Well that explains how she knows how to lie so well. She should take advantage of her title and become a defense attorney, and get the hell outta HPD.

Defense Attorney might be the only thing she can defend herself from. Certainly she couldn't defend herself from the set of stairs at HPD.

Kevin: Having more than twenty-five years of experience dealing with HPD and its many department advocates, I would like to offer my two cents. What HPD really needs is a full time department advocate from outside the department. The practice has always been one which an advocate is assigned, usually later in his/her police career, often with little or no legal experience or training and given a bunch of old cases, pending new cases and cases which arise after the appointment. Most last a short time and usually leave the position more log jammed that when he/she arrived. I know that some will disagree, however, as an officer spend time in the department he/she naturally develops friendships and relationships (both good and bad)with other officers. To then make that officer a department advocate is unrealistic.

After the posting regarding the "new" HPD advocate, many comments were posted, actually a record number of comments for the blog. Several had questioned the credentials of Christine Mertes as an attorney.
Just to be fair, I did check with the Massachusetts Bar Association (MBA) and they confirmed that Christine Mertes is an attorney "in good standing" in the State of Massachusetts.
"JUST TO BE FAIR....."
