No Apologies From Brunswick's Chief Richard Rizzo...Nor Anyone Else? What's Wrong With Our Leaders?

Brunswick's Harmful Facade



Brunswick's a beautiful town of vibrant history, not unlike many small towns across the U.S.A.. Justifiably, many love this town, its history, and people. One can go around life-long superficially cocooned within Brunswick. However, for others once the under belly's revealed one can never "un-know" it and that which once sparkled quickly fades. When window-dressings come down, it's a huge disappointment to say the least, and no Welcome Wagon is going to change that. The red pill moment.







                      





                                

There's a Mystic River quality in Brunswick, particularly in dynamics of connections including blood/family connections.   


"...hairs remain toxic for a year or more, so people still can be affected in subsequent seasons..."
However, the facade's more enchanting here than fictional East Buckingham, and filming location of East Boston. With glowing autumn foliage in tree-lined neighborhoods and the college campus, a towering tribute in an 8-ft. bronze Joshua Chamberlain, Brunswick's a mix of old prestige juxtaposed with a Maine Street of wide "pool table" traffic snarls, an unfortunate number of pedestrian injuries and deaths, horrendous rashes for the unsuspecting as brown tail caterpillar moths' hair float down upon the mall (another story), a beckoning of fabulous shops, and eateries old and new but with woeful lack of parking. Its predominantly blue-collar neighbor, Bath, is hardscrabble, hardworking, unpretentious, and with its elegant Washington Street buildings and houses is also unabashedly proud of its shipbuilding history. Yet Bath's seemingly by far more real, down-to-earth - an antithesis of Brunswick.

Some say author Stephen King had Brunswick in mind when writing It; he'd grown up in adjacent Durham and worked as a janitor for part of one summer in the old Brunswick High School (torn down and replaced, planned obsolescence - yet another story). But for those fully aware of the ugly underneath, it's surely palpable. And just as hideous.




"Tina went to Durham Elementary School with me. There is a goat in every class, the kid who is always left without a chair in musical chairs, the one who winds up wearing the KICK ME HARD sign, the one who stands at the end of the pecking order. This was Tina. Not because she was stupid (she wasn't), and not because her family was peculiar (it was) but because she wore the same clothes to school every day." "Stephen King: How I Wrote Carrie"


Why do they hate me?
The eminence of local newspaper fame previously mentioned ( Qui Bono? ) appears to believe we - more particularly those in agreement with his points of view - as vastly improved and enlightened since the times of our forefathers and writers of the U.S. Constitution. As evidenced by what's happened to Chaz Wing and thousands of other students across the nation, it's hardly the case.




"Brunswick school officials responded Tuesday to an Associated Press story on sexual assault and bullying in K-12 schools that included an interview with a former student at Brunswick Junior High School who said school officials ignored his accusations of being bullied and sexually assaulted by other students."




"I don't want this to happen to other kids," said his mom, Amy Wing.




"From almost his first day of sixth grade in 2010, kids harassed Chaz about his weight and labeled him as 'gay'...Complaining to teachers and administrators at Brunswick Junior High School did not stop the abuse, he said....The bullying escalated to three bathroom rapes during seventh grade, according to sworn testimony by Chaz and statements he made to police, doctors, a child-abuse specialist and a state investigator. Fearing the bullies' threats, he said, he kept quiet about the sexual violence, sliding into depression and refusing to go to school. Finally, in October 2012, after his mom found him curled up in her bed, he confided through his tears, 'They hurt me.'"


A Nationwide problem



As evidenced by the AP article, it appears a clear case where child-abuse experts and examiners' conclusions went ignored. The AP article and Mark Waltz's statement indicates the school resource officer as investigator - did investigation include Mark Waltz's evaluation, a long-time, experienced BPD sexual assault investigator? Why would a school principal's conclusions carry more weight given he had no experience investigating sexual assaults? And since bullying is known sometimes as a precursor to sexual assault, why was the possibility ignored and then downplayed? BPD's Chief Rizzo, ultimately in charge, pursued no charges; did he and all officers involved also fail to provide reporting to the State's DHS of at least reasonable suspicion of sexual assault of a minor which occurred three times at the school? Lastly, one cannot help but also wonder if kidnapping charges were even considered given Chaz Wing's accounts in the same AP article.













This is more than "disturbing" and no positive changes can occur in a community when adults continually fail to protect minors. Chaz Wing requested an apology and denial of such shows a complete lack of empathy. To Chaz Wing, I'm so sorry this happened to you. Please be well.

We'll see positive changes when people begin to confront issues such as these and when communities demand truth.  (Robin McDowell, Reese Dunklin, Emily Schmall, Justin Pritchard).]

