Constitutional Law

KingCast to cover 10:15 a.m. McCrea/Yoon/Flaherty press conference on Menino's missing emails.

By Christopher King

Here's a story about Mayor Menino and his buddy (read: Chief of Policy and Planning and their willful email destruction of public emails. Here's the Globe version, Slack and Levinson on it. Here's the Bostonist story, "Here's a post from earlier today regarding the Open Records lawsuit of McCrea et al. v Flaherty et al. Gosh knows I've seen MA big business and NH government get away with Bloody Murder when it comes to destroying emails. Those of you who know this blog know that very well; I'll put up links tomorrow if I feel like it but the relevant case law is all over this blog as recently as last year.

PS: We all know that no email is ever truly destroyed; it's really a matter of whether or not the Court will enforce the friggin' law. Judge Reginald Lindsey -- in a multiple Plaintiff lawsuit in which I was involved -- did not. Perhaps that's why he was overruled on other major cases like the Silver Bullet case with Kevan Fulmer.

Anyway, the press conference is Monday morning at City Hall. See you there, or you can watch it right here!
