure. Today I deliver stores [sic] throughout the city like a lumber [sic] like the shit head I am and again I love doing that. My delivery team will be going door to door. The mayor cannot beat my door-to-door messaging,” writes Resnek. In the same email, Resnek boasts to Philbin about the payoff he will make in support of their yellow journalism. “Then tomorrow at eight at a place called the Sunrise Cafe on Main Street in Everett, a friend of one of the two people running against the mayor will meet me for breakfast. I will treat him to breakfast and he will invite me out to his car, a Mercedes. He will open the trunk and point, and I will reach into the trunk and take away a beautiful package, a thick almost heavy envelope licked shut with $2,000 in $20 bills stacked neatly inside. A very nice morning. I will do this every week until the September primary to aid his man in winning,” writes the corrupt reporter. “Did you know that Mr. Resnek was having meetings and receiving cash?” asked the attorney. Philbin answered that he wasn’t aware of Resnek’s breakfast meetings but stated he was very much aware that the newspaper desperately needed funding to publish extra copies and cover delivery costs for the 2021 mayoral primary and general elections. Philbin said he couldn’t recall any meetings by Resnek at the Sunrise Café in Everett. When asked if he knew a local Everett businessman named John Mattuchio, Philbin stated he knew of him, saying Resnek may have mentioned his name.

