Polansky cited a Mass. privacy statute pertaining to interference, with a person’s privacy. Robbins, in response, rebutted Polansky’s claim, pointing out that Ms. Vega was not under any confidentiality agreement of any kind with respect to the information she learned while working for Philbin and also that she had declined to y opponent, Michael Marchese, wants to pretend he is now the poster child for our children’s education in Everett. But here are the facts: (1) My opponent fought against the re-opening of the Webster School because it caused too much of a traffic inconvenience for him. (2) My opponent opposed Pre-K programs, because he believes too many newcomer families come to Everett to take advantage of this program. (3) My opponent doesn’t understand that education is the roadmap out of poverty and multiple studies have shown that for every $1 spent on early education, society saves $20 in costs such as under employment, under insured, homelessness and incarceration. (4) My opponent has never advocated for additional school funding, including the Student Opportunity Act. (5) My opponent has been a city official for nearly 3 decades and has never attended a school concert, play, STEM program presentation, TEASA meeting, graduation ceremony, and the list goes on. (6) My opponent even failed to keep his promise to the EHS Marching Band by failing to show up for a fundraiser he was supposed to cohost for their Pearl Harbor trip last year. I trust that you, the voters of Everett will see through his attempts to pull the wool over your eyes. My opponent talks a big game, but his actions prove where his intentions lie. To be continued… Regards, Joseph McGonagle State Representative - 28th Middlesex BBB Tip: Celebrate Halloween on a budget C onsumers are gearing up to celebrate Halloween. The National Retail Federation expects people will spend $10.6 billion, up from $10.1 billion in 2021. Among Halloween celebrants, 67 percent plan to buy candy, 51 percent plan to purchase decorations, and 47 RESNEK | FROM PAGE 4 percent will get costumes. Those numbers can seem daunting for a single day, especially when watching the family budget. However, there are ways to keep the fun stylish and on budget. Better Business Bureau recommends the following tips this Halloween: be represented by Philbin’s attorney despite his contacting her several times. Robbins also pointed out that Resnek had testified without objection about Philbin’s financial situation and had produced documents regarding that particular situation. Resnek had previously produced an email stating that he could not write anything negative about the Everett Co-operative Bank because his boss, Philbin, owed the bank approximately $6 million. HALLOWEEN | SEE PAGE 11 Robbins stated: “Ms. Vega’s testimony directly reinforces the evidence already on record that your client Mr. Resnek engaged in a furtive scheme, among other things, to raise thousands of dollars in cash in the summer of 2021 so that they, and defendant Dorchester Publications LLC, could, as Mr. Resnek admitted, campaign for Mayor DeMaria’s opponents and defeat the Mayor in his public bid for reelection.” Atty. Robbins reminded Polansky that it is a very public case – which has drawn the attention of Boston area newspapers and media outlets – about the defamation of the Mayor by means of articles that the defendants, through Resnek, have already admitted were “fabrications” and “BS.” “This is the first time that your clients, who own and control a newspaper which publishes freely whatever it sees fit, have suggested that they are entitled to keep evidence in this case ‘confidential,’ in derogation of the general principles governing the public nature of judicial proceedings.” stated Robbins. Robbins closed by reminding Polansky that the deposition transcripts belong to the parties in the case and not the lawyers, and that the clients have the right to do what they wish with them. He also reminded him that the Leader Herald has also written about the case. Look around your home Check your closet. There are probably hidden surprises to help you throw together a killer costume! Getting creative will not only help save money but will save space, too.
