Rep. Charlie Murphy (D-Burlington) had this to say about the mounting corruption scandals at the Probation Department:
“Is there any evidence to suggest that jobs are for sale?’’
To which Humble Elias rhetorically responded (after much ranting and raving):
"Mark my words the Feds will get in on this thing sooner or later and that will not end well for anyone."
And now today, this is the headline in the Boston Globe....I guess Rep Murphy got the answer to his question.
Sometimes my powers of divination appall even me.

Nevertheless, there is still time to turn scandal into success, what is needed is a strong commitment to judicial reform, one that increases transparency, removes the prospect of corrupt temptations, keeps the boodlers out and makes the probation process efficient and effective.
Any takers out there?
Anyone prepared to make the counter argument on this basis??
