Taryn's Parenting? In the Toilet!
Enclosed are materials in regard to Taryn Thoman, Dennis Wilcox, and the quality of parenting of their son, Aidan Thoman Wilcox. Taryn Thoman became involved with the recall effort of former Barnstable Town Council President Janet Swain Joakim. I was introduced to Taryn Thoman through Lou Gonzaga, a political activist and mutual acquaintance. Through Taryn Thoman, I was recruited by Citizens for Open Government for a number of initiatives including the well-publicized "Open Meeting of the Voters" and the Recall Effort of President Joakim.
There are a number of issues with the current sitting Barnstable Town Councilor of Precinct Six including the convolution of negligent human services provided by Housing Assistance Corporation, law enforcement and campaign contributions received by public officials. The organization houses a number of convicted felons and sex offenders in proximity to schools and daycare centers. Substandard services have compromised the health, welfare, and safety of vulnerable youth and innocent children. I was interested in resolving some of these problems and agreed to assist with the removal of President Janet Joakim.
Taryn Thoman initially presented herself as a concerned activist whose family was "destroyed" by the malicious and politically vindictive actions of President Janet Swain Joakim. Thoman had campaigned unsuccessfully for charter commission, finishing "just outside the winners circle" according The Barnstable Patriot. Thoman claimed she was professionally and politically ruined by both Janet Joakim and her neighbor, Christine Howell of Marstons Mills. Taryn Thoman's most pressing complaint was a reference to her child as a "kid of convenience" by adversaries posted on a political website published by President Janet Swain Joakim. Thoman suggested that she was emotionally and psychologically harmed such that she would never recover.
During my eight month effort to unseat President Janet Swain Joakim from office, Taryn Thoman confided a number of matters that I held in confidence. Thoman spoke openly about former narcotics use and participation in drug trafficking, driving while intoxicated, and problems with anger management and temper control. She stated both she and her husband had sought counseling to control their tempers. I held these confidences until it became apparent that both Aidan and neighborhood children may be in jeopardy because of her erratic behavior and bizarre antics.
During the course of the Recall Effort, Taryn Thoman claimed to have substantial footage of a neighborhood child molesting her son, evidence of neglect and abuse of neighborhood children by their parents, and stated she had to set up expensive video surveillance system on the perimeter of her home to collect such evidence and protect herself from allegations. Thoman had appeared several times in court to make criminal complaints against her neighbors and pursue litigation against them. The effort included suing for injunctive relief to force the neighbors to move from their home. Taryn Thoman and Dennis Wilcox made five unfounded complaints to the Department of Social Services about her neighbors, Ron and Christine Howell. The Howell family had to hire an attorney to keep their home.
I have enclosed all of the documents involved that led to the charge of criminal harassment against them and the charge of criminal harassment brought against Taryn Thoman by the District Attorney involving the Howell family in August of 2008. I have also included the charge of Assault and Battery brought against her husband in the Barnstable District Court in late August of 2008.
I withdrew all support for the recall effort and ceased all contact with Taryn Thoman when Thoman finally confided that her son was indeed, never molested by Tyler Varnum, her neighbor's child, nor did she have any footage of Ron Howell molesting or abusing his children nor evidence of his wife driving recklessly and driving to endanger. Thoman had also made a number of outrageous claims and accusations including an accusation that Christine Howell strew used needles and syringes in her yard in an effort to frame Thoman for erratic behavior. Thoman later admitted that she pilfered medical supplies from the supply closet at Ohio State University where her sister works. Terese Marinelli is a Research Coordinator and Administrative Assistant in the Endocrinology Research Laboratory and Clinic at Ohio State. Marinelli was instrumental in making specious allegations against Christine Howell and forwarded materials to formulate a complaint against the license of Christine Howell. The complaints and documents are enclosed.
Taryn Thoman did demonstrate active alcohol and narcotics abuse in the final phase of the recall effort. Thoman suggested that both she and her husband manufactured and used narcotics on the evening of Aug…after the submission of the initial affidavit. Subsequently, Thoman admitted that the allegations against the Howell and Varnum families were false. It was at that time that Thoman threatened me, my family and my employment on August 30, 2008. Thoman stated she would accuse me of heinous and atrocious acts for financial gain. I severed all ties with Thoman at that time. It has come to my attention that Taryn Thoman is escalating with cyber harassment, bullying, and formulating intimidating Internet communications, once again, causing concern.

Congratulations to Chief Paul MacDonald of Barnstable! What a Contract!
by David Still, II, Editor. Reprinted from The Barnstable Patriot
With the expected approval of the town council at its Oct. 15 meeting, Barnstable Police Chief Paul MacDonald will have something he never did before: a contract.
Town Manager John Klimm reached a three-year agreement with the chief, which needs ratification by the council. MacDonald has served as chief, first as interim, then as permanent, since the departure of John Finnegan in Nov. 2006. The position was then shifted out of civil service to that of a contract employee. Klimm said Tuesday that the chief has been an employee at will since that time.
Both Klimm and council president Fred Chirigotis offered praise for the work done by MacDonald in his time as chief.

Mr. Christopher H Worthington
187 Downer Avenue
Hingham, MA
Dear Mr. Worthington,
Enclosed are some documents that pertain to Housing Assistance Corporation of Hyannis and criminal activity related to the negligent operation of this substandard human service organization. The shelter system in Hyannis promotes an atmosphere of tolerance for criminal offenders and attracts drug addicts and convicted felons to the vicinity and greater Cape Cod region. Christopher McCowan frequented the area and was often seen with local drug dealers and addicts in associated crack houses. Many of these individuals are well known to local law enforcement and have been prosecuted by District Attorney Mr. Michael O’Keefe’s Office.
For the past three years I have followed the tragedy that claimed the life of your daughter. Your family has suffered a terrible loss and I cannot begin to understand the anger that you must feel not only toward the perpetrator but also those entrusted to protect the innocent and insure public safety. Mr. O’Keefe’s Office was consistently made aware of the problems created by narcotics trafficking and convicted felons with violent criminal pasts living in the area and local law enforcement did respond with increased vigilance when I lived researching this organization in a known crack house. The Officers of the Barnstable Police Department interfaced with McCowan and his friends constantly at 72 North Street, Hyannis. Unfortunately, we did not know we were harboring Mr. McCowan at Kendrick’s/North Street, Hyannis.
I recognized Mr. McCowan from my building as did two other residents and a known local drug dealer, all of us known to a local human service organization that caters to criminal offenders. Ms. Arlene Crosby, a reliable source who serves as the Housing Placement Specialist at the NOAH Shelter confirmed that McCowan was known to the area and that a colleague named Bernice Phillips had placed him at his rooming house on Lafrance Avenue. Ms. Phillips also places clients at the rooming house across the street from NOAH. Photographs of the general decadence in the area and narcotics use in the pictures that accompany these materials demonstrate public safety problems created by this organization.
When Housing Assistance Corporation made an attempt to expand shelter operations by procuring the Mildred’s Chowder House, the District Attorney went on record suggesting that the residents of Barnstable show “a little deference” to the “disparate elements” of the community. The Chief of Police in Barnstable negotiated a twenty-thousand dollar pay increase annually in a six-year contract to sign-off on the project. He instructed his public relations agent to handle questions on public safety. Chief Finnegan failed to attend the crucial meetings on expansion of the project and negotiated the pay raise with the assistance of Town Councilor Royden Richardson. Councilor Richardson was on the Board of Trustees of the Salvation Army with Chief Finnegan. He also is a trustee of Community Action Committee and was the representative of the Town Council who established the Barnstable Human Service Needs Committee.
At the expansion meetings, Mr. Rick Presbrey, CEO of Housing Assistance Corporation insisted that 72 North Street, frequented by McCowan was not a crack house. He also insisted that there were no known criminal offenders known to The NOAH Shelter. He stated that Chief John Finnegan would categorically deny that any known offenders were known to NOAH. Since August of 2003, seven violent offenders were tracked to the NOAH Shelter and three more to the immediate area after the killing of young Jonathan Wessner of Falmouth. Mr. Presbrey referred to me as “irresponsible” for suggesting that NOAH and the surrounding areas are unsafe. Mr. Presbrey was sponsoring the controversial “Dana’s Field’s Farm” and intended to screen all offenders from the applicant pool and place violent offenders in an expanded facility across from the Raddison Hotel in Hyannis. There is an associated health clinic that liberally prescribes narcotics to offenders and this is across the street from one of the crack houses that McCowan frequented here in Hyannis.
I hope during preparation for the upcoming trial that you could ask the District Attorney to take a more conservative approach to the shelter in downtown Hyannis. I am sure that Mr. O’Keefe did not intend to suggest deference to sex offenders such as Christopher McCowan or his cohort Perry Bell. At the Town of Sandwich Zoning Board of Appeals, Mr. Michael Princi, Esq. representing Housing Assistance Corporation for Dana’s Fields insinuated that he had made a significant contribution to Mr. O’Keefe and that he was owed favors by the District Attorney. I am also convinced that Mr. O’Keefe did not intend to have Housing Assistance Corporation or its attorney boasting that it had such clout with $525 in campaign contributions. Nevertheless, attorneys with whom I have spoken who have background with RICO believe there is some form of influence peddling in regard to the Chief of Police. He did indeed accept a $120,000 windfall salary increase over six years to instruct his media relations agent to sign off on the initiative that would have expanded negligent services to individuals like McCowan.
Chief John Finnegan was made aware of the difficulty with criminal offenders at NOAH well before he instructed his public relations agent to support the expansion of the organization providing negligent services to offenders. The salary increase and new contract were negotiated during the Barnstable Human Services efforts at the Barnstable Airport Commission and Mr. Presbrey invoked the Chief’s name several times in his attempts to assuage abutting residents of the “Mildred’s Chowder House” of their concern for safety issues.
I have forwarded this correspondence and materials to the families of other victims of crimes by perpetrators known to The NOAH Shelter/Housing Assistance Corporation. As with the other victims, your family and in particular your granddaughter are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Mary Clements

