Smoking Gun? [Re Weinberger Knew of Burlington Police Chief s Anonymous Twitter Account, December 15]: There is one way to get to the bottom of the mayor s apparently false account of the actions he claims to have taken when he learned of the chief s online activities. If he took the chief s gun and badge, there would be documentation at the police department regarding the disposition of those sensitive items. In fact, there should be a record of the mayor turning them in within a day or so of him taking them from the chief. Such records would give great weight to the mayor s version of events. A lack of such records well, just sayin .

Vermont Business Magazine Attorney General TJ Donovan, Burlington Mayor Miro Weinberger, Chittenden County State’s Attorney Sarah George, Vermont State Police, and the Burlington Police Department today announced the conclusion of their criminal investigation into the former St Joseph’s Orphanage in Burlington. No charges will be brought involving the Orphanage, which closed in 1974.
Due to the statutes of limitation, which limit the timeframe during which criminal charges can be brought by the state, only the crime of murder would have been prosecutable due to the passage of time since the events of the allegations. Sufficient evidence to support a murder charge was not found.
