Feeling emboldened from just having finished reading POVERTY, BY AMERICA by Matthew Desmond, I approached Gary and suggested that the profits from your wife’s unused cannabis license could do a lot of good, could help the 326 Littleton households enrolled in SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition […]

Someone I have never met wrote this to me in a FB thread: Anyone who was in town when you were leading our town as a member of the Select Board knows what you’re capable of. You lied to us then and you lie now. You’re “stunned” someone you’ve never spoken to doesn’t trust you? […]

It’s the weekend, and I thought you all might like to play a grown-up version of “Hidden Pictures” from HIGHLIGHTS Magazine. Instead of a sketch drawing, I’m going to show you a document that was forwarded to me in mid-November. As you read through, see if you can pick out all the things hiding in […]

On paper, your wife’s special permit to build out the Apothecary in Suite 4 at 160 Ayer Road lapsed on September 20, 2023. On September 21st, I went to 160 Ayer Road and looked in the window at Suite 4. Dust and grime and cobwebs coated surfaces and collected in corners. I have to tell […]

One big check, Matthew, which, reportedly was “sixty-six thousand, no sixty-two thousand . . . it was in the sixties,” […]

Soon after my dad’s 52nd birthday, he was diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer and given six months to live. He managed to live nine and died in the house he and my mother built. I was there. She was there. My sister was there. My dad died when I was 27, which, to 27-year-old […]

Of all the information that Tom Porell shared with me over the phone on Valentine’s Day 2023—and then later on April 13, 2023, in person—the most surprising was not about Matthew’s wife and suspicions she’d been paid not to open. As disturbing as that notion was, what came as a far greater shock to me […]

On the 31st of August, after confirming that the attorney who’d represented your wife in our lawsuit (Nov 2019-Apr 2021) no longer represented her in that matter, I sent a very generous offer to your wife. I did not receive a reply from her. On the same day your wife’s special permit with the Planning […]

In early 2019, your wife and I met Attorney Blake Mensing at some totally lame cannabis mixer where we had to suffer through a presentation about something cannabis related.