Why Mr. President Barack Obama! Welcome to the Hub of Terrorism!
Rasmussen quotes that a mere 26% of voters strongly approve of the job your doing. 39% strongly disapprove of your performance. Gallup indicates a 9% drop in your approval ratings for job performance, the largest ever for an elected president at this quarter in your term.
An Independent Report on the Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction indicates that the American Military with Obama as Commander in Chief have not made sufficient efforts to keep up with capabilities on bioterrorism, there is increasing tension in the Mid-East, the department of defense is asking for deployment of increased troops to Afghanistan, employment is at 9.6% and the public option for the universal health care coverage is ailing and suffered a serious setback.
Ignore the naysayers! Perry and Marvin still love 'ya!
Consider the correspondence and comments posted below comparing the global war on terrorism with the municipal battle of the local political nitwits. Accidental Politician Janet Swain Joakim and Accidental Activist Taryn Thoman are currently engaged in another political pissing contest, aptly over the cost of sewering and taxing toilets.
Councilor Janet Joakim of Centerville and Councilor Janice Barton of Marstons Mills lobbied for the expansion of negligent care and increased funding for substandard delivery of human services that compromise, welfare and safety of innocent children in downtown Hyannis and greater Barnstable. Roy Richardson, father-in-law of Barnstable Town Council President Fred Chirigotis organized an effort to relocate the local homeless shelter and clinic across from The Radisson Hotel, owned by real estate mogul, Stuart Bornstein. Housing Assistance Corporation lobbied simultaneously for funding for an 11.5 million dollar experimental farm project for criminal offenders in the neighboring town of Sandwich. The project that would exclude the majority of clientele boasted of two $589,000 homes on site for executives. Livia Davis, MSW approached Senator Ted Kennedy for funding of the project. She intended to leave the majority of convicted felons and violent narcotics addicts within two miles of the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port.
Taryn Thoman and Janet Joakim remain loyal to liberal factions of the Democratic Party. They are both former supporters of your former rival and current Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. As you know, Clinton is now more popular than you are, with approval ratings on job performance as high as 60%.

Dear Bob,
I have spent nearly everything I have on a "room with a view" at an Inn in Onset. I will probably need to leave by Monday, as I have spent everything I have for the month. You mentioned that you would help me sign up for emergency services. Monday's date is October 26, 2009. I will be in Barnstable in the midmorning and I am hoping to get a chance to speak with you. You suggested that I make an appointment. Would 12:00 be agreed?
I have enclosed two more pieces of correspondence for your review. I was hoping that you might get someone to review the issues that pertain to my Section 8 Housing Voucher. Kim Gomez of the Barnstable Housing Authority suggested that former President Janet Swain Joakim was instrumental in the removal of the subsidy. She suggested that I wasn't sufficiently "grateful" for the services provided in Barnstable. She also mentioned that Assistant Town Manager Tom Lynch was aware of the decision and that items regarding impropriety brought to his attention had become difficult for him while he was the Executive Director of the Barnstable Housing Authority.
Tom Lynch signed the charter commission paperwork for Taryn Thoman. Thoman was charged with criminal harassment during the recall effort of Janet Joakim. I assisted Thoman with the recall effort until matters came to my attention regarding the behavior and intentions of Recall Organizer Taryn Thoman made it impossible to me continue with the effort. I had been told that I was a material witness to problems related to Housing Assistance Corporation and that Joakim and Lynch may have tampered with a material witness.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Mary
Deval, We heard that the fundraiser isn't sold out and that there are a good number of desirable seats left. Any chance of the homeless and their ilk getting a late invite?

Who is Worse? Joakim, Thoman or Coakley?
If it isn't one terrorist, it's another! Correspondence, criminal records, photographs, court documents and other materials have been forwarded to US Attorney Michael Loucks in regard to an ongoing investigation into the human service establishment in Barnstable County and its convolution with public officials and law enforcement agents. At this point, it isn't known whether Attorney Michael Loucks will have an opportunity to review the documents himself, or pass the obligation to a staff member or any other assistant attorney. A number of public officials, including Councilor Janet Swain Joakim of Precinct Six and Activist and Lobbyist Taryn Thoman have considered items related to corruption, malfeasance and mismanagement of this magnitude "imaginary".
Interesting in what now must be "A Woman's Nation", few political figures at any level are willing to admit the truth about illegality and impropriety. Women's issues and women's aspirations are now dominant and paramount, while the greater good takes a backseat to personal, professional and political advancement.
Hopefully, the Janet Joakims, Taryn Thomans, Martha Coakleys, Maria Shrivers and Jenna Bush Hagers of the world are not creating a society of mysogynists out of our progeny.

