This man showed the world how corrupt John Fanning, Matt Dunne, Brian Tully, Nick Guarino, Lynn Beland, & Michael Morrissey are.
Anyone who says a vast conspiracy can’t happen in Norfolk County needs to look no farther than the incredible injustice done to Sandra & her baby.
Michael Morrissey’s attempt to deflect blame onto the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for his decision not to file murder charges against Matthew Farwell, is a masterclass in bureaucratic cowardice and utter tone-deafness. Claiming his office was 'constrained' by the initial suicide finding completely insults the intelligence of the public.
As District Attorney, Morrissey had the resources, the authority, and the fundamental duty to hire independent experts when the evidence surrounding Sandra Birchmore’s death so clearly demanded a deeper look—something the family and federal investigators successfully managed to do without his help.
Instead of taking accountability for an egregious failure of local justice, he chose to pass the buck.
Morrissey deserves every shred of criticism he is receiving, and it is entirely fitting that he leaves office in absolute disgrace. That's how he will be remembered, no matter how many self-serving statements he makes.
@GrantSmithEllis You know what would help with the closure? Never seeing his meatball head and body again. And I live in his City so that’s gonna be hard.
