Two readers of the The Crimson (HUPD officers or employees?) showed their arrogance and ignorance questioning me about HUPD negligent training. As requested I directed them to the state statutes and to the property lines of Harvard University. The response was to retaliate by harassing me at my residence owned and operated by the President and Fellows of Harvard College. That is a felony, a violation of the MA state civil rights statute intimidating a person in the free exercise of a constitutionally guaranteed right. Speaking, writing, criticizing private police is a part of that right. The statute makes it clear it is not restricted to abuse by public officials. HUPD claims they are not public officials. Violations of state laws is what drew my attention to scrutinize HUPD in the first place. Happy New Year! You make my point for me. Not only is HUPD negligently trained but they abuse their power freely, which is the problem with most police, especially those who are negligently trained. Threats to have me "hit" accompany the harassment.
Secretary of the Administrative Board John “Jay” L. Ellison , "Cat got your tongue?" CPD spokesperson Daniel M. Riviello, and HUPD spokesperson Steven G. Catalano did not explain the archaic notion of jurisdiction. CPD has lawful jurisdiction anywhere in the City of Cambridge. HUPD's fantasy (negligent training) is that HUPD has exclusive jurisdiction on Harvard University property. HUPD does not have jurisdiction to enforce city ordinances, which is what a noise violation is. The City has a poorly written noise ordinance which is always under review and complaints from annoyed concerned citizens. Nuisance and open container laws are state statutes. Would teaching students and others what laws are, and that troublesome concept of jurisdiction, help improve the conduct of city residents and visitors? Would it impact the constitutionally guaranteed and protected right to pursue a better quality of life?