Dear Attorney Loucks
Please consider correspondence and materials forwarded to The Office of the Attorney General, Martha Coakley in reference to an ongoing investigation pertaining to negligent human services in the Town of Barnstable. Housing Assistance Corporation and associated agencies harbored a number of sex offenders, convicted felons and habitual narcotics offenders. Attorneys representing this organization planned an $11.5 million dollar farm project complete with two lavish homes for executives. District Attorney Michael O'Keefe and other local law enforcement agents were apprised of the negligent standard for human services and the constant compromise to public safety. The shelter complex in downtown Hyannis provided services to a number of known sex offenders and violent convicted felons and denied any threat to public safety of the organization in proximity to innocent women, men and vulnerable children. Executives of this organization and attorneys representing their interests planned experimental projects and controversial methods for provision of substandard services including liberal administration of narcotics to violent offenders.
Housing Assistance Corporations associated O'Neill and Duffy Clinic follow methods such as "Harm Reduction Theory" developed by Edith Springer and The Housing First Model devised by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and its Office of Policy Development and Research. Unfortunately, a number of rapes and homicides were traced to the organization and associated agencies. Executives and administration of Housing Assistance denied that any convicted felons, chronic and violent addicts and habitual sex offenders were known to this organization. District Attorney Michael O'Keefe not only sat on the Barnstable Human Service Needs Committee, but also accepted campaign contributions from human service providers entrusted with their care. 501C Tax Returns indicate that 94-97% of the organization's revenue is derived from public funds. Documents indicate Housing Assistance Corporation records revenue of $14,500 divided between seven sub-organizations and continued to plan an $11.5 million dollar experimental project without funding to safely organize and develop such a project. O'Keefe sat on the committees that planned these initiatives and was involved with the expansion of negligent services for offenders.
Some of the high profile homicides include the murder of Christa Worthington of Truro, Melissa Gosule of Boston, and Jonathan Wessner of Falmouth. Christopher H. Worthington, Esq. father of the homicide victim in Truro stated that I should consider myself a "material witness" in an ongoing investigation and that I should consider any and all materials relevant. Worthington confided in me that he had close ties to the Office of the Attorney General and connections with former Lieutenant Governor, Kerry Healy. He stated that he would approach the Office of the Attorney General with materials, documents and correspondence. I have enclosed the receipts for certified mail indicating that these materials were received. In addition the materials were forwarded to author Peter Manso and Stone Phillips of NBC Dateline. Seth Rolbein, Editor of The Cape Cod Voice indicates that I was the original source of the article published in the May edition of his magazine featuring an expose on Michael O'Keefe.
Please consider the material enclosed indicating that I was charged with criminal harassment of the Barnstable Police Department and the District Attorney's Office for forwarding extensive materials and controversial correspondence. I was recently evicted from an apartment covered by Section 8 Subsidy after several attempts were made for me to relocate failed and despite evidence indicating that my rent was fully paid. Kim Gomez and Sandra Perry of the Barnstable Housing Authority suggested that former Barnstable Housing Authority Executive Director Tom Lynch and former Town Council President Janet Swain Joakim insisted that I had been "less than grateful" for the housing services provided to me in Barnstable. I was told that the decision to remove my Section 8 Housing Voucher was based on my refusal to cooperate with treatment and comply with regulations put forth by the Section 8 Program.
A number of photographs, court records and documents are placed on a website and blog roll www.welcometobarnstable.com. The items demonstrate the conditions of my recent residences and tenancies in Barnstable. I have enclosed copies of some of the documents that indicate that my life was in jeopardy in these buildings and that I was also concerned because I had been told I was a material witness. A number of documents and materials including videotape, audiotape, photographs and court records and medical records remain in my possession. These materials have been collected over eight years and are too expensive and too extensive to forward. Several parties have offered me compensation for these materials including municipal figures in the Town of Barnstable. I have declined these offers because I was told to consider myself a "material witness". In addition, there were a number of attorneys who already had access to the information and much of the materials are secured on computer hardware in a number of places. Once again, a good amount of items including this correspondence is posted on www.welcometobarnstable.com.
There appears to be a multidisciplinary corruption probe that involves many departments. Some have suggested that there may be substantial evidence of "witness tampering" subsequent to the removal of my housing subsidy. I understand that the Attorney General Martha Coakley is also under investigation over campaign contributions. I have included the records from the Office of Campaign and Political Finance for District Attorney Michael O'Keefe and Senator Robert O'Leary for your review.
Would you look into this matter for me? Thank you for your time and consideration.
Very truly yours,

Michael Loucks is busy these days, investigating impropriety. A former colleague of Martha Coakley, Attorney Larry Hardoon of Fell Acre Trial Fame is on record per his personal website making for negotiations with Palestinians.
Larry has/had dual citizenship with Israel and was involved in a plot to sell weapons to Palestinians as far back as 1990. Sally Roth, MD. of the Children's Hospital in Boston and State Trooper Corey Daehlstat of the current Attorney General's Office mentioned that they were "not allowed to even mention the name of Larry Hardoon. Mr. Loucks, maybe Martha Coakley should be investigated for more than campaign impropriety and ignoring corruption involving homeless services in Hyannis!

You are also in receipt of a complaint forwarded via Gary Lopez of Citizen's for Open Government on my behalf in regard to the open denial of my First Amendment Rights on two separate occasions at public meetings in the Town of Barnstable. I did speak to State Trooper Corey Daelstadt of the Cyber crimes Unit of your office in regard to the vitriolic nature of blogging, graphic items developed by Taryn Thoman of Marstons Mills and comments made about me by of President Janet Joakim and her supporters that violated standards for decency.
Did you suspend any effort to investigate Housing Assistance Corporation and related agencies that resulted into the rape and death of multiple victims in Barnstable County during your senatorial campaign? I was informed that I was a material witness in an ongoing investigation that involves a number of high profile homicides including the murder of Christa Worthington of Truro.

Pino v. Pinnochio!
Political debates are intended to define the platform and political prowess of electable candidates. Each and every viable runner vying for an elected position has an opportunity and obligation to present their objectives and goals. The viewing public is most often looking to develop an understanding of the candidates political agenda, personal attributes, and points that demonstrate quality of character.
Monday's political debate between sitting Councilor Janet Swain Joakim and challenger Joe Pino leaves the viewer confounded. The debate aired on local cable on October 19, 2009 lacked the intensity of argument of more publicized political races, however the showing between these two candidates indicates the poor quality and low standard of Barnstable's current municipal leaders.
Joe Pino, challenger for the precinct councilor seat in the sixth remained succinct and at times terse, but remained relaxed, direct and remarkably informed. Apprised of accurate current figures, armed with statistics and reliable numbers, Pino provided a comprehensive plan for municipal improvement.
Unfortunately, Janet Swain Joakim resorted to her usual prevarication and typical deception by blatantly denying her concerns over $150,000 in betterment fees exacted in the current effort to sewer the Stewart's Creek area under consideration. Joakim proceeded to claim credit for increased consideration of Barnstable's Public Schools and funding initiatives for charter schools. Funding for such charter school initiatives were secured by her rival, who formerly held her seat. Pino achieved these initiatives prior to her challenge for his seat in 2001.
Janet Joakim then reaches below the bar by introducing the efforts of the blogosphere expecting "guilt by association". Joakim expects guilt for "vitriolic blogging" to be assumed by her rival candadate, a gentleman of vintage and wisdom who hardly understands the crucial difference beteween a cursor, a mouse, and a rodent.
A number of qualified and accomplished candidates are challenging sitting members of the Barnstable Town Council. No municipal leader ignites the mercurial personalities of her critics. Joakim is not only the thermometer for the preverbial "heat in the kitchen" but the barometer of all that is wrong with Barnstable. Accountablility, responsibility, and direction should not be determined by the whimsical weather of "Ole Cape Cod", politically or otherwise.
Navigation through the rough and murky waters has been less than smooth sailing for far to long. Barnstable has a lot to loose in difficult economic times, and Centerville has a lot to gain by considering a venerable, experienced candidate like Joe Pino for Councilor in Precinct Six.
It's time for a more seasoned captain to take the helm.

