Atkinson controversy continues post-election
ATKINSON — Newly elected Selectman Phil Consentino said yesterday he has complained to the state Human Rights Commission, the Attorney General’s Office and the U.S. Postal Service about the distribution in town and disclosure of details from a human rights case and confidential settlement.
Consentino also said he has hired an attorney who has private investigators looking into the matter.
Consentino, the town’s former longtime police chief, said the information went to people’s homes, town employees and senior citizens he knew when he was the town’s elderly affairs director, both in stamped, anonymously sent mail postmarked in Boston and handouts dropped in their mailboxes and at homes.
It happened before the town election in March and again since his election as selectman.
“I wish they’d leave me the hell alone,” Consentino said.
A complaint Atkinson police dispatcher Lynne Cunningham filed against the town last year with the Human Rights Commission was sealed.
Cunningham and the town reached an out-of-court settlement for $50,000.
Consentino has declined to comment about the Cunningham case.
He was terminated as chief and elderly affairs director last year “for cause.” Officials have not disclosed why and Consentino was questioned by citizens about the dismissal during the selectman’s campaign.
Consentino admitted he was offended by an attachment to a commission document he saw in town that he said read, “predator alert.”
“That’s as close to defamation of character as you can get,” he said.
The information has caused himself and his family aggravation and humiliation, he said. He said there would never be enough punishment for the individuals involved to satisfy him.
Consentino said he knows who distributed the information in town, because their actions were witnessed by others, but he wouldn’t identify them.
“I’m not interested in what it said. My point is, if this letter was sealed by a state agency then how did this information get released?” Consentino asked.

Same way you hid things from us. You are a pervert period! How come you can work for the town when in your "deal" you are bared from this?
Now how will you investigate this poor victim girl,,,,again? How will your private dicks measure her willingness to comply with your latest elevations,,, I mean reservations? Will they pat down the usual suspects???? How will they feel up the facts???? Will they rack the suspects? Or just look at the rack,,,I mean facts. GET YOUR RACKS STRAIGHT! Uh,,,,facts.
Could be the private dicks won't get the racks straight! Cause the limp details won't elevate. Will another below the belt investigation be ordered by the judge?
You can't just go and investigate everyone you think might be involved, without any evidence.
Notice that Consentino isn't saying the facts of the complaint that got out to the public aren't TRUE, but he's upset that the facts he wanted sealed got out.
He wants to punish the people that got the truth about his perversion exposed identified, punished, fined and jailed for telling the truth. How sick is that?
Mr. Consentino you are a disgrace to your wife, children, yourself, citizens of the town you raped, and the people that served under you while serving as a police officer. You have dishonored your position of authority while pressuring a defensive female under your control to do you sexual favors in order to keep her job. How sick is that?
You are a contemptible slim ball that should be scorned by every decent person that comes in contact with you.
It's time for you to own up to all you have done in the past, resign from you position as selectman, apologize to Mrs. Cunningham and the citizens you served, in public and then get help for your mental sickness. Perhaps then you might get some forgiveness.
You would think if those guys had wives and children they would all resign. Not to mention the Monday night phonies. The other rump swabs that disgrace themselves on ActTV every Monday night. Monday nights! What do your honorable wives say, sirs? Since my A$$ didn't get patted yet I support him? Really?!
They get a taste of hot Italian sausage will they will laugh at your chicken hot dog!! BAWLKK, buk, buk, BAWLKK!!!
Too chicken to resign, too complicit of corruption to be tolerated or allowed.
He acts like the injured party here!! Truly out of touch with reality and cetainly a psychopath. No remorse at all.
Resign!!! End the circus!!!
What good is an ethics committee if they do nothing?
You have to petition the ethics committee if you want them to look into something.
What the heck for, it is right under their noses!
That's the procedure. Read the ordinance, this was voted on!
They are all town employees or volunteers!! They are are in on it together!!
All the elderly drivers, the building inspectors the town hall employees, and the Murreys. This looks very, very bad for the non believers of the existance of Atkinson organized corruption. The same people who show up and vote for everything they want at town meeting and are anti-taxpayer. If you vote against them, you're it. Take down their names.
What about our good neighbors that couple living with no occupant permit on Valcat Rd. They owe support big time. Everybody knows why too. Then there's selectman Baldwin. He owes for all the perks and payments and bonuses and extra undeserved pay weasled from us honest Atkinson taxpayers. His old buddy, dear friend, juicy benefactor is owned a payback. What abuse did Baldwin report at the police station during those 5 years? Nadda? Why you suppose that might be he said nothing? Know nothing? Heard nothing? Does he care about the victim his now employee, his reputation, the integrity of the Town of Atkinson?
