Such a heroic news outlet the Globe is. Was it Kevin Cullen who unearthed this?
Why so butthurt?
No, it grew out of the series the Globe did a couple of months ago about our unique system in which criminal cases can be hidden and made to disappear, especially if you're well connected, which is something the Founding Fathers went to some pains to prevent. I could dig up a link if you're really interested, just say the word.

Dig up a link without a paywall, please?
Your local convenience store has non-paywalled links.
Plus you get a crossword puzzle and Andy Capp.

If you want to read it, pay for it.
Do you think Globe reporters are paid with rainbows and sparkles? Good journalism costs money.
Nah
I'll just use the Boston Public Library's website to view it for free. I was just asking Adam if he could post a paywall free link.

How do those boots taste, fascist?
Kind of like courts for party members in the old Soviet Union
How nice to have ones bad deeds swept away so that pension will still arrive.
When Cops become Robbers
