Closer look at cases cited by Worcester District Attorney in Ali Bibaud defense raises new questions.

 

Big questions.

 

Surrounded TV reporters armed with questions about his reportedly integral role in the Alli Bibaud case, Worcester County District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr. remained resolute. 

 

District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr.  repeated lines from a sheet of paper he handed to reporters afterward, most notably that all of his employees acted “properly and lawfully.

So what, apparently, for the fact that two state investigations released on April 27 suggested intimate involvement by District Attorney Early and certain of his staff in the former state police head’s decision to improperly alter a police report in the arrest of Ms. Alli Bibaud, the daughter of Dudley District Court First Justice Timothy M. Bibaud, and herself a onetime employee of Worcester District Attorney’s office. 

 

Even so, District Attorney Early maintained that he did not ask for the changes to be made in Ms. Bibaud’s arrest report; specially, seeking to redact from the arrest report that Ms. Bibaud offered a favor to the arresting officer so they might both get off.

However, upon a close review of ninety-one cases cited by Early where arrests reports were subject to changes, such only made the changes endeavored in the Bibaud case look even more extraordinary.

 

Needless to say, innumerable criminal defense attorneys are greatly enjoying seeing this District Attorney as well as at least certain of his assistant district attorneys on the defense.