Then there are the former selectmen that have supported and directly benefitted. Knew nothing? Heard nothing? Withheld the facts of the MRI report?. Redacted the truth when it should have been reported to law enforcement? Helped remove extensive secret documents kept on private citizens of the town from the police station? Any guesses? Any names come to mind?
This scandal makes a lot of supporters look bad. They are drawn into the growing scandal. Started as a Hoover Dam. Then a pin hole leak. Then a trickle, then a gush, then a torrent. Hold onto your life preserver, supporters, as the Tsunami is coming. If your life preserver says PERVERT SUPPORTER on it, I wouldn't want to be you.
NOTICE that he DOES NOT DENY THE CONTENT, He is just pissed that it got out!
What a pig
Consentino will try to get the rest of the board to give the Osborns an OC when we aren't paying attention. He owes the Osborns and will try to pay his debt.
Watch how Kirsh and Bob Jones will recommend the OC by saying the judge said they could if Osborn put in a sprinkler system.
Nothing could be further from the truth. The Osborn's have a home six times the size they were permitted to build, and haven't complied with the DES requirements or Town requirements.
So much for the planning board, code enforcement, and the ZBA. They are all complicit in the corruption.
Monday night, all residents are required to line up in single file outside town hall and wait for your name to be called. You will be required to bring proof of your whereabouts in March. You will be subjected to interrogation and fingerprinting. Make no mistake about it, we will get to the bottom of it. We will prosecute the perps to the fullrst extent of Atkinson law, which I run now. Off with their heads. I win.
If he really knew who gave out this info, he would have increased their taxes and put a lien on their house by now. Maybe he would have dug up the street in front of their house or made them change their house number. You would be playdough now for him and Mr. Bill.
Hey Sexual Pervert Predator Consentino!
What happened to your challenge of "Truth or Consequences" game with Mr. Acciard? He accepted your offer to meet him at Police Standards to go over your records. How come you aren’t setting up a day and time to do so? Here is your chance to follow through to prove him the liar. We will support you in that goal. Please set up the time and date.
Let us help you by drafting the request:
I Phillip V. Consentino request that the NH Police Standards and Training board set up a time and date where I along with Mark Acciard can review all of my training records for all the years I was a police officer and or Chief of Police in the town of Atkinson, NH 03811. I authorize (should I not be able to attend that meeting) that Mr. Acciard has my permission to see those files and make any copies that he may request.
Respectfully,
Phillip V. Consentino
Come on Phil; let’s prove that SOB is a liar. Go get him tiger! Go CHIEF, Go Consentino, Go CHIEF CONSENTINO!

Atkinson charitable trust Eagle-Tribune Phil Consentino Sexual Harassment
I Wish The Hell They’d Leave Me Alone
by Ed Naile
In the brand new category of “You Can’t Make This Stuff Up With A High Speed Computer,” the former police thug and now select thug in Atkinson, Phil Consentino, complains:
“I wish they’d leave me the Hell alone,” Consentino said.
That is a quote by the loser of so many suits against the Town of Atkinson it is hardly worth mentioning any longer, except that Atkinson pays – NOT the Thug. What is worth mentioning is the Consentino Circle of Power that enables this abuser of female employees in the Town Hall to exist.
Chief among the enablers is what serves as the local Atkinson , NH paper, the Lawrence Eagle Tribune, which does puff piece after puff piece supporting this creep.
They let this thug complain about the very public release of an eight page sexual harassment complaint to the NH Human Rights Commission which resulted in a $100,000.00 (Not $50,000) out of court settlement the Town paid to an employee Consentino was after.
The Lawrence Eagle Tribune has a copy of that complaint with all the details and they will not even ask the basic questions one would normally associate with a real newspaper.
So be it.
Our goal is to focus on Consentino’s Circle of Power. Let’s see how many people will come out of the shrubbery and defend this select-pervert.
Here is the Mission Statement of the abuser’s 501(C)3 Charitable Trust:
ARTICLE II:
PURPOSE AND MISSION STATEMENT
To assist the elderly and those in need of the Town by financial means for items deemed necessary for their mental and physical well being and safety. The Association will work with the Senior Transport Division of the Atkinson Police Department as well as the Agencies of the Town and State in achieving its purpose.
To support the acquisition of equipment for the Police Department aimed at achieving excellence in policing and fostering public relations.