I want to thank Senate President Karen E. Spilka, Chair Rodrigues, the Ways and Means staff , and all my colleagues for a budget that will keep Massachusetts economically competitive and welcoming for people across all backgrounds and incomes.” “This budget represents a major step forward for our Commonwealth, particularly in making higher education more affordable and more accessible to everyone,” stated Senate President Karen E. Spilka (D-Ashland). “Tuition equity, free community college for nursing students and students 25 and older, and laying the groundwork for free universal community college starting next fall—all part of Sal DiDomenico State Senator the Senate’s Student Opportunity Plan—are crucial to securing our long-term competitiveness, providing residents with concrete ways to create the futures they dream of, and continuing our state’s commitment to education at every level. Included in that commitment is a historic $1.5 billion in early education and care, as well as making universal free school meals permanent and school construction funds more accessible. As we seek to improve access to quality health care, our investment in nurses—combined with a policy provision to allow more professional nurses to train the next generation—will help ease the burden on our workforce, while we update protocols for stroke and protect preventive health services that are currently covered by the Aff ordable Care Act. These are just a few of the many important provisions included in the fi nal Fiscal Year 2024 budget, all designed to keep Massachusetts moving forward as we continue to go back to better after COVID. I am so very grateful to all of my Senate colleagues, with whom so many of the great initiatives included in the fi nal budget initiated, as well as to Senate Ways and Means Chair Michael Rodrigues, Vice Chair Cindy Friedman, and Assistant Vice Chair Jo Comerford, Senate Ways and Means staff , Speaker Mariano, the conferees and everyone who worked so hard to get this impressive budget over the fi nish line.” Sena t or Di Domen i co worked with his colleagues to help secure funding and language for many programs and initiatives in the FY24 budget including: Food insecurity · Universal School Meals: $171.5 million to provide free universal school meals to all students throughout the Commonwealth, making Massachusetts the seventh state in the country to make the program permanent. Over 80,000 additional children will be eating school meals as a result of this program compared to 2019 before free meals were off ered statewide. · Food assistance: $36 million for the Massachusetts Emergency Food Assistance Program after securing $1 million additional funding through the amendment process. Supporting families in poverty · Children’s clothing allowance: providing $450 per child for eligible families (an increase of $50 per child) to buy clothes for the upcoming school year. · Cash benefi t increase for those in deep poverty: the budget includes a 10 percent increase to Transitional Aid to Families with Dependent Children (TAFDC) and Emergency Aid to the Elderly, Disabled and Children (EAEDC) benefi t levels compared to June 2023. Education · $6.59 billion in Chapter 70 funding, an increase of $604 million over FY 2023, as well as doubling minimum Chapter 70 aid from $30 to $60 per pupil. · Early Education & Care: $1.5 VOTES | SEE PAGE 10 Prices subject to change DIESEL TRUCK STOP FLEET
THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 11, 2023 Page 3 Emilio Matarazzo Guilty of Murder of Wife Ersilia Cataldo Matarazzo E VERETT – Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Everett Chief of Police Steven Mazzie have confirmed that Emilio Matarazzo has been found guilty of first-degree murder in connection with killing his wife, Ersilia Cataldo Matarazzo on December 19, 2018. Mr. Matarazzo was found guilty after a 16-day trial in Middlesex Superior Court. Sentencing was scheduled for yesterday, August 10, 2023 but the verdict was not announced by press time. “Intimate partner violence continues to be a significant public safety and public health issue. Ms. Cataldo Matarazzo had been subjected to a long history of abuse that escalated when she tried to leave the defendant. We know that when a victim decides to leave a relationship that time can be incredibly dangerous and in this case Ersilia Cataldo Matarazzo was senselessly murdered when she left the defendant and fi led for divorce,” said District Attorney Ryan. “Since her murder, her family, neighbors and her many friends have drawn attention to the important message that domestic violence is a community issue. They have helped to raise awareness and provided resources to aid victims and survivors.” On December 19, 2018, at approximately 8:40 a.m., Everett Police responded to a report of a shooting on Central Avenue in Everett. Upon arrival authorities located the victim, identifi ed as Ersilia Cataldo Matarazzo, 50, inside her car located in the driveway. The victim had sustained multiple gunshot wounds to the torso and was pronounced dead at the scene. Everett Police and Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s Offi ce immediately began an investigation. The investigation revealed that about a month before the shooting, Ms. Cataldo Matarazzo had fi led for divorce from the defendant and moved into her parents’ Central Avenue home. She disclosed a long history of verbal abuse as well as the fact that, more recently, the defendant had become physically abusive to her, strangling and scratching her. On December 18, 2019, the defendant went to a Christmas party at St. Anthony’s Parish in Everett, where the victim worked. The defendant was angry and demanded to see his wife. He was asked to leave and pushed his daughter in anger outside the church. On December 19, 2018, sometime after 8:30 a.m., a witness heard gunshots and saw from her window, a male, later identified as the defendant, approach a car in the Central Avenue driveway with a long gun, aim it down to the window and begin fi ring into the car where the victim was seated. Later that morning, the defendant walked into the police station where he was arrested. Investigators subsequently executed a search warrant at a MURDER | SEE PAGE 6 www.eight10barandgrille.com OPEN DAILY FOR DINNER AT 4 PM.

You may remember that I was suddenly called to office last June after the incumbent (and now my opponent) was forced to quit. I’ve learned so much since then and I’ve decided: We deserve better. The good news is that Everett has made a lot of progress during my first year in office. I’d like to share how this impacts you, what I’ve done so far, and ask for your vote on Tuesday, November 7, 2023 so I can continue to serve our community!

