Complaint Review: Brunswick Maine Police Chief Rizzo

Kelly Proctor was a promising young black male who lived with his mother and sister in the small town of Ayer, Massachusetts. Ayer is a blue collar,predominantly white working class kind of town.  Kelly Proctor was valedictorian of Ayer High School and a star player on the local football team. While Kelly was walking home from a fireworks celebration in his small town with his friends, he was viciously attacked and beaten to death in less than one minute by the Mcguane brothers, both who were much larger and physically stronger than Kelly.  He never had a chance.  Kelly tried to crawl under an SUV to escpae the Mcguanes but died at the scene. He was unarmed.  

The vicious beating was witnessed and the entire Ayer community was in shock after Kelly Proctor's murder. He had been well liked and was attending nearby Nichols College.  Outraged parents said AFTER Kelly Proctor's murder that they had repeatedly contacted Ayer Police Chief Richard Rizzo to complain the Mcguane brothers were bullying and physically assaulting their children - and Rizzo did NOTHING.  The Mcguane family was influential in small town Ayer: one member was on the Board of Selectman (that supervised Police Chief Rizzo and approved his contract), another was married to someone on Rizzo's police department and the local high school gym was named after another relative.  2 standards of justice for Ayer Police Chief Rizzo: one for those from the local powerful families and another for everyone else.  Poor Kelly came from 'everyone else".  

Police Chief Rizzo did NOT investigate Kelly Proctor's death as a hate crime and he worked with Martha Coakley when she was the Middlesex District Attorney.  Why weren't federal hate crime charges sought, Rizzo and Coakley?  After all, the Mcguane brothers had bullied Kelly Proctor previously and evidence of this was brought at trial.  Plus, Rizzo and Coakley did NOT bring in a top quality forensic pathologist and one month before trial, the public paid pathologist - who had botched the cause of death - was exposed so the charges were downgraded from first degree murder to involuntary manslaughter.  The Mcguane brothers were both convicted BUT served only 3 years for murdering an innocent young UNARMED black teenager. The poor kid never had a chance against 2 much larger and stronger assailants. 

After the convicton of the Mcguane brothers, Police Chief Rizzo didn't have his contract renewed for 6 months and he resigned, moved 2 states away and became the new Brunswick (Maine) Police Chief.  While he has been Police Chief in Brunswick, he has allowed an attorney named Mark Waltz to continue to practice his solo law practice while Waltz is paid by the public to work full time days. Waltz also runs a private business called Casco Bay Title LLC which provides real estate title searches.  Rizzo and Waltz have refused local "influential" people who have been aggressively harassing, targeting, threatening and trying to financially exploit a female who owns private property in Brunswick. These people are all direclty associated with a bogus "non profit" called the Brunswick Tospham Land Trust and their Executive Director Angela Twitchell wh is an extreme environmentalist.  The Town Manager John Eldridge refused to have an indepependent investigation of Rizzo and Waltz.  And the entire Brunswick Town Council has refused to investigate the Brunswick Police Chief Rizzo and Captain Mark Waltz.  Waltz has refused to disclose if Angela Twitchell and the Brunswick Topsham Land Trust is a personal client of his  as ATTORNEY Mark Waltz.  Has Brunswick Police Chief Rizzo been allowing Captain Mark Waltz to run a private attorney practice out of the Brunswick Police Department?  Rizzo and Waltz have withheld ALL information from the Brunswick Police Patrol, Supervisory and Dispatch staff and have NOT permitted them to investigate Angela Twitchell and 2 local realtors and a female attorney who may be in on trying to coerce the female property owner or to financially exploit her. Rizzo has been accused of falsifying police reports and the Brunswick Town Council has reportedly received written letters of complaint which they have NOT publicly disclosed.  This is a major public corruption case right now involving a Police Chief and Police Captain and a Town Manager and the entire Town Council.  

Before Police Chief Rizzo arrived in Ayer, Massachusetts, it was already famous for its corruption and fraud.  Ayer Massachusetts was the setting for the false investigation and conviction of an innocent man who spent 18 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. And the District Attorney who could have vacated his sentence years before his innocence was  proven: none other than Massachusetts Attorney General Marth Coakley.  

Justice for Kelly Proctor and Justice for All Women in Brunswick.  

Investigate Brunswick Police Chief Richard Rizzo and Police Captain Mark Waltz and Town Manager John Eldridge and Brunswick Town Council.
