Status of Michelle McPhee DWI and Cop Assault Case?

[Wimmmex]

Will you be able to catch all 4 hours of the McPhee show today?

IMHO, McPhee's show is best taken in small doses! ;-)

This is all hearsay, and there is no proof that this happened....

OK I stand corrected, I have no proof she called anyone, but the Boston Globe quoted the Troopers report as follows"

"In the report, a trooper wrote that McPhee, 45, had bloodshot eyes and slurred her words.

She told the trooper she worked at a radio station and had “defended cops for 30 years,” according to the report. She mentioned that she was friends with a number of police officials, including the head of the State Police, it said.

“McPhee listed several members of police agencies and Massachusetts State Police Colonel Timothy Alben as friends whom I should contact,” the police report stated.

McPhee later said she had advocated for police for several years and “I should know of her,” the trooper wrote."


My Dad was a cop, I declined appointment to a Department, I have lots of friends who are cops, I have spent enough time in District Courts to know how the game is played, and if you go over to MassCops dot com and read any of the posts abut her, you will see more than one use of the term "Badge Bunny" .

Then you must know cops ALWAYS tell the truth, right? Especially when they are challenged or feel disrespected...or have you missed the news recently.

Again, this was one person's version of the story.

MassCops dot com and read any of the posts abut her, you will see more than one use of the term

You mean go to another anonymous message board, where people can talk trash?

Like most political talk hosts....I'm sure she has a lot of enemies, she has made a lot of people angry.

But what does that have to do with any of the facts here?

As someone who knows how the game is played, you might find this article interesting from the Sunday Time:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/03/opinion/sunday/why-police-officers-lie-under-oath.html?_r=0

fair use excerpt But are police officers necessarily more trustworthy than alleged criminals? I think not. Not just because the police have a special inclination toward confabulation, but because, disturbingly, they have an incentive to lie. In this era of mass incarceration, the police shouldn’t be trusted any more than any other witness, perhaps less so.

Moral of the story, everything is alleged, until it is proven as fact...even if someone is dis-likable.

She's still on the radio?

McPhee claims trooper assaulted her

http://www.bostonherald.com/news/lo..._radio_host_says_she_was_assaulted_by_trooper

[WMEX host Michele] McPhee's lawyer says he has had "'a lot of cases' involving the officer... over the years. He claims the trooper was the aggressor, suffering a minor injury while McPhee was hurt more severely; he also "wants to suppress the results of a blood test taken at the hospital where McPhee was treated for injuries sustained during the scuffle". Both sides are due back in court on March 4.

McPhee claims...

Dog whistle....3....2...1....

Cops lie on OUI reports, using a formulatic narrative that always includes things that can't be disproved, such as "glassy eyes" "erratic operation" and "slurred speech" Going jury waived meas the case is weighed against the rule of law and without the BAC test, prosecutors don't have much. That's why jury-waived OUI trials result in a lot of acquittals -- the judge can't decide because s/he thinks she probably did it, they need proof and a good lawyer can raise reasonable doubt in the copspeak

So the cops-do-no-wrong blabbermouth will be forced to claim cops lied.

Thats the delicious part of this. The hypocrisy.

So the cops-do-no-wrong blabbermouth will be forced to claim cops lied.

I don't think she is ever on the "cops do no wrong" bandwagon. She is of the "Cops have a tough job, and we give them the benefit of the doubt, until they show us otherwise" approach.

Which, IMHO, is the attitude of most citizens.

She had a pretrial hearing last Friday nothing significant happened. If shegoes to trial which she appears to want rather than reach a plea agreement it will be heard in BMC not the South Boston District Court.

Maybe she is just trying to delay things long enough so she can take her Conservative Tours trip to Italy

 

[john garrett]

Actually, the Judge hearing the motions last Friday had to recuse himself after it was disclosed that McPhee had written a derogatory column about him in the Herald several years ago.