A Woman's Nation? Maybe That's the Problem!
Do you know who I am? I could be Maria, Caroline, Hillary, Taryn, or the Barnstable Town Councilor from Precinct Six, Janet Swain Joakim! It's a woman's nation! Discussion, dialogue, and discourse perpetually revolves around "shifting" roles and responsibilities. In Barnstable Municipal and County politics, it's about "shifting" responsibility, fault and blame!
If you think you know who I am, then "do as I say, not as I do..."!
Speaking of the Camelot factor and the perversity of the Kennedy mystique...
Janet Swain Joakim of Centerville is the former Barnstable Town Council President and is the incumbent candidate campaigning for Councilor of Precinct Six. Joakim, like Shriver, has been caught on a number of occasions directing the populace to follow her directives, rules, suggestions, instructions, and orders. Janet Joakim's desire to wield power with her own brand of threats and intimidation thrives despite her support of the proverbial, double standard. Less funded, and hardly a stylish competitor for the journalistic icon, Janet Joakim expects voters and constituents to respect and defer to her agenda and judgment.
Like Maria Shriver, Janet Joakim's double standard crosses more than the double line. The health, welfare and safety of innocent parties, including vulnerable men, women and children. Janet Joakim is caught prevaricating and deceiving the unsuspecting general public in Monday nights debate with Candidate Joe Pino. On October 19, 2009, former Barnstable Town Council President Janet Swain Joakim debates past President Joe Pino. The effort served to not only to generate ideas and develop reasonable strategies for improvement.
Unfortunately, President Janet Joakim is caught red-handed in a number of lies, deception and prevarication that exemplifies the poor standard for municipal politicians; the low standard correlates with the poor quality of life for residents and constituents.
Consider the video clip posted of Janet Swain's colossal lie regarding her expectation of $150,000 tax betterments for the Stewart's Creek residents, constituents of a neighboring village. Janet Joakim also reneges on an agreement to support the split-tax with her own constituents. Joe Pino was a solid supporter of the initiative that provides a separate tax classification for residents and and commercial businesses. Pino is the pinnacle of fiscal responsibility. Joakim continues to mismanage funds, initiatives and
Lastly, Janet Joakim claims harassment and intimidation after attacking constituents and adversaries via her own personal blog. Joakim and her supporters maintain an extensive track record for maliciously maligning innocent parties via the Internet. Janet Joakim has yet to assume responsibility for supporting expansion and funding for Housing Assistance Corporation in 2003. Joakim spoke openly before the Barnstable Airport Commission for expansion of this negligent and substandard organization providing medical, treatment and housing services to convicted felons, habitual narcotics addicts and sex offenders.
Good Evening Madam President and Members of the Barnstable Town Council:
The effort to improve the quality of life and sustainability is a noble goal. I now have reservations concerning the sincerity and honest of this endeavor. Although creating a perception that Barnstable is truly the All-America City has been paramount, reality demonstrates that policy toward youth and children has reached an abysmal standard.
With the principle of Open Government, it is no longer possible to minimize the impact of failed social policy. Barnstable, Massachusetts remains a center for policy development for the Democratic Party. Many have suggested that the party needs to move to the center to attract independents, conservative Democrats and the business oriented. This may be true, but the work done on a national level by local democratic figures has greatly advanced a number of special interests. These causes include care and services of the homeless, advancement of universal health care, education reform, palliative and innovative treatment of criminal offenders and most importantly, development of social policy for children.
It is obvious with the mutiny of revered and venerable members of our community that have generously and tirelessly devoted time and energy to the improvement of the standard for living that there are a substantial problems with leadership in Barnstable. I was asked to state publicly that the contributions of members of committees and boards in particular the ZBA are acknowledged and greatly appreciated. This is the official statement of Citizens for Open Government. I was directed to deliver this remark by one Mr. Gary Lopez. Sr and I can reassure you he is sincere...
Madam President, it is obvious that your are not fit to continue “serving” in the role of President of the Barnstable Town Council and your tendency to self-promote and preserve only your self-interest renders you unable to effectively represent your constituents. This includes innocent vulnerable children that live at risk because of impropriety.
In the interests of the children of this community and on their behalf, Citizens for Open Government is demanding your immediate resignation and dismissal.
If you think you know who I am, then "do as I say, not as I do..."!

Although creating a perception that Barnstable is truly the All-America City has been paramount, reality demonstrates that policy toward youth and children has reached an abysmal standard.
With the principle of Open Government, it is no longer possible to minimize the impact of failed social policy. Barnstable, Massachusetts remains a center for policy development for the Democratic Party. Many have suggested that the party needs to move to the center to attract independents, conservative Democrats and the business oriented. This may be true, but the work done on a national level by local democratic figures has greatly advanced a number of special interests. These causes include care and services of the homeless, advancement of universal health care, education reform, palliative and innovative treatment of criminal offenders and most importantly, development of social policy for children.
It is obvious with the mutiny of revered and venerable members of our community that have generously and tirelessly devoted time and energy to the improvement of the standard for living that there are a substantial problems with leadership in Barnstable. I was asked to state publicly that the contributions of members of committees and boards in particular the ZBA are acknowledged and greatly appreciated. This is the official statement of Citizens for Open Government. I was directed to deliver this remark by one Mr. Gary Lopez. Sr and I can reassure you he is sincere...
Madam President, it is obvious that your are not fit to continue “serving” in the role of President of the Barnstable Town Council and your tendency to self-promote and preserve only your self-interest renders you unable to effectively represent your constituents. This includes innocent vulnerable children that live at risk because of impropriety.
In the interests of the children of this community and on their behalf, Citizens for Open Government is demanding your immediate resignation and dismissal.

Welcome to Beautiful Downtown Hyannis!
The Barnstable Human Service Needs Committee was formed in 2001 to analyze problems with the human services industry, including the quality of services at the NOAH Shelter, adjacent Chase Sober House, and The O'Neill/Duffy Clinic providing medical and psychiatric services for the homeless. Under the tenure of Royden Richardson, it was established that a number of clinics and agencies were providing substandard and negligent care and services to convicted felons, habitual narcotics addicts and sex offenders.
The organizations and agencies involved continued to plan a number of extravagant projects an expand negligent care and services to bigger facilities in both downtown Hyannis and neighboring towns on Cape Cod. The committee now includes a number of organizations, agencies and departments, and his headed by liaison, Barnstable Town Cuncilor Janice Barton. The problem has now extended to a number of municipal agencies including the Barnstable Housing Authority and The Barnstable Police Department. Chief Paul MacDonald was hired with reservations after the abrupt dismissal of Chief John Finnegan.
Both MacDonald and Finnegan were found taking vacation trips and jaunts to Florida at taxpayer expense. After an audit peformed by an outside accountant and Mark Milne, Barnstable Chief Financial Officer, it was uncovered that these funds came from the informant slush monies that were meant to be paid to people who do the police department's dirty work. People like me!

Dear Ms. Faustino,
I am currently looking to move my Section 8 Housing Voucher back to The New Bedford Area. My understanding is that the Barnstable Housing Authority administers my Housing Voucher but New Bedford originally awarded me the Section 8 when I became homeless through no fault of my own in 2001.
I have had continued difficulty here in Barnstable with immersion into narcotics infested community and I have worked well with Federal Authorities in regard to public safety in this jurisdiction. There was a lot of difficulty with narcotics trafficking in the former building where I made my residence and my accounts of violence were disputed as “imaginary” and “delusional”. The building was monitored by the DEA and I was participatory in collecting materials and evidence that supports my claim that the local human service establishments here in Barnstable were operating at a negligent standard and public safety was seriously compromised. The allegations implicate local law enforcement and The District Attorney’s Office.
Unfortunately, my own safety has been severely compromised and Judge Donald Carpenter of The Barnstable District Court stated openly and on the record that he could not “guarantee” my safety here in Barnstable. There are significant problems with law enforcement and I am now considered a witness to illegality and corruption thought once to be “imaginary”. I have asked that I be moved to a secure location without having to leave a forwarding address to parties here in Barnstable. I have spoken with an attorney, J. Drew Segadelli in this matter. Kim Gomez of The Barnstable Housing Authority informed me that I could not take my Housing Voucher according to customary protocol and seek a new apartment. She is aware of incidents that I have witnessed here in Barnstable.
I am informing you of my intent to leave Barnstable County and relocate to a safer area without any more interference or further compromise to my personal safety.
Sincerely,
Mary Clements
Here's the gang, and yes, that's Councilor Janice Barton, hiding in the back!

What a Way to Leave Barnstable! So the Politicians Are Full of Hot Air and Your Mother is a Windbag!
Consider a repost of a letter placed below in regard to the efforts of Taryn Thoman, Recall Organizer of President Janet Swain Joakim and current organizer of the efforts against Greg Milne of Precinct 13. Milne represents constituents in the Stewart's Creek locale and the prospect of town-wide sewering and cost of betterment is now a hot button issue for this incompetent woman. Although many had doubts and suspicions over the integrity and intent of Thoman, she was afforded the benefit of the doubt during the efforts regarding Open Meeting of the Voters and the Recall Effort of Joakim in 2008.
Janet Joakim faced substantial and significant challenge from the growing lobby group, Citizens for Open Government. Unfortunately, Taryn Thoman's underhanded antics resulted in the demise of the recall effort. Currently, municipal candidates and their supporters are accused of the annual adventure of political sign stealing.
Some have left Barnstable for bigger and better things, like enjoying life and pursuing justice from afar. Thoman continues to organize and galvanize failed efforts as a political nobody.
Taryn Thoman was charged with criminal harassment in November of 2008. If Thoman hadn't provided the opposition with substantial fodder, she would have been considered credible, and Joakim would have been either asked to resign by her co-councilors or subsequently recalled.
Unfortunately, Thoman continues to make a mockery over municipal politics in Barnstable, jeopardizes the election of new and exciting candidates, and continues to ignore her school-aged child. Thoman was the furthest thing from a child advocate.