To support the activities of the Department’s Dare Program.
To sponsor (or co-sponsor) a Senior Citizen Program to help maintain their mental and physical will being which includes but not limited to:
A. Annual Flu Clinics
B. Bus Trips
C. Summer outdoor concerts
Here is the question the eight page Sexual Harassment Complaint opens up:
How is the public served by letting the then Chief and “charity” operator use funds to help out the woman he was harassing? It clearly states in the complaint that Consentino paid bills for the woman he harassed and hired her husband to do work – at charitable trust expense.
Does it say anywhere in the Mission Statement that existing and potential voters and sexual targets shall receive benefits from the NH sanctioned tax deductible vote-buying tool of Phil Consentino?
That is how it works in Atkinson.
Next article:
Who RUNS this charity anyway?
Seniors pay for those trips and flu shots, so how does he take credit?
Mr. Innes said it was a small number of people. How does he know this, did he count them? Seems to me that half of those who voted, didn't want this man back.
We know who runs the TRUST of the elderly. Their charter states:
Philip Consentino - President
140 Main Street. Atkinson. New Hampshire 03811 603-362-5627
William Anderson - Vice-President
88 Maple Avenue, Atkinson, New Hampshire 03811 603-362-5l39
Robert Neill - Treasurer
8 Robie Lane, Atkinson, New Hampshire 03811
603 362 -5568
Richard Magoon - Secretary
9 Walker Road, Atkinson, New Hampshire 03811 603-362-5705
Roger Culliford - Corresponding Secretary
10 Stonewall Terrace, Atkinson, New Hampshire 03811 603.362-5895
Please Ed, tell us what they signed for, will ya? Tell us how these people were serving their elderly and the taxpayers at taxpayer expense. Please, please, please?
If taxpayer money is used for attorney fees the taxpayer should have access to All of the court proceedings.
Unbelievable! I don't think you can make this stuff up. Anyone supporting these actions by Phil should be made accountable. If you know about this thievery and did nothing you should be behind bars also. Our poor town has been raped by some of these people and we allow it to continue so we are just as bad. I watched Harold cave to the conman the other night. Must have some juicy stuff on him. No backbone! I am amazed how "deep" this cover up go's. The few who have tried to fight this over the years have gone up alone against so many, my hats off to these brave and good souls, something our town officials don't have.
Please lets all turn the fire up all the way and get them out of here!!!!!!!!!!
It would be cool to lick a few stamps and send an anonymous flyer out advertising this blog. The web address with some current sample articles and postings. It is the only free speech publication I read. The Lawrence Eagle Tribune is suppressing the truth.
This flyer will put fear in these town bully thugs because it damages them in public and they can do nothing about it.
Also good to attach the flyer to car windows at the rear of town hall, the school next door, the library, resident yards, mailboxes, Hannaford, Market Basket, Walmart, Home Depot, Superior Court parking lots in Brentwood. You could grow your readership big time and quickly. Gimme some flyers.
Does anyone have the charity recipient list? What about the elderly list? Ed? That would tell a bigget story.
Even though they are public lists, the Town and Mr. Consentino refuse to give the lists to anyone. They will make you file a lawsuit to get them.
Flyer are are great Idea! I'm getting to the point of putting a couple sheets of plywood in my trucks bed with a message to come and see what our town has become. I would drive up and down 121 and hang flyers all day long.
I need to know if this is alright with the blogs administrator. Legal stuff and all that, something our good old boys forgot about a long time ago.
Watched the selectman meeting on TV. Saw the very pretty secretary taking notes sitting a bit too close. Then I change channels and see the guy in egypt in the glass cage in court. President Mosi? Morsi?
Can the selectmen, I hear it only takes 2 selectmen, vote to appropriate emergency funds for a portable glass cage for the pert secretary? Don't get me wrong. A glass cage for her protection. Big enough for one, not two. A pervert viewing box, some might say. But that's just DIRTY. Disgusting.
Then again a petition going around for signatures for the GLASS BOX CAPITAL RESERVE FUND is a good thing. A bunch of my neighbors would sign fast once they know need for glass in town hall Monday nights.
But here's where I get stuck. Is one glass box enough? How many glass cages are needed for town hall? There's other fine looking gals working around the town. It could get pricy as ventilation and air conditioning for the glass box ain't cheap. Maybe they can hook up the $35K town generator to protect the secretary. Lord knows, the town will never ever turn on the generator for anything else.