Our current zoning ordinances are old, outdated and overlooked. These important issues have been ignored for decades, resulting in developers benefitting more than residents. Developers have been allowed to build in Everett at any cost, regardless of pollution, congestion and other negative effects. We deserve better. So, I’ve been working with the Planning Board to amend our zoning ordinances to better suit the needs of our community — now and in the future — and to require developers to deliver more benefits to our community. I have also organized stakeholders to create a Master Plan for Ward 3, including Glendale Square. I am an independent voice representing our residents and advocating for our health and safety. Wynn Casino Expansion and Renegotiation Wynn is proposing an Encore Boston Harbor East of Broadway expansion. Unfortunately, Everett came up short in the first negotiation of the Host Agreement with Wynn. We deserve better. I would not approve expansion plans until we have an updated agreement that supports the interests of Everett’s residents much more thoroughly. I’ve pushed to negotiate a new Host Agreement. In our negotiations, we must consider the full scope of Wynn’s growth, including the future expansion of 50 more acres. For example, Wynn currently only has to pay Everett an annual escalator of 2.5%, a rate far less than the rate our property taxes increase each year. Wynn should be required to collaborate and pay more, genOur 51st Anniversary Chris 2023 Darren Costa erate more green space, create more open public/private areas, and put any new parking structures below ground. More of my ideas on this topic are published in the Everett Independent opinion section on June 7, 2023. City Budget Stewardship, Allocation and Transparency The City’s operating budget is where all of our hard-earned tax dollars are allocated and spent. That money is meant to provide services to our citizens. Unfortunately, our budget approval process has lacked proper oversight and expertise for too long. We deserve better. As a business person and financial professional, I understand how to manage finances wisely — and in the open. In under a year, I’ve learned our City’s budget and will push for much-needed improvements. I’ve already increased transparency and accountability, MURDER | FROM PAGE 3 Foster Street property, owned by the defendant, and located the murder weapon, a Beretta .12-gauge shotgun hidden behind a workbench in the basement. That gun bore the same serial number as the shotgun that was missing from the gun safe at defendant’s home. This investigation was conducted by the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, the Everett Police Department and Massachusetts State Police Detectives assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office. Tragically, this case marks the Office’s second conviction in a domestic violence murder this month. There have been six domestic violence homicides in 2023 in Middlesex County, two of which occurred in the last few weeks. This alarming pattern highlights the pervasive nature of domestic violence, which can happen in any home, in any community.

Additionally, in 2020, District Attorney Marian Ryan launched a dedicated text line for victims to provide victims with direct access to a victim witness advocate via text message. The line provides the opportunity for victims in non-emergency situations to have live interaction with an advocate in the District Attorney’s Office without having to say a word. This is a valuable tool both for individuals who may feel safer utilizing text and for young people who often prefer text to phone call. Recognizing that many victims are reaching out with questions regarding personal matters, this line provides a person-to-person connection, which can help alleviate the stress of navigating the criminal justice system. Victims can reach an advocate during regular office hours (8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.) via text message at 781-281-4066.

Selling out entirely, it has established itself as one of Boston’s premier summer events. This cruise saw a turnout of approximately 800 attendees, despite the dreadful weather. This event is a great time, a major annual fundraising initiative and a significant community gathering. Attendees, including first responders and patrons, attended in impressive numbers to support this notable cause. The evening was enlivened with music by DJ(s) Kenio, Mike and Kbrini Halls, accompanied by a t-shirt giveaway. The event also featured a check presentation to Revere Police School Resource Officer Joe Singer, who started Revere Boxing Outreach, a nonprofit afterschool boxing program for Revere students ages 12-18. “Our sustained success over these 24 cruises is largely attributable to our generous sponsors, our dedicated members, the invaluable support of our first responders, and the wider community,” said Everett Police Officer Raoul Goncalves, who founded Mass Badge. Mass Badge is particularly grateful for the dedicated support from local police marine units, who provided a special cruise escort. Mass Badge stated, “We extend our deep gratitude to sponsors, including John Angiolillo and Richard D’Angelo of Dunkin’ Donuts, Costco Wholesale, Icon Motor Group, Stars Branding, Valentim Plumbing, Boston Pads, Quealy Towing, Oliveira’s Steak Bar & Grill, and Members Plus Credit Union. Their unwavering support significantly contributes to the success of our mission.” Year at Annual Harbor Cruise Mass Badge Vice President & Revere Police Sargent Joe Internicola, Jr. (right) presented a check to Revere Police School Resource Officer Joe Singer, founder of Revere Boxing Outreach.

