WGBH : In his report, inspector general Jeffrey Shapiro concluded that the former mayor “unjustly enriched himself”

In his report, inspector general Jeffrey Shapiro concluded that the former mayor “unjustly enriched himself” and may have violated state ethics laws. He recommended the city council provide detailed information about the bonus payments to the State Ethics Commission “to determine whether he violated the Commonwealth’s conflict of interest law.” Last year, Everett’s city council asked the ethics commission to open an inquiry.
