In what all but assuredly only adds to the pain of how at least a few Quincy police officers clearly appear to be under at least scrutiny for enabling a Massachusetts State Police house whacker get off, along comes a story out of Hyannis that involves the son of the Massachusetts State Police Colonel.
The son of a gun was found last February “… slummed over the wheel of his jeep in a parking lot …” behind an Irish-themed bar in Hyannis, smelling of alcohol, a number of unsecured firearms in the passenger seat area of his ride, as well as assorted boxes of ammunition also not properly secured per applicable law.

While the Barnstable did not arrest the head of state police’s son, they did refer the matter along to the Barnstable County District Attorney as well as one can only hope confiscated the kid’s pieces and bullets.
The Barnstable District Attorney then, unlike as was apparently grifted for the Quincy house whacker, opted to pursue a public clerk magistrate hearing as well as also reached out to Lawrence District Court to borrow one of its clerk magistrates to hear the case so as to endeavor to avoid charges of impropriety or favoritism.

On Tuesday, the clerk magistrate decided that the gun-packing son of gun should face charges with improperly storing firearms.
The son of a gun got lucky as the keys to his jeep were not in the ignition and his ride was parked in a privately-owned parking lot.
As one can only reasonably assume, the matter has received featured coverage by many of the area news media outlets, including video coverage by Boston 25, text coverage by both The Boston Globe, and WHDH Channel 7, various other regional news media as well as the only de rigueur roasting by Howie Carr earlier this month.

Mayor Koch refuses to fire incompetent department heads, so voters are now left to fire our incompetent mayor at the ballot box next year. Enough is enough.
Jules,
One must remember that Quincy’s police chief is one of the mayor’s brothers-in-law and, well, you know …
There is however, some good news: at Monday’s City Council review of our peerless mayor’s FY2023 budget, the chief announced that he will have to retire next year given his soon reaching mandatory retirement age.
Assuming, that is, he is not otherwise behooved to stepdown sooner.
Koch will likely find him an overpaid, no-show, do-nothing “position”
The Quincy Police Department lost its integrity under Keenen’s leadership.
Police Chief Keenen’s legacy is disgraceful.
Koch doesn’t care; they are laughing at us!
Will be happy to see that corrupt lying cop and, later, his brother-in-law, Mayor Koch, go!
Even so, taxpayers will be left paying the high salaries of Cheif Keenen and Mayor Koch’s children for decades to come.
Merry Christmas!
I would bet both my plums that the super trooper who drove into the house in Quincy was armed and dangerous during impact.
