Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 06:15:53 GMT

A judge ruled Thursday on the retrial of a man accused of killing a Weymouth police officer and a 77-year-old woman, denying a request from the defense team to delay the trial. Emanuel Lopes is facing charges in connection with the 2018 deaths of Sgt. Michael Chesna and Weymouth resident Vera Adams. A matter of months after Lopes first trial ended without a verdict, there was relief in the courtroom in Dedham this week as the judge announced her decision.“I’m relieved that she didn’t give him what he wanted and we don’t have to wait any longer,” said Chesna’s widow, Cindy Chesna.The state says Lopes, who was 20 in 2018, hit Chesna over the head with a rock before taking his gun and shooting him multiple times in the head and chest. Prosecutors say Lopes also murdered Adams, who was sitting on a nearby porch. Lopes went on trial earlier this year, with his defense arguing he is insane. Jurors began deliberations on June 28 but could not come up with a verdict, leading ...

Suspended pot boss Shannon O’Brien seeks ‘fair hearing’ after suspension from CCC

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 06:15:53 GMT

Massachusetts Treasurer Deb Goldberg was inextricably involved in the personnel matters of the state’s cannabis commission despite Beacon Hill lawmakers intending the board to be independent, lawyers for suspended pot boss Shannon O’Brien said.O’Brien’s lawyers used that argument in a Suffolk Superior courtroom as they pushed for a hearing to determine O’Brien’s fate to be held in public and with what they described as an impartial fact-finder. But state lawyers argued Goldberg, over the course of this year, was doing solely what state law permits.Speaking to reporters after the hearing, O’Brien said if she had a “fair hearing” with an unbiased finder of fact, “I would be successful.” And keep her $181,722-a-year post.“I think that we made our case that the treasurer is not an independent finder of fact. She may be a witness, her general counsel might be a witness. And so ultimately, you can’t allow the person who may be a witness to some of these allegations also be the judge...

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 06:15:53 GMT

Friday marks a turning point for Zach LaVine and the Chicago Bulls.The majority of NBA players become tradable on Dec. 15. Although it’s not a mandatory impetus for action, this date opens the reasonable trade window for the Bulls and the rest of the league.For the first time in the three-year tenure of executive vice president of basketball operations Artūras Karnišovas, the Bulls will cross this threshold as sellers. They’re at the forefront of the market as they aim to trade LaVine by the Feb. 8 deadline — and preferably earlier.LaVine’s departure already has taken on a tone of inevitability in Chicago. Bulls fans are less focused on the “if” than the “when” and “where” of a trade. Determining those answers has been a laborious process over the last month.The Los Angeles Lakers appear to be the clear front-runner for LaVine’s camp. He has been linked to them since his interest in a trade first was reporte...
