“Jot this date down in your notebook, Paul Perrotti has "no
comment" on the arrest of a Middlebuy fireman for assault and breach of
peace. He had no comment when his father in law was arrested as he and
his father in law followed an elderly man down the stairs at town hall and
screamed at him.
They say it flows downhill from the top, maybe we have what is
called a crises in leadership at the Middlebury Fire Dept.”
Did the arrest of the Middlebury (as it is actually spelled), Firefighter happen in Middlebury? No. Did the arrest occur while Middlebury Fire Department was operating in Waterbury? No.
More important, does Paul Perrotti know exactly what happened that night and all the details of the incident? No.
Then why would he comment on the matter? The fire chief comments on matters that involve Fire Department operations, or Town issues that directly involve the MVFD. Commenting on the event in which many the details are not known would not be prudent. Just as issuing a statement proclaiming the cause of a fire, before the actual cause is known would be a poor idea as well.
Crises in leadership? That’s a new one. Where is the crises? A firefighter gets involved in a bar fight, and it is now the fault of the MVFD leadership. Paul Perrotti is a fire chief, not a den mother. The fire chief is not responsible for what others do outside MVFD operations or functions.

So the guy got into a fight on his own time. Big deal. I bet he pays his taxes...
Because, WE KNOW PAT DOES NOT PAY HIS, but he keeps calling himself a tax payer.
Too bad this cannot be made public. Maybe some of the lemmings following Pat will wake up!
The fact of the matter is, it all could be made public. FOI is not just for the Middlebury Gadfly. My guess is that many people choose to take the high road, instead of getting down in the muck. However, I can assure you all, if anyone chose to exercise THEIR rights under FOI, they'd be certain to find many interesting tidbits about the Middlebury Gadfly. Tax records are public record, as are retirement agreements by State and Local officials, under the right circumstances. Apparently, the gadfly hasn't read all the way through the FOI statutes, or he'd be just a little more cautious.
Please tell me more.
As far as I'm concerned Pat Deangelis has annointed himself as a public figure and he can't hide under the pretext of being a private citizen. He certainly is not entitled to privacy in my view.
