Parenteau in Today's Globe

[stfu]

Parenteau back in Boston after prison
Former WBCN DJ Mark Parenteau is out of prison and back in Boston.

We're told the legendary jock, who pleaded guilty in 2004 to second-degree child sexual abuse, is living at a halfway house in Cambridge and starts a part-time marketing job today for his longtime friend Bill Blumenreich, owner of the Comedy Connection. Parenteau, a prolific partier during his days at 'BCN, was accused of having sex with a 14-year-old boy in Washington, D.C., where he was working at the time as the comedy program director at XM Satellite Radio. For two decades, Parenteau, 56, was a wildly popular radio personality in Boston. Good buddies with Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, he was sometimes referred to as the unofficial sixth member of Aerosmith. Parenteau, who left 'BCN in 1997, served the bulk of his three-year sentence at a federal facility in Lexington, Ky.

Howie Carr mentioned on his show that someone approached him with the thought of having Mark on as a guest.
Howie didn't mention MP by name, but you knew whom he was talking about (and he did say "he
briefly was a talk host here at 'RKO). Howie declined the offer to have Mark on.

 

[Neggy]

well he is not listed as a level 3 sex offender on the Mass SORB website.

 

[TowerBuzz]

Sorb meaning sex offender,...What? what does that abbreviation stand for?.

SORB = Sexual Offender Registry Board

A hypothetical:

if parenteau knocked on your door to let you know he was living in the neighborhood (nudge nudge), would you be star-struck or disgusted?

 

[Varulven]

that's kind of like saying "Do you want to go hunting with the banned one or driving with Mark" 6 of one, half dozen of the other. At the end of the day, you are safer with Mr. Parenteau. He probably is humbled and learned his lesson while, is it "Brooklyndon" now?, err Mr. Brooklyndon is still being a pest.

I think i'd feel much safer knowing my children were away from Parenteau. Thanks for answering my question pops.

Parenteau+Humbled =

Sorry - even Einstein couldn't come up with an answer to that one.

Scientific/clinical fact : there is NO cure or rehab for child molestation.

Other than chemical castration.

Frankly, I believe that a courageous and extremely talented and very popular cable-access TV star will come forward and give Mr. Parenteau his fair day in the court of public opinion.

Think of how many more people would tune in that Tuesday to hear the sad tales of Oedipus' mistreatment, by these twin titans of radio (well, used to be on radio and never will again be on radio).

The only way justice can be served is by having these victims of persecution speak their respective peace.

And then hold hands and sing "Over the Rainbow" over the closing credits (assuming there are closing credits)......

 

[Varulven]

Yeah, well at least Mark has a chance of being invited. Pretty tough now that you've lost the gig, isn't it, "Banned one".

 

[TowerBuzz]

[EDIT] Mark Parenteau ruined his own its only news that he got out because of who he used to be. Regualr disgusting people like him are released from prison everyday and nobody cares.

[EDIT=personal attack.]

 

[stfu]

I'm sure there is no lack of first hand witnesses @ XM to the events that led Parenteau to his fate. Make sure they are also invited on the TV show.

These posts remind of the recent TV commercials where Steve Carell was interviewing himself for the movie "Little Miss Sunshine". ;D

You mean that all of greater Malden will never see me?

My career is now over.

parenteau is a [EDIT] no matter what he achieved at wbcn. what matters today is that he is a convicted sex offender and a pedophile who ruined someone eles's life forever. if it was your son that he molested, i wonder if you'd be still glorifying him on these boards. then again you're one twisted [EDIT] yourself so it's not surprising how you defend him here.


[EDIT=vulgar language]

 

[LMFAO]

Parenteau is poor, misunderstood man that's the victim of discrimination against gays, just like his only pal.

At least Parenteau isn't taking money from the state--yet.