Dear Ms. Thoman,
Please consider a sampling of the many pictures, correspondence, and complaints I have made over the past seven years in regard to public safety. I am tremendously sympathetic toward the compromise to Aidan’s health and well being. I appreciate the trust and faith that you had in me. Confiding intimate and personal details of such traumatic events can be disarming for anyone. I’m so hoping for an improvement in the standard for safety that you demand for all children.
I am impressed with your commitment to resolve matters pertaining to child health and welfare and I hope you will continue to make this an integral part of your future plans. I see great promise for you as an advocate for children’s rights. I wish you the best of luck.
Yours truly,
Mary Clements

Dear Mr. Segadelli
Materials pertinent to the investigation of Taryn Thoman have been forwarded to local law enforcement and federal authorities. I have forwarded a number of documents to the families involved in the matter now before Barnstable District Court in regard to Ms. Thoman. Ms. Thoman was aware that I retained your counsel for the matter of criminal harassment and I suggested that she attempt to secure your counsel in this matter several months prior to the charge.
I worked with Ms. Taryn Thoman on matters pertaining to the recall of President Janet Swain Joakim. Ms. Thoman assisted me in the development of my website, www.barnstablesafetynetwork.com. Ms. Thoman also provided me with minimal assistance in the setting up of an email account. Taryn Thoman read my email, collapsed my website, and blamed me for developing obscene graphics of the sitting town council president. Ms. Thoman threatened me and my family physically, and suggested that she would accuse me of harming her child, Aidan Wilcox. Thoman stated that I would be placed permanently in a home for the mentally ill and she would be subsequently able to sue my family for their assets.
I have continued to forward matters pertaining to public safety to attorneys and others with interests in public safety in Hyannis and Barnstable. This includes Mr. Peter Manso and Mr. Christopher H. Worthington. I reminded Ms. Thoman during our six month working relationship intended to remove Joakim from office that matters pertaining to the ongoing compromise in public safety had precedence over the recall of Joakim. Ms. Thoman never understood the convolution of such matters with her actions and jeopardized not only my safety and well-being, but compromised an ongoing criminal investigation in regard to impropriety with multiple departments. I advised her that my telephone line may be tapped and that our conversations were not secure. Ms. Thoman threatened to hire convicted felons to break into the Joakim home on said non-secure telephone line and materials confirming this were forwarded to Joakim.
Although my case in Barnstable District Court has been long closed, materials pertinent to an ongoing investigation have been forwarded to federal authorities. I declined to speak with local law enforcement per an agreement with Judge Joseph Reardon. Because of the stipulation made my Judge Reardon, I have instead forwarded any and all materials including the offensive actions of Taryn Thoman to appropriate authorities. I was contacted in regard to this case by Detective Mark Delaney. Your client, Taryn Thoman harassed me over the Internet referring to me as “crazypants”. I have been identified as a material witness in an ongoing federal investigation. Ms. Thoman’s behavior and actions may have compromised me and henceforth obstructed justice in said ongoing investigation. As you know, you were a witness to the dismissal of an Assistant District Attorney before Judge Donald Carpenter. I continue to forward all materials to the Office of the Attorney General and associated federal agents.
Your decision to represent Ms. Taryn Thoman may constitute a conflict of interest.
Sincerely,
Mary Clements

Just How How Messed Up Are the Criminals on 'Ole Cape Cod? Ask the Homeless!
Consider the architects schematic floor plan for the Dana's Field's Project proposed for the Town of Sandwich before the Zoning Board of Appeals in 2002. Housing Assistant Corporations executives, Rick Presbrey, Livia Davis, and Tom Brigham lobbied for passage of this poorly designed experimental social project for homeless parties, in particular criminal offenders modeled after the Moltrup Farm in Denmark.
The organization was found to house a number of criminal offenders including felons paroled for violent crimes including rape and homicide. Presbrey and Davis initially told the Town of Sandwich, "If you don't want us, we won't come!". The Barnstable Human Service Committee dismantled the makeshift camps after the following concerns were presented before officials in the Town of Barnstable. Letters addressing these concerns are posted below.
Mary Clements
PO Box 134
Marion, MA
August 15, 2003
Mr. John Klimm,
367 Main Street
Hyannis, MA 02601
I understand there is a proposal to combine the Pilot House, Duffy Clinic and HAC/NOAH Shelter into a multi-service center for the homeless in a converted restaurant adjacent to the Barnstable Airport. I was in attendance at the Human Service Needs Committee chaired by Reverend James Scovil of the Hyannis Federated Church in April of 2002.
I was present when Royden Richardson of District 4 introduced a proposal sponsored by the Salvation Army that essentially provided vacant land and public support of unsupervised camping of homeless individuals with chronic substance abuse problems and a variety of untreated psychiatric issues.
The population of homeless utilizing this vacant land would have been concentrated with criminal offenders. The parcel of land suggested in this initiative was directly across from the Stop and Shop Supermarket on Rt. 132. After vocal opposition by local authorities, public safety personnel, and members of the listening public, the proposal was dismissed.
Members of the human service committee remained adamant that allowing public camping without sanitation facilities, proper storage of food items, and necessary support services was perfectly reasonable. I remember being asked by one of the committee members if dismantling the camps was a prudent and necessary action. He was wearing a navy blue suit and told me my answer was a “litmus test”. He was later identified as District Attorney Michael O’Keefe. I answered that it was in the best interest of clients, businessmen and residents collectively.
O'Keefe expressed concern that professionals working with clients had not discussed public health implications at any point previously and in particular to the makeshift camps already in use. Ms. Judy Best RN was not in attendance. Livia Davis had informed me the previous day that no more representatives from HAC/NOAH would be attending the scheduled meetings because they had become “accusatory” in nature.
The following month I was told by Barnstable Human Service Needs Committee Member Alan Burt that the meetings at the Federated Church were now “closed”. Burt explained to me that confidentiality issues were involved and that I could no longer attend. I proceeded to assist him and Reverend Bob Huff of the Salvation Army with the sponsored camping project at Shawme Crowell and the Overnights of Hospitality.
Alan continued to condemn the actions of public officials.
I withdrew all support for the human service advocates at a meeting for the relief effort after Alan Burt organized an effort to resist the potential razing of makeshift camps the following year. He attempted to establish a lobby group, soliciting member of the Council of Churches to protest the “slick and deceptive” action of local authorities. Burt suggested that it was “cruel and inhumane” to remove an obvious public health hazard. Livia Davis was present at this meeting held at Baldwin Hall of The Federated Church in February of 2003. Davis spoke publicly to the Council of Churches on support and funding for the Dana’s Field’s Project.
Recently, I received minutes of the notes from the Barnstable Human Service meetings held at Community Action Committee. Enclosed is the report published by the clinicians of the O’Neill/Duffy Clinic on success and progress of clients at the Pilot House.
It appears that the two main local human service organizations have seized an opportunity to promote expansion. There has been little change in the quality of services that exacerbated the problem. The six people who have been classified as success stories have all appeared intoxicated in or around the apartment complex at 72 North Street and the Cosmetique Parking Lot. The building where I live is considered a “crack house”.
Enclosed are a number of letters that I have forwarded to officials in the Town of Sandwich in regard to The Dana’s Field’s Project. Correspondence indicates my opposition to expansion of this negligent industry to a quiet and unsuspecting town. Plans to build this $11 million dollar farm will not include placement of the 80% of current, chronic offenders in Hyannis. In fact, the local shelter will become the placement of individuals who fall below the standards for rehabilitation in Sandwich.
I have also enclosed architectural floor plans for the facility, including the schematic design for two homes for executives to be built on the premises. Homes for staff are estimated to cost the taxpayer $578,000 for Dana’s Field’s Executive Director Livia Davis and $482,000 for Public Relations Coordinator, Mr. Tom Brigham.
The administration of Housing Assistance Corporation and the attorney representing the organization promised members of The Sandwich Family Association that tenacious and obstreperous clients that could not be rehabilitated would be returned to Hyannis. Rick Presbrey and Michael Princi stated that staff would screen difficult clients out of the applicant pool, so as not to disrupt the quiet, sleepy, Town of Sandwich where the Davis and Brigham families plan to make their homes.
Tax returns for Housing Assistance Corporation (HAC) are included and available for your inspection as the company is classified as a 501C Non-Profit organization. (HAC) has claimed publicly before the Sandwich Zoning Board of Appeals held at the Oak Ridge School that the organization assumes a $200,000 annual loss, but executives keep the shelter open as a “favor to the town of Hyannis”.
This organization is planning the controversial farm project at an $11 million dollar price tag with less than 27% of the funds raised. The ZBA Sandwich hired an independent business consultant that anticipates that according to statistical precedent, the non-profit will face insurmountable difficulty within the first six months and the project is expected to fail completely within the first year.
Housing Assistance Corporation, Community Action Committee and The Duffy Clinic have now joined forces and intend to lobby for municipal funding and support. It appears that the combination of these three agencies and conflicting philosophies will result in the maintenance of the status quo. Lack of direction and mismanagement of funds presents even greater potential harm to both clients of whom they are responsible and the surrounding community in which they must function.
I recommend that you strongly consider the negative impact that previously prevailed when HAC/NOAH and the O’Neill/Duffy Clinic have combined. The organizations are still in proximity to the commercial district and a number of schools. Professionals working at the Pilot House deny that their rehabilitation efforts on chronic clients continue to fail.
The NOAH Shelter has been unable to supervise habitual offenders. The Chase Sober House operated by Housing Assistance has been less than effective and the adjacent O’Neill Satellite of the Duffy Clinic unable to provide services to chronic clientele. Human service providers intend to expand concentrated services to the locale. The drain on financial and human resources including public safety personnel is currently at capacity. The burden on rescue personnel should this plan for combination of services and organizations be brought to fruition will become virtually insurmountable.
The shelter often presents a hostile and aggressive climate that fosters negative behavior as many who are troubled resort to aggression. The organization most often defends the actions of the criminal element and dictates a climate of intimidation and fear. I am concerned that continued support for agencies supporting or tolerating this atmosphere will further compromise not only vulnerable clients and recidivist offenders, but also society at large.
The Pilot House or any provision for displaced campers and chronic offenders was supposed to be a homelike, family style, arrangement enabling clients to develop a sense of purpose and belonging. As many of us feared the project has become a larger facility operating on the same principles by the same providers, with an even lesser rate of efficacy.
I would recommend closure of the NOAH shelter and the development of smaller, scattered group homes to relieve the heavy concentration of criminal narcotic offenders virtually ruling the street of Hyannis. It would be prudent to expect closer supervision of habitual offenders. I have spoken to three different attorneys who state there is sufficient evidence to support a court injunction to protect clients and residents from any further harm caused by the mismanagement at HAC/NOAH and its associated Duffy Clinic.
Sincerely,
Mary Clements, RN

