In 1996 my wife Nikki and I rented our first apartment as a married couple in Bourne.After 4 years of paying off student loans and building up our savings, we purchased our first home in Bourne.In 2001 and 2004 we welcomed our two sons – both born at Cape Cod Hospital. As a young family, we settled in the Bourne community, volunteering and in civic service with town boards and committees.
MA General Laws Chapter 276A allows for and governs pre-trial diversion in the district courts. Pre-trial diversion gives qualifying defendants the opportunity to avoid the criminal justice system and preserve their record. My office will seek to identify eligible individuals – those charged with minor, non-violent, and/or non-OUI offenses – as candidates for a diversion program that includes community service.
