February’s Meeting
was held at the toasty Dandelion Green Restaurant in
Burlington
and hosted by Ofc Bernie Schipelliti.
Ofc Schipelliti’s guest speaker was the infamous John Sofis
Scheft, Esq. of Law Enforcement Dimensions.
Atty Scheft provided members with handouts addressing three of
the newest law changes for the Commonwealth.
The first was the new marijuana law under MGL c. 94C s. 32L.
Not only did Atty Scheft address the changes, the additions, and
the problems with the law, Members actively addressed their concerns
about the law. Also
discussed were the new bicycle laws under MGL c. 89 and 90, but also
additions to the Aggravated Statutory Rape law under MGL c. 265 s. 22A.
Members were given handouts of each of the laws, complete with
the elements, the case law, and the procedures to address each.
All in all, it was a very productive and informative meeting.
Anyone with additional questions or looking to obtain further

Also at the meeting,
was RMV employee Paul Harkins. Paul
is currently conducting a fundraiser for the Man & Woman of the Year
Campaign for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Funds raised help find a cure for Leukemia, Lymphoma, Hodgkin
Disease, and Melanoma. Funds
also improve the quality of life for patients and their families.
Paul has unfortunately learned first hand the difficulty of these
diseases as he has struggled to fight his wife’s, Cheryl, illness.