In the fiscal year, 2000, Housing Assistance Corporation generated $14,500 in annual revenue from transitional assistance funds to provide homeless services to indigent clientele in downtown Hyannis. Many of the clients of the local shelter were delivered to the Town of Barnstable from incarceration and recent release from prison facilities off-Cape. Most clients are provided with a one-way bus ticket and promised an opportunity at rehabilitation at this agency catering to criminal offenders.
The organization is within walking distance of a number of elementary secondary schools, and daycare centers. Executives divided the tax funded revenue between seven suborganization including the local shelter, sober house, home for unwed parents on South Street and "Wheels to Work Program.
Livia Davis and Tom Brigham planned an 11.5 million dollar farm project in the conservative, neighboring Town of Sandwich modeled after Davis family farm for criminal offender in Denmark. The organization lobbied Senator Ted Kennedy's Office for funds, filed for $250,000 for the parcel of property purchased through HUD, and appeared on CNN to promote the concept.
In 2003, as Housing Assistance lobbied for an expanded shelter to house clients deemed unfit for the experimental project, it was discovered a number of violent offenders were tied to the shelter and connected with two open homicide investigations.
After pressure on public officials and law enforcement agents that accepted campaign contributions from these executives, the project was placed on hold. The parcel of property has been mortgaged, and there is now a direct effort to recover the clientele yet to be rehabilitated in downtown Hyannis.
Mildred's Chowder House/Fish Landing proposed site, shot down by neighbors and concerned abutters. Stuie Bornstein, you are my hero!
(Click on to enlarge).
This correspondence is stamped received by the Office of Barnstable Town Manager, John Klimm in regard to the effort. The items were privately addressed, the principles fired, no resolution on homeless issues acheived, and political figures effectively covered-up the imminent danger to not only the taxpaying public, but also vulnerable and innocent tourists, businesses,
women and children.
Here is the correspondence forwarded to former Barnstable Assistant Town Manager Joellen Daly from Michael O'Keefe supporting the new site of the shelter at Fish Landing. A number of campaign contributions from exectives and clinicians supporting the Dana's Field's Project were accepted from O'Keefe. Michael Princi, the Attorney representing Housing Assistance before the Zoning Board of Appeals in Sandwich told the Sandwich Family Association that he had made a "number of generous contributions to public officials" that supported the project.
(Click on to enlarge.)
Note Barnstable Town Council President Royden Richardson, and Chairman of the Barnstable Human Service Needs Committee lobbying for the expanded wet shelter for homeless services. The organization continued to lobby for the Dana's Field's Project and Livia Davis is seated among executives. Davis promised the Town of Sandwich that she was going to return unrecovered and unrehabilitated clients to the new facility if they failed at rehabilitation at her project in Sandwich. District Attorney Michael O'Keefe is seated and spoke in favor of expansion of this negligent organization that housed criminal offenders.
There were two open homicides under investigation as O'Keefe lobbied for funds. Both perpetrators were traced to the shelter after O'Keefe and local law enforcement was tipped off about sex offenders tied to the agencies. Royden Richardson was formerly employed by the District Attorney's Office as a Probation Officer. Richardson was dismissed from his duties after a conviction for molesting probationers. His record was sealed.
Now do you see why I think you are stupid, Mike?

Among the Evicted! At Least We Have Taryn Thoman and the Crazy Town Council to Thank for Something!
Photographed above are Pam Parisi and David "Davio Brown" of 75 Pearl Street. During the 2008 Recall Effort of President Janet Swain Joakim initiated by Citizen's for Open Government, Taryn Thoman of Marstons Mills discovered that the tenants of 75 Pearl Street were clients of The Duffy Clinic and The Baybridge Clubhouse for the Mentally Ill . The Duffy Clinic provide health services for the homeless and the indigent. All of the tenants living at the address have been at the mercy of negligent human services. A number of residents of this address were also former clients of the NOAH Shelter. The human services have been the subject of an ongoing investigation involving a number of public officials.
Taryn Thoman was the "official" recall organizer for this initiative and former candidate for Barnstable Charter Commission. Thoman intended, at some point, to campaign against Councilor Janice Barton for the Precinct 12 Council Seat. Thoman was still smarting from her ill-fated race for charter commission and reeling from her flamboyant, melodramatic departure from the Barnstable "No Place for Hate Committee. Taryn herself has unresolved substance abuse and narcotics issues.
During the recall effort of President Janet Joakim, clients were approached by the staff at Baybridge and told that the rent for their clubhouse would rise dramatically if the split-tax intiative were addressed. They were told that their clubhouse would close if they did not appear at the "Open Meeting for Voters" in March of 2008. Councilor Janice Barton of the Barnstable Human Service Committee and former Barnstable Town Council President Janet Joakim arranged for a bus to transport clients from the Baybridge Clubhouse for the Mentally Ill to the venue at Barnstable High School. It was during this effort that Thoman met Parisi, and initiated a controversial conversation that inspired Taryn Thoman.
Apparently, neither Eric "Bugsy" Schwaab of Hyannis, nor Taryn Thoman, have any moral compunction against extortion and blackmail.
Taryn Thoman suggested that she would tape the personal story of my neighbor, Pam Parisi and sell the videocopy to Eric "Bugsy" Schwaab of Hyannis. Sadly, Pam Parisi confided that was romantically involved, at one time, with the father of Councilor Jim Munafo. Schwaab was a former candidate for the Precinct 3 and a contender against Jim Munafo. Eric Schwaab admitted on a tapped telephone line that he would have purchased the item from Thoman for the $50.000. In June of 2008, Thoman stated that a compromising video and audio tape would be worth this amount of money to him. Taryn Thoman and Eric Schwaab of Hyannis consider themselves to be a couple of savvy, political contenders.
Subsquent to the political crisis jeopardizing the council seats of both Barton and Joakim, clients and tenants monitored by the social services began demonstrating erratic and violent behavior. "Davio" began allowing narcotics addicted clients into the building, an intoxicated man expired on the premises, and Brown was transported to the hospital several times. Once he was beaten so badly he left a pool of blood in his path, and on one occasion, he lit his right hand and arm on fire. He sustained third degree burns. Landlords Tom Noonan and Dan Levesque have taken action to evict him.
Another client, David Gorman, threatened me with a firearm in front of witnesses for playing my music, too loudly, at 11AM. He had a substantial history of threatening his former neighbors with weapons, and an exceptional record for firearms possession. He claimed to be the "handyman" for the building, stalking tenants and peering in windows.
During the recall effort and subsequent to the defeat of the initiative, allies of the sitting Barnstable Town Council President had the audacity to suggest that the lobby group was "just using me". I was labelled a poor, distraught, emotionally ill, basket case. Joakim, her ilk, and her most of her ardent enemies hardly understand that I was considered a "material witness" in an ongoing corruption probe. Assistant Barnstable Town Manager and former Barnstable Housing Authority Executive Director, Tom Lynch signed the charther commission paperwork for Taryn Thoman.
Do me a favor, all of you bubble-headed, bovine women that want to run the Town of Barnstable, take your cheating husbands, drop dead, and Go to Hell!
Do not pass go, do not collect $200. Thank you!

