Accountability is a no-show of Fernandes Anderson’s goodbye

Tania Fernandes Anderson has a perfect venue to achieve for his Boston City Council “Last Stand” Wednesday. He may have a court of City bathroomThe one in which, according to the federal prosecutors, given him $ 7,000 cash to a squares of kickback.

The gathering theme can be “accountability,” something more lost from the council meeting of rooms.

If anyone attended the meeting did not know corruption and the stealing case against Fernandes Anderson, they thought that the district 7 councilors were ridden by a blowjob of glory. Fernandes Anderson provides a final Hashary wash list of issues he studied for his fires.

All he lowered when he kept financially to go out $ 7,000 more rich.

But the elephant in the room has not been recognized, not Fernandes Anderson, not anyone. Involved the reason Fernandes Anderson won’t go back to joining his former partners made for some instances of headache and gall.

“I went to the world in the same way as I left it, to serve, in the spirit of accountability, in the name that people really believed,” Anerson said Anderson in his farewell. “In my District Surfors 7, thank you. … You are the reason I’m fighting.”

The spirit of WHAT?

He continued: “Because, we will be faithful, the system is set to care for goodness, not truth.

The system is more than the approval of integrity; As a result, Fernandes Anderson arrested and faced the prison when he was sentenced to July 29.

At least, Fernandes Anderson has forgiveness for his covers and his fellow councilors. That work comes from an area of ​​integrity.

The councilor is never a oilier among Massachusettst politicians to walk the crime line.

When embarrassment is the previous speaker at home Sal Dimasi requested for goodness before a Judge in 2011 facing the office I held. “Dimasi has been convicted of helping $ 65,000 in bribes.

The first speaker at home Tom Finnay was sentenced to the Federal Court in 2007 after being convicted of obstructing justice for providing wrong testimonies. Not a proud moment, but he knew the most: “I humiliated myself. I asked my family. I apologize to people in Massachusetts.”

District 7 deserves an apology.

Also the city council, even if some of his teammates are strongly ignored clearly.

Councilor Liz Treto took the floor. “I just want to recognize the contribution and the example of many ways Anderson made us.”

He is an example, for sure, in what happens when a public servant includes their pockets in a shadow deal. Corruption should not be glossed. That’s also, an insult to voters.

District 7 will get a new council, maybe a person who understands the needs and concerns of the covers and fight with good fights for them. The one who understands that a person’s conviction is not referring to a pending cent federal.