Elderly Affairs can help us out here. Canes and wheel chairs are a good thing but glass cages, a sure thing necessity. I bet the elderly will want to donate more money to help the town protect the women of the Town of Atkinson. Maybe a donated elderly home on Meditation Lane. All that counts is results.

I think that digging out any citizens petitions that were generated by the pervert, Consentino, might be a good way of defining Consentino's Circle of Power.
Anyone he would go to for a signature on what then becomes a public document is just as much in the public domain as the names on the real citizen petitions were. Those citizen petitions were used in targeting Consentino's opponents.
Remember when Consentino used to try and get petition signers to take their names OFF petitions through intimidation?
Well that works both ways - but real citizens only have to show who signs petitions for a sexual harasser - no intimidation is needed.
Sunlight takes care on vampires in the movies and sunlight can expose those who throw their lot in with the pervert.

Used-car dealer avoids discipline over customer complaints
Police: Consumers didn't follow through on concerns
By Shawn Regan
sregan@eagletribune.com
HAVERHILL — A used car dealer with a history of customer complaints has avoided discipline by the city’s License Commission.
The commission concluded its latest probe of complaints against Robert Kalil by deciding not to hold a discipline hearing against him.
Police Captain Alan Ratte told the commission that one of two customers who complained to the commission last month about Kalil contacted police recently to say he has resolved his dispute with Kalil. Police were unable to contact a second customer who complained about Kalil, Ratte said.
Kalil’s 495 Car & Truck dealership at 1175 Main St. was formerly known as Fenway Auto Park.
Stefan DiGregorio filed a police report last month and complained to several consumer agencies after he said Kalil threatened to have him fired from his job at a local ambulance company during their dispute. DiGregorio said the dispute happened over his attempt to use the state’s Lemon Law to return a vehicle he bought from Kalil.
The other customers, Randy and Tammy Duquette, said they bought a 2005 Dodge Ram truck from Kalil earlier this year and, at the time of the sale, were given an “IOU” for a replacement chrome rim and four new tires. The deal also included a promise that certain repairs would be made before the Duquettes took delivery of the vehicle, they said. They said Kalil replaced the original tires with other used tires, failed to replace the rim and did not make other promised repairs. They said Kalil avoided their phone calls and emails as they sought to resolve the matter.
At a meeting last month, Kalil told the commission he resolved his dispute with the Duquettes by sending them a check for $297. He told the commission he had been unable to resolve his dispute with DiGregorio because DiGregorio refused to return the vehicle to Kalil’s shop so he can repair it.
Of course DiG refused to have them repair it!! Who in their right mind would after he had to go to the state fot help.
Last week I sent an e-mail to the ethics committee asking some questions. No response as of yet. Glad I wasn't holding my breath.
Bill H.
Jeb Bush says in the news today that illegal immigrants broke our laws and invaded our country because,,,IT WAS AN ACT OF LOVE. Love, love, love.
Here in Atkinson that's what they say down at town hall to justify it all. He sexually harrased the poor victim for five disgusting years because it was love, love, love. IT WAS AN ACT OF LOVE.
Yup. Jeb Bush and the Atkinson King have something in common. A big mouth,,,no brains.
Illegal immigration is an act of love? Jeb Bush as president promotes an open door to criminals.
So that explains a lot!
There has been no unethical going on's in town for the last five years......Right! Just a little sexual abuse. We can sweep that under the carpet no problem....
I'm glad you didn't hold your breath, cause the Town doesn't have or ever had an ethics committee.
We have a Conflict of Interest committee. Try contacting them so you can catch your breath again. Don't want anything to happen to you.
Paper says lust is good. is good. No reason deny women always begging for. Take is good.
That's who I e-mailed. Sorry about not having the EXACT title. I will be more careful next time. I might be holding my breath but I know my name isn't anonymous. What's yours? :)
Cat lady and used car dealer deserve each other. Should move in together. Fight at the breakfast table as no one cares. Just a couple of town losers. Lot of those.
lots of nh losers on this site. the town went to hell led by the corrupt pd.
There is no cat lady, the local nut job likes to come on here but he has nothing interesting to say so he talks about cats and fireworks. He is probably on drugs. Ignore him.
11:34 This used car dealer is a thug and a criminal getting protection from the Conman while he disrupts that neighborhood on a weekly basis and the town does nothing. Now the biggest loser is back and it will continue.
to 11:34...since when is it ok for the thug to harass women? are you one of the enablers who looks the other way? or are you new to town and havent listened to him do this for years? did you look away at the station when the pervert was abusing the dispather? do you think she deserved it too? Your cooment revealed much about your lack of integrity and lazy self.
