Howie Carr’s Take on Arlington’s ‘Moonbats’

The Boston Herald columnist wrote about the recent news with James Marzilli and Annie LaCourt on Sunday.

Howie Carr, the Boston Herald columnist and conservative talk radio host, gave his take Sunday on the two former Arlington politicians who have recently been in the news for the wrong reasons. In his Sunday column, “Partying like the moonbats,” Carr wrote about former state Sen. James Marzilli, who is facing new accusations in Watertown but no new charges, and former Selectwoman Annie LaCourt, who, along with her husband, is being charged in connection with an Oct. 19 underage drinking party at their Chatham Street home. Carr's column: For the moonbats of Arlington, these are the best of times, these are the worst of times, to coin a phrase. On the positive side for the pony-tailed, trust-funded, Birkenstock-clad geriatric hippies of …

Report: James Marzilli Facing New Accusations

He will not be charged this time around, according to the Fox 25 News report.

James Marzilli, the former state senator from Arlington who pleaded guilty last year to lewdly harassing four women on the streets of Lowell in 2008, is facing new accusations, but he will not be charged, according to a Fox 25 News report this evening. Roughly three weeks ago, on Friday, Oct. 26, Marzilli allegedly stood in the doorway of his Watertown home, wearing only a dress shirt, and watched a female neighbor do yard work, according to the report. After about 10 minutes, the woman called police when Marzilli touched his bare thigh, Fox reports. Marzilli told police that he was wearing shorts at the time of the incident, but the neighbor disputed this claim, according to the report. Watertown police told Fox that Marzilli will not be …

Does James Marzilli Deserve His State Pension?

The state Retirement Board granted the former state senator from Arlington his pension Thursday. Do you agree with the board's ruling? Let us know by posting a comment below.

James Marzilli, the former state senator from Arlington who pleaded guilty last year to lewdly harassing four women on the streets of Lowell in 2008, will receive his $14,000-per-year state pension, according to an AP report on Boston.com. The state Retirement Board granted Marzilli his pension Thursday after determining that his crimes “were not connected to his official duties as a lawmaker,” according to the report. Marzilli had been seeking a pension of $26,000 per year, which, under an old law, is given to incumbents who lost an election. Marzilli, a Democrat, resigned in November 2008, prior to the election. State Sen. Ken Donnelly now fills the seat that he vacated. In his career, Marzilli was also a member of the state House of …
