Yeah, you go to any bar in Cambridge and everyone knew for a long time. A lot of folks (ladies) didn’t want to speak out for fear of not being able to score another job in the area.

When I worked for the ME in the late 2000s my GF at the time wouldn’t come visit me ‘cause Joseph used to call her at like 2am and ask what she was up to. I don’t know how I didn’t see that as a red flag.

Cathy used to cover for his shit also.