The tax preparer created phony businesses that reported false operating losses. She also claimed fuel tax credits even though only .2% of all taxpayers qualify for such fuel credits. She also claimed state income tax deductions as an itemized deduction on Schedule A for taxpayer clients of hers that lived in Texas. Texas has no state income taxes. Apparently, she also fabricated medical expense deductions, charitable contribution deductions and deductions for unemployment reimbursements. The IRS Criminal Investigation division uncovered evidence that 98% of her tax clients received refunds. In reality, several of her tax clients owed as much as $25,000 in federal income taxes and yet paid nothing. This tax preparer supposedly was charging more for tax preparation fees than was customary in her area of tax practice. She encouraged clients to refer her business in order to perpetuate the continuing crimes. The IRS confirmed she purchased a Bentley and a Maserati as well. Cosmetic surgery was also one of the benefits of continuing in this tax fraud scheme. The guilty verdict was handed down on April 3, 2023. She was sentenced on July 11, 2023. The IRS stated that she also owed over $1.9million in federal income taxes. She only began to pay money towards the outstanding balance once she realized the IRS’ Criminal Investigation Division Special Agents were investigating her and only after the crimes were committed. As a tax preparer, she is required to not only file all of her tax returns, but she is also required to pay all of the taxes due to the federal government. The CI is the Criminal Investigation division of the IRS, responsible for conducting financial crime investigations, public corruption, healthcare fraud, identity theft and much more. CI agents are the only federal law enforcement agents with investigative jurisdiction over violations of the Internal Revenue Code, obtaining more than a 90% federal conviction rate. The agency has 20 field offices located across the U.S. and 12 attache’ posts abroad.

Legislature passes bill authorizing Chapter 90 funding benefiting DiDomenico’s District Makes investments in roads, bridges, public transportation and regional transit authorities S enator Sal DiDomenico joined his colleagues in the Massachusetts Legislature in passing a bill that includes $375 million in bond authorizations for transportation needs across the state, including $200 million for the state’s Chapter 90 program, which provides municipalities with a reliable funding source for transportation-related improvements, including road and bridge repairs. Last week Governor Maura Healey signed the bill into law, ensuring this critical funding will be distributed across the state. “Our communities and economy are stitched together by roads, bridges, the MBTA and regional transit authorities, so ensuring this infrastructure is safe, accessible, and up to 21st century standards is nonnegotiable,” said Senator DiDomenico, who is Assistant Majority Leader of the Massachusetts Senate. “These investments will repair outdated transportation infrastructure and keep our state on track to cut greenhouse gas emissions by supporting efforts to electrify our cars and provide high quality public transportation. These investments will have a big impact in my district and throughout the Commonwealth.” “Ensuring that people in every region of Massachusetts have safe and dependable transportation options is fundamental to creating a competitive and equitable Commonwealth,” said Senate President Karen E. Spilka (D-Ashland). “This funding invests in our infrastructure and transit systems everywhere, allocating much-needed funds to local roads and bridges, regional transit, EV infrastructure, and parts of the MBTA. I want to thank Senator Crighton for making this a priority, my Senate colleagues for their support, and Speaker Mariano and the House for agreeing on these critical investments in our infrastructure.” This legislation also authorizes $175 million in programs that will support various transportation-related projects. This includes $25 million for each of the following: · the municipal small bridge program · the Complete Streets program · a bus transit infrastructure program · grants to increase access to mass transit and commuter rail stations · grants for municipalities and regional transit authorities to purchase electric vehicles and the infrastructure needed to support them · funding for pavement and surface improvements on state and municipal roadways · new funding dedicated to additional transportation support based on road mileage, which is particularly helpful for rural communities Happy Birthday, Stacy DeMaria!