4/7 @11:29 & 10:48 There is a conflict of interest committee that does investigate on complaint ethics and other violations brought forward to them. There is a problem though. It hasn't enough COI members to do its function[s] when there is any signed complaint with a valid name of complaint[s] . Who is to say you ,11:29 & 10:48, or even others can't join the committee. That would be nice if you have no real fear of doing so. There can be no remedy of problems unless some body does. I can not do it because of possible conflicts I have that I'm not going to say any thing about that may reveal myself.It is better that I remain anonymous.
There's been an active committee for several years now and you can't just join, you have to be elected or appointed by the commitee, NOT the selectmen. Read the ordinance, it's in b&w.
Fireworks at 21 Meditation Lane again.
He has small dick syndrome and when he needs attention, he tries to get it from anywhere. No normal man would resort to such juvenile tactics to boost his ego.
He's unstable and won't stop unless forced or jailed. He's demonstrated over and over that he is an habitual offender and hasn't indicated any sense of remorse or social obligation or even common sense. He's not going to stop bombing your neighborhood and judging from the lack of police response, he owns them.
The last I heard was that there was only one member left on the conflict of interest committee. If some one or more persons were to ask to be on the committee I see no reason why they would be denied the position. That is unless that person applying were a plant that would do what they were told to do by those corrupt in the towns other positions. JMHO
Try getting the facts for a change. Refer to the town website for a list of people on the committee, then read the ordinance, it explains all this in black and white.
If there was only one person on it, they couldn't do jack because you need three for a quorum. If a person applied and they denied him because they thought he was a plant, then the committee would be biased like your comments.
yeah why do people waste the town peoples time and run for the COI and then cowardly resign right after. Its just a waste of time. If your a coward and cant do the job then don't bother us by running.
frustrated atkinsonian
Who resigned for cowardly reasons? No reason was given so why don't you tell us all about it or are you just lying again? By the way Mr. Coward, these are volunteers on all these committes, what do YOU do to contribute to the betterment of society?
What are the reasons for the past resignations of members selected by volunteering to the COI board? Leave out health or old age reasons in answering the question. I'm willing to bet there is at least one because of harassment.
Selected by volunteering? They are ELECTED. This is the result of dropping civics from the hs curriculum.
The town should park the elderly affairs vehicles out front and save on security and lightning. There's no need to add this frivolous enhancement to the community center.
12:06 Frusrated that a volunteer quit? Man up and join up or stop whining about it.
must be an obama supporter. you owe them your free time how dare you stop waiting on me!
wasn't fireworks on meditation it was a actual fire in woods. Facts check must not be working tonight.
Fact, there were fireworks on meditation last night.
2:56, One volunteers to be on the COI but the existing members have the right to turn down any volunteer by not selecting/electing the volunteer. All they have to say is the position[s] are filled at this time and we will keep you in mind when there is an opening.
Where do you all get your information? They get elected. If someone resigns they can request applications, they select someone. You make it sound like a high school audition.
7:20 the cic doesn't select/elect. good grief, elections are by the voters.
8:31&10:35, I baited you and those who declined to get involved in rebuttal of my statement. Now that I have your and others attention may be you and they will become active in making the town a better place to live in. Now all it takes is for people to make and give valid complaints to the coi to clean up our criminal pigs stye of a town.
If the AG and the BOS and the Sheriff, lawyers, police haven't been able to clean up the sty, what makes you think the CIC can? You're an ass. Go take your silly bait and volunteer rather than sit here and bug us.
new nick name for our little town.."THE STY" I like it! One discussing boss hog pig with 815 piglets.
Been over a week since I sent an e-mail to the COI I haven't got a response yet. A simple response would have been great but not a peep. I guess I have to wait until the next election to run for a spot on it.
They are having their first post election meeting Friday. Why don't you show up and see if you are going to be discussed. Let us know.
1:44, You probably are right in what you've said here. If the position is to be heard and acted on regarding the person applying it has to be at a formal meeting. A quorum has to be present at that time to act on the application.
April 9 @ 8:37 As you should know by now the meeting is on this Friday.For someone who says they want a spot on the COI committee you haven't done your home work to have read any of the boards rules . If it were me I'd be in opposition to having you as a member. Sorry , but that is JMHO as humble as it is.[ Get a life Conman supporter]
Funny, but 4:58, you don't present yourself as CIC material with your (anything but humble) numerous misinterpretations of the ordinance. Bias is bias whether pro or con, man.