Barnstable, MA 02601
Dear Chief Justice O’Neill,
Thank you for your patience in regard to the eviction proceeding brought against me by my landlords, Tom Noonan and Dan Levesque. As you know I was involved in the effort to recall President Janet Swain Joakim from office last November. You may be aware that there were a number of scurrilous comments placed about me on the Internet by President Joakim and related parties. I saved these items for review by attorneys and law enforcement agents that investigate the convolution of political matters and associated agencies. A number of compromised tenants were removed from 75Pearl Street after it was determined that residents were at risk of being taped by Taryn Thoman of Marstons Mills for political purposes. Taryn Thoman’s intent to videotape Pam Parisi to extort Councilor James Munafo out of office was reported to Arlene Crosby of The Duffy Clinic, the Barnstable Police Department and ultimately to the Barnstable Housing Authority. Parisi was immediately relocated to Cromwell Court.
Judge Riley commented this morning that he believed that I was “running one of his colleagues, Judge H. Gregory Williams, into the ground” by suggesting that the judge presiding in this matter misunderstood an item pertaining to a security deposit in this matter.
Clearly, there are a number of political commentators that have many kind things to say about your rulings in regard to the matter before the courts last week. Please consider the documentation enclosed that mentions your name in reference to Internet communications and connections to you and the case brought before the Barnstable District Court. Clearly, Mrs. Taryn Thoman of Marstons Mills holds you in high regard.
Thank you for your time and attention.
Sincerely,
Mary Clements

Falmouth, MA 02540
Dear Mr. Segadelli,
Thank you for representing my interests in the matter of the charge of criminal harassment against me filed in the Barnstable District Court in regard to The Barnstable Police Department . You may be aware that I assisted Ms. Taryn Thoman during the effort to recall President Janet Swain Joakim from office. I also collected signatures for the Open Meeting of the Voters held in Hyannis last spring at her request. Ms. Thoman requested my assistance developing a legitimate lobby and political action committee last January. We were introduced through a mutual acquaintance, Lou Gonzaga of Hyannis. Mr. Gonzaga is currently serving as an official constable here in Barnstable and has long been involved in municipal politics.
When Taryn Thoman was charged with criminal harassment, I recommended that she consider retaining your counsel. Ms. Thoman is responsible for developing obscene graphics of President Janet Swain Joakim and forwarding them from her computer terminal to a number of websites. In addition, Ms. Thoman assisted me in the development of my website, www.barnstablesafetynetwork.com. Taryn Thoman knew my passwords and personal data and ran my website on her server and off her website, taryn@tarynsmirror.com. Thoman continues to blame me for harassing a number of parties and continually posts scurrilous comments about me on local blog sites. Please review her current blog postings on local political websites. Clearly you can see from Thoman’s comments that she intends to post controversial and threatening materials in regard to me on her newly constructed website, www.barnstable411.typepad.com . Please be aware that Ms. Thoman has publicly blamed me for developing the disturbing graphics of President Janet Swain Joakim. Ms. Thoman is aware that I was photographing Councilor Greg Milne at the All-America City Parade under her direction and working at 4pm at the Kennedy Gallery on Main Street subsequent to the parade. My employer and co-workers were present and in my company throughout the day. Ms. Thoman stated that she was at a barbecue at the home of Mr. Tony Pelletier of the Hyannis Civic Association and has alleged that I am at fault for continued harassment of Janet Joakim and her neighbors on Mountain Ash Road.
Tony Pelletier denied that Taryn Thoman was invited to his home on the Fourth of July. It is on the fourth that these graphics were developed and emailed to my website. Ms. Thoman has a history of mailing related obscene graphics to members of Barnstable’s blogosphere. Ms. Thoman’s neighbors, Christine and Ron Howell confirm that Taryn Thoman and her sister Therese Marinelli were home all day on the fourth of July.
You defended me in a criminal harassment charge. Your current client, Taryn Thoman is a former associate of mine. Thoman is blaming me for her actions of criminal harassment. You should be aware that there is ongoing convolution of these matters with local and federal law enforcement. Please consider the blog postings placed on an Internet site by your client. Clearly, Ms. Thoman is suggesting that she has information in regard to my court case and is suggesting that she may post such items on a website. I have contacted the Massachusetts Bar Association and filed a complaint. I am unsure as to whether our conversations and matters were covered by attorney client privilege. It seems that Ms. Thoman is suggesting that you have not maintained an agreement of confidentiality and is threatening to post matters on her website.
Is there not a conflict of interest? I have forwarded these documents to Justice William O’Neill of the Barnstable District Court.
Sincerely,
Mary Clements
Cc. Justice William O’Neill
Wave bye-bye, Pam! At least you got your wish to move to Cromwell Court! The Barnstable District Court are facing a witness tampering allegation, Tom Lynch ain't pasing the smell test, and Taryn Thoman is about to foreclose!

The Long Arm of the Law?.....Martha? Mike? Anytime Now!
The slide show posted above addresses the long term effects of municipal corruption in Barnstable County. The item presented beneath this narrative is excerpted from a website touting the laurels of current Attorney General Martha Coakley and her intent to campaign for the senate seat of the late Ted Kennedy. Posted below is a reprint of the correspondence forwarded to Martha Coakley's Office in regard to the negligent standard of human services in Hyannis and Greater Barnstable.
Christopher H. Worthington, Esq., the father of the homicide victim in Truro demonstrated suffficient interest in the whereabouts of the perpetrator convicted in the homicide of his daughter that he suggested he would approach the sitting attorney general in this matter. Worthington is fomerly associated with the Office of the Attorney General as an assistant criminal prosecutor and a former District Attorney representing Plymouth County.
Worthington was stunned to discover that District Attorney Michael O'Keefe was less then forthcoming about his association with The Barnstable Human Service Committee and Housing Assistance Corporation. O'Keefe accepted a number of campaign contributions from executives representing negligent and substandard organizations providing services to the felon that raped and murdered his daughter, Christa Worthington.
A number of violent offenders were traced to the Hyannis area, specifically as clients of Housing Assistance Corporation and the associated Duffy Clinic. There has been no resolution on the ongoing malfeasance and mismanagement of funds that resulted in a number of offenders concentrated to the Hyannis and Cape Cod area. worthington suggested that the informant should be considered a "material witness" in an ongoing corruption probe of multiple departments and agencies that caused the negligence harming his daughter and her family.
The material witness in this case was threatened with "Obstruction of Justice" on a number of occasions, and charged with "Criminal Harassment", but no solution that involves justice and improvement for the standard for safety for Barnstable County has ultimately been acheived.
Attorney General Martha Coakley huddled with President Obama yesterday in Washington to discuss regulation of the financial industry, a meeting that, while unrelated to her US Senate candidacy, could help her showcase herself as a national player.
The president asked her to discuss regulatory reforms that the White House is pursuing. She was joined by three other attorneys general: Andrew Cuomo of New York, Lisa Madigan of Illinois, and Ray Cooper of North Carolina. Coakley said the four were among a group of prosecutors who cracked down on investment banks and mortgage companies that she said had contributed to the financial crisis. “We’re in the lead in Massachusetts, with suits like Fremont and our settlement with Goldman Sachs,’’ Coakley said in a phone interview, referring to two recent cases. “Other states who are aggressive on this look to Massachusetts.’’
It is clear that Coakley, the front-runner in the Senate Democratic primary, is trying to make the most of her meeting with the president, politically speaking. Her campaign trumpeted the event yesterday on its Facebook page and Twitter feed.
Coakley said she did not view her invitation to the White House as an endorsement of her candidacy. “I’m clearly invited as attorney general and for the work I’ve done as attorney general, but this is a huge issue for people in this country,’’ she said.

