That the only way to describe Mark Boughton's live interview he just completed with the News-Times.
For those who missed it, taking a page from yours truly, the News-Times did a UStream video interview with Mayor Boughton where he answered questions about yesterday's bomb threat. Between he numerous "no comments" issued from the mayor, Boughton gave what can only be considered a flippant and dismissive remark about City Hall not utilizing city's television station (Channel 24) to provide information to the public about the BOMB THREAT EMERGENCY throughout the day.
I'll have a special comment on the mayor's remarks at a later time as the response he gave to Eugene Driscoll can not, and shall not, go unanswered (and don't worry Andrew, I haven't forgotten about you).
04.25.22 (RADIO): WSHU Latino group call on Connecticut lawmakers to open a Danbury charter school
06.03.22 (OP-ED): KUSHNER: "Career Academy ‘a great deal for Danbury"
On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
