Worked with Jane many years ago, nice lady, not Chief material. Anytime you have a bunch of cops supporting one of their own to be Chief bells should go off. Its happened a few times in Southborough, Chief Baker-mistake, Chief Colleary-mistake and now Jane. Wish her the best of luck but in the end my gut says that the town will regret this decision.

Deborah,

You raise interesting issues, but it is clear the BOS will NEVER, EVER release the Badgequest results. One has to assume that those results do NOT put Moran on top, because if they did, the BOS would be willing to release the report. It is a simple as that. By hiding the report, it is saying that they went against the recommendation of Badgequest. Adding salt to the wound, the BOS relied on a search committee with a chair that has been ridiculed and a committee that had no one with law enforcement experience. A black and bloody eye for the town grows each day the BOS hide behind this farce.

I stay anonymous on blogs because of potential wack jobs who may be reading. As I have said before, Southborough may be a small town but the Internet is a huge place. Rest assured, I am not anonymous where it matters and voice my opinion often where it can be heard and do some good.

Jane Moran already IS an asset to our community and, thankfully, will continue to be so for many more years. The fact that you and others like you cannot or do not want to see that, speaks volumes.

Yes, John you are right and I apologize. I am done now.

I think we’ve beat this dead horse enough. Time to put it to rest and prepare for the holidays.

Anonymous, The fact that you hide behind your anonmimity shows your closed mindedness to hear clearly. The town of Southboro has lost in this case. I DO know that whatever/where ever Lt.Shastany may choose for his future endeavors he WILL be an asset to that community!!!

“To Steve” that’s right, when you disagree with someone, insult them instead of maturely arguing your postition. Always a nice touch!

Deborah,

I didn’thear anything quite that clear except a man being interviewed for the position of chief of police who told his interviewers he wasn’t a smart man. After that, I couldn’t hear much more. Again, if you were there on Tuesday and Monday, why didn’t you “speak up and DEMAND that the recommendations be published.” Lots of talk on this blog, very little talk or action in the place where it could do some good.

As a taxpayer I feel that it is our right and the selectmens obligation to release the findings and recommendations of Badgequest! Their recommendations should be public record. Isn’t anyone else in the least bit inquizative as to why it won’t be made public??? My speculations are….it WILL reveal that Jane Moran is not the best candidate for the job. (not rocket science people) Lt.Shastany’s opening statement and Mr.Giorlandino’s basis for evaluating the best candidate mirrored each other. AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT HEARD THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! For those of us that think that this is just a waste of time and money. You all should speak up and DEMAND that the recommendations be published. You don’t buy a car without being informed. Why then would you settle for handpicked letters of reccomendation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SPEAK OUT PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