Page 14 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 11, 2023 REMEMBER WHEN? It was 20 years ago when Everett Little League 12s fell to Saugus American in Mass. State Tournament Championship Final! saugus went on to win NE Title before a magical run in Little League World series that drew national attention By Steve Freker Note: Some of the following info comes from the Massachusetts State Tournament website. “W hat if?” holds a prominent place in the lexicon of sports at any level. It is even more lofty than the run-of-the-mill “Woulda, Coulda, Shouda” triplets. “What if?” means a team was one hit, one touchdown, one putt away from something sensational. It means a team or individual was “thisclose” to a truly spectacular feat. So it was for the 2003 Everett Little League 12-year-old Williamsport All-Star Team – which went further in All-Star play than any team in the city’s history. This year’s win by the 2023 Everett “12s” for the District 12 title, followed by a run in the Mass. Sectionals, prompted a look back in history. Lo and behold, a memory was resurrected – and it comes in a milestone year. Added to Everett’s history-making year was another piece of Little League history. In 2003, Everett won both the District 12 and Section 4 championships and did indeed advance to its one and only appearance in the Mass. State Little League Championship. After a one-sided drubbing in the opening round by Middleboro (17-1), Everett rallied back and made it all the way to the Mass. State Championship Game, where they fell in the double-elimination tournament to Saugus American, 11-1, In the 2003 Mass. State Tournament held at Stanley Johnson Field in Oxford, Mass. Yes, that Saugus American! This would be the 2003 Saugus American team that would go on a tear – where they would not lose another game for a month – in the United States Championship game of the Little League World Series, to Boynton Beach, Fla. Like Everett, Saugus American reached the Massachusetts State Tournament for the fi rst time by upending Weston, 16-1, in the Section 4 championship game at Reinfuss Field in Lynn. For Saugus, it was the beginning of a summer of fi rsts: fi rst state championship, fi rst appearance in a nationally televised game, fi rst region championship – and fi rst-ever trip to the Little League World Series. Saugus started its soon to be well-known penchant of manufacturing “the big inning” at the Mass. State Tournament, something they would duplicate at each of the next levels, the New Englands, then the ultimate, the Little League World Series. The “What if” looms large! Just what if Everett had topped Saugus in that State Championship Tournament and it was Everett – not Saugus – that carried itself through the New Englands to the Williamsport World Series? In the Mass. State Tournament, Saugus scored seven times in the top of the second inning and never looked back, topping Everett, 11-1, in the state championship game. It was the third consecutive state tournament game in which Saugus overwhelmed the opposition with a big inning. Saugus toppled Westfi eld North, 16-6, behind a nine-run fourth inning rally in their state tournament opener, then used a five-run third inning rally to defeat Middleboro, 7-1, and gain the championship game. Saugus rang up its big innings with a swarm of little hits. The team’s three home runs at the state tournament were all solo shots, and only one came in their decisive rallies. “They found a way to get the SAUGUS AMERICAN TEAM AT WORLD SERIES: Shown at the 2003 Little League World Series are the members of the Saugus American State and New England Champion team – as well as Little League World Series runner-up. (Courtesy Photo) ball over the infi eld and in front of the outfi eld,” said Middleboro manager Ron Holmgren after Saugus sent his team to the elimination bracket. “[They] did that today, and last night when I scouted them. They put the bat on the ball and don’t strike out.” Another Saugus “big inning” came at a critical time in their state tournament opener. Westfi eld North took a 6-4 third inning lead against a depleted Saugus pitching staff , but the District 16 champions strung together seven hits and capitalized on a pair of Westfi eld errors to score nine runs in the fourth inning. Saugus loaded the bases on a walk and a pair of bunt singles to open the inning, and then tied the game on hits by Dario Pizzano and Joe Kasabuski. Matt Muldoon reached on an error that plated two runs, and Dave Ferreira made it 9-6 with an RBI single. Yano Petruzzelli added a two-run double, and two more runs scored on a throwing error following Tyler Calla’s bunt. The rally made a winner out of Chris Cole, who relieved starter Mark Sacco in SAUGUS AMERICAN TEAM HONORED: When they came home from the Little League World Series, the members of the Saugus American Little League team were honored at a Town Day at Stackpole Field in Saugus.

