To: Boston
Fire Dept, Personnel Deputy John Coppney & Acting Fire Commissioner
From : Albert
Arroyo ( Firefighter/Fire Prevention )
Subject : My
Status after being exonerated in Federal Court?
Dear Sirs: The
Department received my Demand Letter and requests for information several
months ago but I have yet to receive a response.
I can only assume this
is the usual tactic of the (now prior administration ) is to just ignore
it , knowing from the experiences of many others after so many abuses of
individuals’ rights (especially minorities) continue without challenge
because of the nakedly incestuous relationship City Hall has with
the usual agencies that one normally would have to go for redress:
Specifically Civil
Service, Labor Relations, MCAD and often even Courts often aid and encourage
this sort of lawlessness.
But the facts are:
I was exonerated in
a Court of Law (a Federal Court of Law) because all of the allegations
were false , and were not a result of any action on my behalf or any
Investigation. One of the exhibits even proved that the City knew I was weight
training because it helped my back, and that was all part of a doctor’s
recommendation.
It was
deliberately (with the knowledge and consent and instruction from City
Hall ) contrived primarily to divert attention from the FBI investigation of
City Hall & the Dept. This
occurred because they needed to blame someone after all the notoriety and to
bring it to a conclusion. As usual in Boston they picked a non-legacy minority
when everyone around knows the real story is how the legacy employees abuse the
pension system when they are “King for a Day.”
Another fact is that
I was never a subject of the FBI Investigation, and another fact is that were
no minorities involved in the Pension/Disability Fraud (It was all
Union “Good Guy’s” Chiefs , and the politically-connected.)
I was sacrificed by
the same People who attempted do the same to Firefighter Richard Garcia from
Ladder 21, which was during the active investigation and the FBI told the
Administration they were not interested and he was not involved in the
investigation.
I can imagine the
disappointment and dismay (and a little worry) at City Hall when I was declared
innocent.
But this did not
stop them and after a week of silence City Hall fed a story to the press
(especially the Boston Herald who has scrubbed the story from the
archives) that I was fighting to be reinstated and had a pending
Arbitration hearing.
This was totally
false and wasn't possible as a Labor Law issue or a grievance process
through the Union , because I never had any union help to proceed to
arbitration (you can see from the Text messages from the Union
President the kind of help I got, the same help you get if you are not
a “Good Guy” or a minority). Those pictures are up on our blog to show you
the kind of nasty responses I got from the “Union.”
But most important there was NO REASON TO DO ANY OF
THIS TO ME. I was to be made whole , and means returned as I was before.
My father DIED before I could clear my name.
The real Criminals that perpetrated the “Fraud” on
the Feds were Michael Doherty , Michael Hamrock, District Chief Lucas, Ian
McKenzie , Edmund Street (who told the truth and was given immunity) ,
Reynold Shepard and the people at the Retirement Board who made the Documents
with my name on them, also Karen Glasgow (the same that lied in federal Court
but wasn't charged because they wanted it to end quietly) who was behind
the scenes assuring them they could get away with it.
