A Remarkable Tragedy And Miscarriage Of Justice

Miscarriages of justice happen. We know this. Yet, the people who willingly allow it to happen continue on with their careers making their way up the sleazy ladder of power.

This coming Tuesday, the people of Massachusetts will go to the polls to choose their Senator in a special election. Up for grabs is the late Edward Kennedy's seat. It was expected to go to Democrat candidate Martha Coakley. However, the Republican Scott Brown has proven to be a formidable opponent.

Why am I bringing all this up?

I just came across a most shocking and disturbing story and it involves Ms. Coakley; currently the Attorney-General for that state. It revolves around the Fells Acres Day Care Center and the witch hunts (which was the rage in the 1980s), and all you have to do is read the links to know these were contemporary lynchings, against the Amirault family. In a nutshell, a family who ran a day center for 30 years were arrested for child molestation on what amounted to no proof. These people were known to the community. How could they suddenly be pedaphiles?

I heard an interview with Howie Carr on AM 620 here in Montreal with Gerald Amirault. My hand covered my mouth in shock as I listened. I was angry, sad and confused all at the same time. How could this happen? How can public servants treat citizens in this way? Will they account for their actions? If not, surely they will have to answer to a higher being some day? It's stories like this I go back and read Dante's Inferno. It reminds me of what evils we're capable of.

What? I consider this injustice to be evil?

Yes. That's because when given the chance to do the right thing and commute these people, Coakley and Janet Swift - who was Governor in 2002 - they inexplicably balked. By that time, everyone knew the innocence of those involved. Alas, they weren't alone. They were the Amirault's last hope and they failed miserably. It all started with District Attorney Scott Harshbarger.   Like I said, evil. Place for each in the Inferno.

Terrorizing tyranny. 


Trust me. It's killing me to not write what I really think about these people.

Amirault is now free but he's a Level 3 sex offender. Meaning, he is under constant surveillance. As I type he has not been exonerated. How bloody ridiculous is all this I demand? Who will once and for all right this wrong? Hopefully, Scott Brown will win and will review this case and be the one to set the course of justice back on its proper path. 

Think of it. An innocent man, his mother and sister are arrested without a fair investigation, but Americans like Coakley want to treat and give murderous terrorists all the best American law can provide? They want to give amnesty to illegal aliens but when it comes to one of their own citizens they destroy them without a blink?

What madness is this?

I've googled this story and what I find amazing is few major papers covered it. Most notable Wall Street Journal and Boston Herald. No New York Times. No Washington Post. And I certainly don't remember hearing Dan Rather or some other major anchormen discussing it.

Which made me wonder about journalism. Miscarriages of justice should always be a major story in my opinion. What good are journalists if they don't report these abuses? When did they unceremoniously abandon their duty to investigate the truth? When you ponder it further, we're so busy "covering" politicians on the campaign trail captivated by the "cult of the personality" we forget to examine the moral fiber of an individual with any substance. Coakley (talk about the gall and arrogance to run for election with this on her soul!)  is a reminder of the type of people in power now. There's no room for a moral compass. All they possess is a title. Little else.


I do believe this is to be a story transcending nationality. This crap can happen to any of us, anytime, anywhere.

On Tuesday, the people of the state of Massachusetts will hopefully vote for Scott Brown; preferably in a landslide.

And then hope that Mr. Brown will bring a certain amount of integrity back to his state.

This post is dedicated to all those who fell before the sword of injustice languishing in jails around the world. This blog stands with you.