Everett, which eliminated Westfield after its opening round debacle against Middleboro, then gained revenge against the District 7 champions with a 4-3 win in the elimination bracket fi nals. Middleboro led 1-0 in the early innings, but after third baseman T.H. Horan pulled a leg muscle while hustling to fi rst base, the District 7 champion’s makeshift defense suffered. Everett scored four unearned runs, breaking a 2-2 tie when Brian Nuzzo reached well out of the strike zone to deliver a bases-loaded, two-out, two-run single in the fourth. Middleboro got one run back in the fi fth, but Everett pitcher John Forte escaped further trouble and lifted his team into the championship game. Everett had lost to Middleboro, 17-1, in its fi rst game, but beat Westfi eld North, 5-1, and eliminated Middleboro, 4-3, to get to the fi nal.

Joe Kasabuski’s solo home run gave the North Shore contingent a lead in the top of the fi rst, and Everett responded when Billy Callahan’s one-hop single off the center field fence scored Forte. With two runners on and Everett threatening to score again, center fi elder Cole made a diving catch of Dan Smith’s line drive and threw to second to double off the runner and end the inning. In the top of the second, Saugus made Everett pay for the missed opportunity, stringing together seven hits, a walk and an error to score seven runs and essentially decide the game’s outcome. Ferreira led off the inning with a single to center, Calla reached on an error and Petruzzelli singled to right to load the bases. After a strikeout, the next six batters all drove in runs. Anthony DiSciscio’s blooper to right scored Ferreira, and Cole’s safety plated Calla. Dario Pizzano’s single scored pinch runner Ryan Bateman, and Kasabuski drew a walk to force in DiSciscio. Muldoon’s fi elder’s choice scored Cole, and Ferreira capped the inning that he had started with a two-run single to center. With the big lead in hand, Muldoon settled down, allowing only four hits and keeping Everett off the scoreboard for the remainder of the game. Saugus added single runs in the fourth and fi fth before Muldoon capped the scoring with a line drive home run to left in the sixth. “I don’t want to say this was far from our dreams, but you need a lot of stuff to happen to get here,” said Rochenski of his team’s state championship. “And once you win the first game, and you see there are only four teams here, you wonder why it can’t be you.” “We had that one loss against Weston [a 10-5 drubbing in the Section 4 tournament], and it humbled us a bit,” said Rochenski. Saugus later defeated the same team 6-0 and 16-1 in the tournament’s championship series. “The first time we played them we just had a bad day, that’s all there was to it,” said the Saugus manager. “Of course, it’s one thing for the adults to say that, and another for the kids to actually believe it.” Saugus captured the Bay State championship and then rolled to six wins at the New England Region tournament, including a 4-0 championship game win over Augusta West Little League (Maine) that punched the team’s ticket to South Williamsport. They ended up winning 22 of 25 postseason games. Once in Williamsport, Saugus won four consecutive one-run decisions, including a wild 1413 win over Southwest Region champion Lamar National Little League (Richmond, Texas) in the U.S. semifi nals. Saugus’ run fi nally came to an end with a 9-2 loss to East Boynton Beach Little League (Florida) in the U.S. championship game. 2023 Massachusetts State Tournament Host: Oxford (District 5) at Stanley Johnson Field Participating Teams Section 1 Champions Westfi eld North (District 2) Section 2 Champions Middleboro (District 7) Section 3 Champions Everett (District 12) Section 4 Champions Saugus American (District 16) Tournament Results: Opening Round: Saugus American 16, Westfi eld North 6 (5 innings); Middleboro 17, Everett 1 (full six innings).

