The Natick Narc

D.A.R.E WORKS!!!!!

Sort of makes you wonder why there even is a pot charge, no?

After all,
this kid isn't seeing one.

"Natick man says parents knew of his drug business; Mother, stepfather deny allegation; both are lawyers" by Erica Noonan and Matt Rocheleau, Globe Staff | Globe Correspondent | August 20, 2009

NATICK - A 20-year-old Natick man accused of dealing marijuana out of his home told police his mother and stepfather, both prominent lawyers, knew about his drug business and failed to stop it, according to court documents.

However, Kathy Jo Cook, former president of the Women’s Bar Association of Massachusetts, and Timothy Wilton, a professor at Suffolk University Law School, denied the allegations in a statement last night.

Jonathon Cook, 20, was arrested Friday after police served a search warrant at his family’s home on Glen Street. Police said they found 15 bags of marijuana, a scale and other paraphernalia, and three weapons: a shotgun, a set of brass knuckles, and a double-edged throwing knife.

According to a police report on file in Natick District Court, Cook told officers that his stepfather helped him build a room to grow marijuana and shared in profits from drug dealing. Cook told investigators his mother instructed him to burn marijuana he had before calling police about a shooting at the family home July 31.

If THAT is true, then the PARENTS MUST HAVE KNOWN because IT SMELLS!!!

You can't NOT KNOW the kid has a GARDEN of WEED DOWN THERE because YOU WOULD SMELL IT!

Cook was arraigned Tuesday on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, drug violation in a school zone, and firearms violations. He was ordered held on $50,000 bail.

“As a family, we care so much about Jonathon, which makes this situation extraordinarily difficult for us,’’ his mother and stepfather said in their statement. “We are not only extremely concerned about Jonathon and the charges against him, but also saddened to hear about the allegations against us. These allegations are false, and we were extremely surprised to hear about them. As lawyers, we have deep faith in the legal system, and are confident that as this matter unfolds, the truth will surface.’’

Police Chief Nicholas S. Mabardy said police are investigating Cook’s allegations, but have so far found no evidence to support them.

You better hope they send you to jail, kiddo!

News of the family’s trouble shocked the affluent neighborhood near the Wellesley line. “We’re afraid,’’ said Benjamin King, a neighbor. “I think it’s pretty scary with what’s been going on over there the past couple of weeks.’’

The police report said detectives started investigating Cook after he was shot in the hand during a home invasion reported July 31. Cook said he was shot by an unidentified rifle-wielding assailant who broke in to the basement and attacked Cook and a friend. No arrest has been made in that case.

When police searched Cook’s home Friday, they discovered an area of the basement that had been converted to grow marijuana, with lighting, timers, and irrigation, the police report said.

Then the PARENTS HAD to have KNOWN!!!

They would have SEEN it in the WATER and ELECTRICITY BILLS!!

So the COPS are COVERING UP the PARENTS ROLE, aren't they?

In addition to the weapons, police confiscated $700 in cash with serial numbers matching bills used in “controlled buys’’ made recently by undercover officers, the report said.

Oh, so THAT'S WHAT the BOSTON P.D. needs ASSAULT WEAPONS for?

Yup, got time to cruise the strip, bust brothels, hang out in bars, buy drugs, and worry about cellphones while ROBBERIES, RAPES, and MURDERS go UNSOLVED!!!

And that "good Samaritan" you thought you saw?

Earlier this month, police wrapped up a 30-day sting involving plainclothes officers mimicking tourists and other pedestrians. Once they were panhandled, they essentially became victims guaranteed to show up for a trial

And now they are worried about
bikes?

Time to DECRIMINALIZE DRUGS, folks!

Of course, that WILL NOT HAPPEN HERE because of the VESTED INTERESTS AGAINST IT -- namely chemical companies, health conglomerates, and government fascistas.


After his arrest, Cook told police that he had sold marijuana while living in Framingham, but stopped a year ago when he got a job installing fire suppression systems. In recent months, he lost his job, moved back into his family’s home, and began selling marijuana again, according to the police report filed by Detective Daniel R. Brogan.

Police records show Jonathon Cook has an outstanding restraining order, taken out by a 20-year-old Framingham woman last November. Cook said that his parents were aware of his drug activity and that he sold marijuana to his stepfather as recently as a month ago, the police report said.

Yeah, you better be hoping for some jail time, guy.

I wouldn't want to go home after this stunt, true or not.

He also said Wilton had stolen marijuana from him. He told investigators he and Wilton were growing plants together in the basement and had agreed to split the profits.

Just wondering why a pair of lawyers would feel the need, especially when cocaine is their drug not shitty ole weed.

Talk about SELLING STEP-DAD down the river!

Cook told police that after the shooting on July 31, his mother became upset and instructed him to destroy five plants by burning them in the family’s backyard. Kathy Jo Cook is an attorney with the Boston law firm Wagner Cook Frieberger & Washienko. Wilton, a former trial attorney, is a full-time faculty member at Suffolk Law School. Calls to their offices and home were not returned yesterday.

Suffolk had no comment on the allegations, spokesman Greg Gatlin said Wednesday. The Middlesex district attorney’s office refused further comment on the case yesterday, said spokesman Corey Welford.