Microcosm to Macrocosm - cognitive dissonance and communities' cover-ups to national and global truth about rampant child sexual abuse, child sex trafficking and violence against children:




Child sexual abuse... these actions break our trust, violate our communities and those most vulnerable, our children. Is Brunswick the only one? Sadly, no. Chances are great there are a number of pedophile predators within Brunswick who remain hidden and will never be charged. Could this be someone in your neighborhood? Yes, it's a ubiquitous problem, no community goes untainted, and child sexual abuse crosses all socioeconomic levels and includes even those in highest levels whom we trust.

There are no socioeconomic barriers involving child sexual abuse.










300,000 children sex trafficked in US every year

2 million children sex trafficked globally every year

Average age of child being sex trafficked is 12 years 

























It's time to wake up all Americans.

Qui Bono?

Applicable to Brunswick, too. The microcosm within the macrocosm.



Not much changes in small town, U.S.A. and perhaps it's one of the most endearing qualities if one's wishing to keep the blinkers on. The eminence of local paper fame appears likewise unchanged and unfazed through the years, preferring to look upon those not in lockstep agreement as stupid and deplorable. Curmudgeon and cognitive dissonance personified. Wish it could be lovable curmudgeon, but nope, he's still the same. 

Likewise, it's the same heard from the other side of town... the same complaints about increasing taxes, "what the heck are they doing with our money?", and the same problematic police department still headed by Chief Richard Rizzo also of dubious distinction and previously mentioned.

BPD "lost" seven officers in 2016 according to Rizzo, as he struggles to hire more in 2017, specifically complaining about the lack of qualified applicants...





Rizzo -  extremely concerning, disappointing and not in accordance with the high moral standards expected from (his) officers...we have a great police department... we have high standards and this is really an aberration...it's embarrassing to me, my officers, this town...

Yes, it is. An aberration of high moral standards of Rizzo's police department? Not exactly true. BPD has a history of falsifying police reports, and not only were these actions by some officers but also by Chief Rizzo himself. Also fact, some of Rizzo's officers violated federal and state laws. Is this applicable to just BPD? Sadly, no. The microcosm as evidenced by BPD/Brunswick is as also evident in the macrocosm of our country. Another fact, we have some in law enforcement who are also perpetrators of human trafficking, including child sexual abuse and sex trafficking and drug trafficking/drug rat line protection (see "Timothy Holmseth Update - Serious Findings Disclosed" ). Perhaps it's not that many young people are unqualified or don't want to work long hours, but rather they're more aware of the hypocrisy and bifurcation of our laws. The digital age brings law "enforcement" corruption and crimes readily to the forefront as evidenced by YouTube uploads and CopBlock ("Cop Block/Reporting Police Abuse, Brutality and Corruption - Badges Don't Grant Extra Rights"). One would have to be blind not to see it ... or entrenched in cognitive dissonance.

  


But are all law enforcement corrupt? Thankfully no, there are many excellent people in law enforcement, and many whistleblower police officers who've paid a high price. Some comment that even those officers knowing about the corrupt, criminal practices of others who choose to say nothing are just as corrupt...and the same has been said of those elected and paid town staff, State officials, district attorneys and assistant district attorneys who are similarly choosing to partake and/or look the other way.


How can any of these corrupt machinations be changed? Is there any hope for change? Yes, according to whistleblower Catherine Austin Fitts, President of Solari, Inc., publisher of The Solari Report, managing member of Solari Investment Advisory Services, LLC and former Assistant Secretary of U.S. HUD we have the power to stop the corruption, fraud, abuse and "personal enrichment" slugs. And the greatest impact we as individuals can make is beginning and organizing at the local levels. Fitts says only about five to ten percent of the population are aware/awake, about 80 percent are oblivious, ignorant and only about five to ten percent are "slugs". These slugs are the piggies at the trough looking solely for personal enrichment, personal gain. Follow the money and ask qui bono? (Who benefits?) Further, Fitts reiterates the importance of our U.S.Constitution, it's a "miracle", and anyone proclaiming it's outdated and needs to be replaced likely has ulterior motives. Again, qui bono? If we push for full adherence to the rule of law instead of allowing the bifurcation of it, we'll see positive changes. Alternatively, if we allow those corrupt, criminal slugs to continually "get out of jail free", Fitts is telling us the corruption will become one hundred times worse - it won't ever get better. Fitts says we the people have been financially harvested for many years. And if the vast 80% decline to wake up to the realities, in a very short period of time we'll be witnessing a complete enslavement of the people as that's their goal.