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 11, 2023 Page 17 RESNEK | FROM PAGE 1 When asked by the attorney if he was paying any attention to Resnek’s meetings with Mattuchio, a stanch Capone supporter, Philbin stated,” Not that I remember.” Atty. Robbins then introduced an exhibit that displayed multiple cell phone text messages beginning May 20 through June 9, 2021, between Resnek and Mattuchio showing that the two were meeting up at the Sunrise Café. Asked if he could also confi rm text messages between himself and Resnek, Philbin confi rms they are. In one particular June 18, 2021, text, Philbin asks Resnek, “so no breakfast with Mattuchio last couple of weeks?” “Why did you want to know whether or not Mr. Resnek was having breakfast with Mr. Mattuchio?” asked the attorney. Philbin replied that Resnek usually tells him when he has breakfast and lunch meetings even though stating earlier that he never questions or pays attention to Resnek’s schedule. “Just happened to be interested in the meeting with Mr. Mattuchio?” asks Atty. Robbins. “I can’t remember at that time,” answered Philbin. Philbin denied that Resnek was receiving cash from Mattuchio to fund the newspaper at their morning get-togethers. “Can you think of any particular reason that you were interested in Mr. Resnek’s meetings with Mr. Mattuchio, sir?” “I don’t know. Maybe he’s a supporter of Fred Capone. Other than that, he’s in advertising,” replied Philbin. Philbin said he knew Mattuchio, who owns a local laundromat, was a supporter of Capone because Resnek told him so but couldn’t remember the reason why he was asking Resnek about meetings with Mattuchio. But in the next text between Resnek and Philbin – sent just 30 seconds later – Resnek writes, “Mattuchio states that its a guarantee.” Philbin claimed Resnek was referring to guaranteeing breakfast meetings with Mattuchio; nothing to do with receiving money for the newspaper.

Page 18 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 11, 2023 RESNEK | FROM PAGE 17 during the mayoral campaign but he had personally paid for it out of his own pocket despite counting on Resnek to find advertising revenue. But according to Resnek, he informs Philbin of his plan to raise $16,000; $5,000 from Mr. A, $5,000 from Mr. B, and $6,000 from Mr. C. – three payments, according to Resnek, that “will pay almost entirely for all our printing and distribution costs for the 7 weeks. Whatever comes in from advertising will also add to our bottom line.” Asked if he knew the identities of Mr. A, Mr. B and Mr. C, Philbin said he didn’t know, that it must have been advertising, and that he’s the one funding the newspaper every week. Atty. Robbins asked if the advertising Resnek is referring to must be something over and apart from the three $16K anonymous donors. Philbin denied it and said he didn’t remember if he asked Resnek for the donor’s identities. “Yeah, I’m not Mr. A, B and C,” said Philbin. “So, he’s referring to somebody other than you?” asked the attorney, pointing to Resnek’s email stating that for the next seven weeks, he (Philbin) “gets a free ride from cash infusions.” Resnek further states in his email that there’ll be “more than additional thousands for our use.” The conversation turned to the Philbin family’s relationship with the mayor. When asked if he discussed the issue with Resnek – that he felt “frozen out” in terms of doing business with the mayor – Philbin replied, “absolutely not.” Atty. Robbins asked if he and any members of his family attempted to reach out to the mayor, and that they were not getting their phone calls returned; Philbin again stated, “absolutely not.” Do you remember.... Robbins presented an email exhibit from May 2018 from Philbin to the mayor that states “…for the past 10 years, my family has made many attempts to work with you and have received not even a call back.” Asked if he was attempting to speak to the mayor about the Philbin family business, Philbin replied, “What business?” “Any business,” replied the attorney. The Philbin family owns many businesses in Everett and throughout Greater Boston and beyond, including numerous properties and real estate holdings, such as Philbin Insurance on Broadway, Zeke’s Pub on Chelsea Street and two rooming houses adjacent to the bar, as well as multiple apartments and the Everett Leader Herald newspaper and the building on Church Street. Matthew Philbin also owns a marijuana company on Railroad Avenue in Revere as well as one in Portland, Maine. The Everett Advocate reaches into its library of over 6,000 photos to bring you photographic memories through the lens of our photographers the past 32 years! “You felt that the mayor – and his allies – were lined up against you. Is that fair to say?” asked the attorney. “No,” replied Philbin. In a June 20, 2020, email from Resnek to Philbin, Resnek states that all the mayor’s friends are lined up against them. “They are all lined up together, in one way or another, against us,” stated Resnek in the email. “There is no room for us in this world they have created among themselves in Everett. There is no room to allow you to remove snow.” Philbin is the owner of a snow removal company called Northeast Ice & Snow, which he claims only services private companies. Asked if he contracts with any public bodies, Philbin stated that he did not apply for a city contract – stating that he doesn’t contract for municipal or state work. In the same email, Resnek refers to Greg Antonelli, owner of GTA Landscaping and Construction, “buying the Cornelio property that the mayor was a partner in which he has admitted to me and I (we) will not use.” “My question is he (Resnek) informed you in June 2020, Mr. Philbin, that the mayor and Mr. Cornelio, were in fact, partners in a piece of real estate?” asked Atty. Robbins. “Which I have no idea what he was talking about,” replied Philbin. “I’m not asking you whether you have any idea. Did he or did he not inform you that in June of 2020, sir?” “Buying the Cornelio property that the mayor was partner in. Yeah. It says it right there,” stated Philbin. When questioned if he ever asked Resnek back in 2021 about being informed that the mayor and Cornelio were partners back in 2020, Philbin replied, “no.” Despite knowing back in 2020, Philbin and Resnek published stories claiming the mayor had no interest in the property and that he was extorting Cornelio over $90,000 over the real estate deal. “In Sept. of 2021, your paper published stories to the effect that Mr. DeMaria did not actually have an interest in the Corey Street property, am I right?” asked Atty. Robbins. “I don’t know if that’s what it stated. If you can show me it, I’ll read it,” said Philbin. “Do you recall publishing that Mr. DeMaria was asking for money and demanding money from a property that he had no interest in? Do you recall that?” “Yes,” replied Philbin. “And in fact, you had been informed 15 months earlier by Mr. Resnek himself that Mr. DeMaria and Mr. Cornelio were, in fact, partners in Corey Street, correct?” asked the attorney. “Objection,” stated Philbin’s attorney, “asked and answered. Philbin then admits that he met with Cornelio sometime in the fall of 2021 to discuss the Corey Street property deal and called the mayor a crook, referring to a Sept. 8 text where Philbin texted to Cornelio, “Friends don’t do a fraction of the shit that has been done to you by this Crook.” “You’re referring to Mr. DeMaria, correct?” asked Atty. Robbins. “I don’t recall, but possibly, yes,” replied Philbin. Next week: Philbin tosses around “some ideas” about the mayor with Cornelio.

