A North Andover police officer. A newborn baby taken at four months old. A gunshot to the chest. And now — a criminal trial.
Attotneys Bob Motta and Ali Motta break down recent major pretrial filings in Commonwealth v. Kelsey Fitzsimmons (Essex Superior Court, Indictment 2577CR0311) — the most legally complex case in Massachusetts right now.

✅ The Commonwealth's Motion to ban ALL mention of Kelsey's lost custody and house arrest — and why that matters
✅ Officer Noonan's 2008 armed robbery response — why the prosecution is using it NOW
✅ The Probate and Family Court custody battle happening SIMULTANEOUSLY with the criminal trial
✅ Explosive sworn allegations against the baby's father — drugs, alcohol, breaking and entering, stolen funds
