More on Gloucester

As someone who grew up in G-town, I’m really saddened to see what’s going on down there.
Nonetheless, for further information, the indictments are available here.
The main charge of course is doing public business in private.  If you look at Gloucester’s Board of Supervisor’s Minutes for the January 2, 2008 meeting you will see that the old [...]