Reason for Denial: Permit was denied in accordance to the City of Everett Zoning Ordinance.

According to the plans provided, the property at 4-6 Chestnut Pl. has a rear yard of twenty-two (22) feet where twenty-five (25) is required.

Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. The City was committed to a full and fair inquiry and retained outside counsel to conduct an internal review of the allegations and to assist in the inquiry, including interacting with representatives of the Department of Justice. The City demonstrated its commitment to a thorough and timely review by cooperating fully with all aspects of the inquiry and providing information and records responsive to the requests of the Department of Justice. “We cooper a t ed full y throughout the course of this inquiry,” said Mayor DeMaria. “I am pleased that the matter has been closed, but I am not surprised by the outcome.” With the written notification from the Department of Justice, the matter is now closed without further action or investigatory activities, and no charges will be brought against the City or any municipal employees or officials. The closing of the inquiry does not mean that the work underway in Everett will come to an end. “Our commitment to ensuring that we are an ‘Everett for Everyone’ began before this inquiry was opened and that work continues,” said the Mayor. “We will continue to find ways to bring residents together to celebrate the diverse cultures that make our community special, as well as continue with our teachings and trainings dedicated to providing our residents and also our employees with a city government that is accessible, respectful and culturally sensitive.” LEGAL NOTICE TRIAL COURT OF MASSACHUSETTS THE SUPERIOR COURT Michael A.
