2:09:44Now PlayingIn this episode, we unpack a whirlwind week of legal maneuvers and local drama. We start with a comprehensive Kelsey Fitzsimmons recap, then, we shift gears to the Afroman civil trial. What happens when a viral music video meets a lawsuit from the law enforcement officers who raided his home? We discuss the intersection of art, privacy, and the police.
Back in Canton, the tension at the Selectboard meeting reaches a boiling point. We analyze Chris Albert’s official statement, the public reaction, and how the town’s leadership is navigating the intense scrutiny. Plus, we dive into the details of the infamous 400-person party, examining the social ties between Peg O’Keefe and the McAlberts and why this gathering has become a focal point for those questioning the official narrative.
Finally, we cover two major breaks in the professional and legal world:
Kelly Dever’s resignation from the Boston Police Department—because she wants to (!) and Aidan Kearney (Turtleboy) loses a key battle as his motion to dismiss the Cosgrove charges is denied. We explain the legal reasoning behind the judge's decision and what it means for the upcoming trial.