Dear Attorney Coakley,
You may be aware of substantial impropriety regarding Housing Assistance Corporation and its convolution with law enforcement in Barnstable County. Negligent and substandard services provided by this organization have compromised safety in downtown Hyannis and Greater Barnstable. Photographs and court documents indicate that the Barnstable District Attorney’s Office is aware of convicted felons, violent offenders and narcotics addicts in proximity to schools, daycare centers and neighborhoods full of children. The human service sector, public officials and law enforcement continue to jeopardize the health, welfare and safety of an unsuspecting public. A number of public officials including law enforcement officials have accepted campaign contributions from these organizations and agencies.
Perpetrators known to The NOAH Shelter, Chase House, O’Neill Center, Pilot House, Duffy Clinic include a number of high profile murders and offenders. Christopher McCowen, convicted in the rape and murder of Christa Worthington, Michael Gentile, serving life for the rape and murder of Melissa Gosule, and Paul Nolin convicted in the rape and murder of young Jonathan Wessner of Falmouth were all clients of the local shelter and patients of community clinics providing services to the indigent. Notorious felons were associated with the Friends of Prisoners Program of Hyannis, The Salvation Army Food Pantry and Soup Kitchen, and Cape Cod Psychiatric Services. In addition, there were a number of violent homicides occurring within the homeless community spanning several decades. Nurses, clinicians and practitioners often prescribed narcotics liberally to patients. This practice succeeded in compounding violence associated with the downtown area.
In 1999, the probation of Christopher McCowen was surrendered by Judge Welsh after he failed to appear at this mandated counseling sessions at Cape Cod Psychiatric Services. McCowen was a patient of Cape Cod Health and Human Services, the outpatient clinic of Cape Cod Psychiatric Services. Cape Cod Psychiatric Services operates a clinic in Orleans, and McCowen was seen as an outpatient at this satellite clinic prior to the homicide of Miss Worthington. Christopher McCowen was diverted into treatment for non-violent offenders at Gosnold Inc./Chris Judson’s Drug Court after her rape and murder in 2002. McCowen lived at three different addresses in Hyannis and was arrested three times by the Barnstable Police Department while on the lamb for her murder. My cooperation with local authorities was elicited in this case, as it was in the homicide of Jonathan Wessner of Falmouth. The arrest of the perpetrator was made after there was a change in the course of the investigation after I provided substantial work product to a number of law enforcement agents including the District Attorney’s Office. Christopher Worthington told me that I should consider myself a “material witness” in an ongoing corruption investigation of Michael O’Keefe and his involvement with the Barnstable Human Service Needs Committee. Mr. Worthington also has copies of the campaign contributions accepted by public officials and law enforcements agents. He was upset about the difficulty this has created for his family and the death of his daughter. I have enclosed receipts for the materials forwarded to Mr. Worthington. He told me to “consider everything relevant.” Mr. Worthington stated that he had connections with you, and was working in cooperation with your office.
In May of 2007, David Gorman, a handyman employed part time in my apartment complex threatened me with a weapon on the premises of this tenancy. I have enclosed his record for weapons possession. He was also a former client of the NOAH Shelter and a patient of psychiatric services at Cape Cod Hospital. Gorman began to stalk and harass me. When I rebuffed his advance, he began making noise complaints about the quality of "church music" I listened to in the mid-morning hours. When the Gorman threatened me, I began to make arrangements to move from this tenancy and from the downtown area.
The Housing Authority was notified of my intent to leave. I was informed that I was aware that I had witnessed impropriety in Barnstable. Kim Gomez, of the BHA told me that their office was told to continue to provide me with services. She also asked me once if I was a “witness”. Gomez stated that she had connection with law enforcement that indicates that this was so. Kim Gomez told me specifically in December of 2008 not to forward any more information to her, not to contact her by telephone or email, and not to visit the office unannounced or without notice. This is a policy of the BHA, and Gomez told me that she did not want to be involved in anyway with my complaints about this tenancy, difficulty with the client/handyman, accounts of violence in the building, or notice of increased narcotics trafficking with specific tenants.
In May of 2008, The Honorable H. Gregory Williams evicted me from my most recent residence. The rent was fully paid at the time I was evicted. I notified the New Bedford Housing Authority that maintains my Section 8 Voucher two days after vacating this unit. Once again, Gomez instructed me to direct all correspondence and concerns to Linda Ramos of the New Bedford Housing Authority. After cooperating with the landlord, Gomez then claimed I did not notify the Barnstable Housing Authority properly. Not only did I forwarded substantial documentation of impropriety to Ramos and the Executive Director of the New Bedford Housing Authority, I immediately made an appointment to discuss concerns with the Leased Housing Department of the New Bedford Housing Authority that granted me this voucher.
On August 5, 2009, Sandra Perry of the Barnstable Housing Authority conducted a review of Gomez decision to terminate my Section 8 Housing Voucher. I presented items that clearly demonstrated that the apartment was not only in disrepair; it became infested with narcotics and associated violence. Numerous documents and photographs indicating that were a number of police and rescue calls were presented to Perry and Gomez. There was a death on the premises after alcohol intoxication and photographs of the coroner removing the body and the Death Certificate of this Duffy Clinic client expiring on the premises was provided. Tenants of this placement were all clients of The Baybridge Clubhouse for the Mentally Ill and The Duffy Clinic. Extensive photographs and documentation of imminent danger, narcotics trafficking, and violence were given to Ms. Perry. These items can be reviewed on www.welcometobarnstable.com.
Sandra Perry, Director of the Barnstable Housing Authority and Kim Gomez, The BHA Leased Housing Coordinator answer, ultimately, to Barnstable Town Manager John Klimm and Assistant Town Manager Tom Lynch. I have enclosed an item that indicates Lynch is closely tied with Housing Assistance Corporation. Both Sandra Perry and Kim Gomez of the Barnstable Housing Authority are former employees of Housing Assistance Corporation. Assistant Town Manager Tom Lynch is the former Executive Director of the Barnstable Housing Authority. Perry and Gomez are both aware of the allegations of impropriety.
Does eviction of a material witness from public housing for insufficient reason constitute witness tampering?
Sincerely,
Mary Clements

Michael K. Loucks, Esq., US Attorney
Casting himself as a fiscal conservative and Washington outsider, Republican State Senator Scott Brown announced his candidacy for the US Senate yesterday, embarking on an uphill race for the seat held by Edward M. Kennedy for nearly half a century.
In a news conference at a downtown Boston hotel, Brown pledged to run a grass-roots campaign focused on lowering taxes and reducing the size of government, and denounced Democratic policies as harmful to economic recovery.
But Scott...Can you get rid of this negligent shelter full of violent sex offenders for us? Your incompetent competition, the soft on crime, liberal, Attorney General Martha Coakley? She wouldn't!