Consentino states there would never be enough punishment to the person who publicized this case, to satisfy him. He was the aggressor here not the victim. Does he intend to victimize others now?
Just wondering if he will ask the coi to investigate his complaint of who made the leak. Yes, it would be at the towns expense!
5:23,I didn't really want to offend you on purpose but then I did hit the nail on the head with my saying to get a life conman supporter? Once again , just my humble opinion!!!
Have any of you actaully read the CIC ordinance? It's not their job to investigate who leaked the goods. They deal with accusations of conflicts of interest by town officials and employees. That's their job and contrary to public blog opinion, they don't go around snooping based on blog rumors. Think of them as the judge in court, there's an allegation, some evidence and someone takes them to court.
7:08 - you dont want to offend but you think its ok to voice an opinion thats offensive?
Clearly Sweeney is upset the story of his lust is public and he seeks revenge.
does the local reporter read this blog? why dont they print our police log? is this like timberlane officials killing freedom of speech? do a story on atkinson.
7:08 , I did say-I didn't really want to offend you - didn't I? The key word here is really . I have the right to have an opinion just as you do have and let it be known. Nothing says you have to respond to any ones opinion if you don't like whats being said or in written print. Like what appeals to the eye of the beholder is an example of what is said in this message. Apparently you should have your "eyes" examined and then please do get a thicker skin .
Nope, not really offend, just somewhat offend. The keyword is offend. You dont have the right to offend, insult, bully or be rude. Apparenty you haven't taken that english writing class we suggested either.
You people bicker over grammar is ridiculous! We have a much bigger problem then spelling. My country is at war and my town is no better. If I offend you in my beliefs and opinions TOUGH! Now go put your big boy-girl pants on and start complaining of the take over of our budget by the town TA! We need security cameras at the community center like we need AstroTurf!!!!
There once was a barber named Sweeney.
Frustrated his tool was too teenie.
His wife played along,
baked pies all day long
At last revenge of a meanie.
We have lights in the CC parking lot, why are they parking in the way back? Park under the lights!
3:31 - The discussion that was twisted into a grammatical one began with an uninformed person spewing about the COI. You called others losers that are being victimized but no you want us to care about your concerns? People voted for a pervert selectman, I say that's more important that the budget right now.
Most every thing written here can be thought of as being "offended". It depends on who is doing the reading- the one it is directed at,a reader who thinks it is offensive,or to all readers that feel it is. With out so called offensive reading there would be no if any at all opinions ,factual or not ,to read and be aware of. If you don't like reading here go else where and bury your head in the sand and not know what is going on in town. Now that is just my humble opinion!
WOW after reading this "blog" of hatred I am embarrassed to be a resident among you all. Really childish.
they have so much hate for the man that they confused themselves and attack each other --- Hey Mark, these are you peeps, you must be so proud...
JMHO
Just move on, some people just can't let things go
It amazes me that some folks think everyone has to be on one side or the other. "They attack each other" - who knows who anyone is blogging to, we don't.
In my opinion, the town is divisive and it's festered for years and one person is always n the middle of it, Consentino.
to 8:08, 8:25 - You are the same as what you criticize, your words, your anger. Why don't you try and "be the change" if you are so embarassed to be residents? Be an example, do what's right, volunteer. Are you ok with the status quo? Your words say you are not and I think the anger is misplaced.
There wouldn't be so much anger if the conman would disappear from the towns politics and all that he has & is now causing. The thing to remember is that he has caused those who are in anger their monies in taxes,law suits, selective law enforcement,and town state & national embarrassment. You have to be aware of the saying of what those in power can become and the corruption it leads to when self important people misuse the power they have. Time for the conman to go is now.
9:27 thanks for making mt point. No sides for me....but reality is a public website dedicated to trashing one person is not positive for any town. The voters voted and its over. Time to move on. I am done here.
The preditor alert alert flyer sent around town. Gets passed around, you think? What other women who read it can feel safe at Atkinson town hall now? Wish I got a flyer. I saw a neighbors at tea, four of us play cards tuesdays . She looked at me her face got so red. I cried.
It is bad how a girl was treated for years. She needed the paycheck because the husband was out of work. The police elderly charity fund took over their bills it says. the perpetrator figured he can squeeze sex out of her? Whhat kind of favors you think these cops ruining our town now will squeeze out of our pockets to pay lawyers to hid what they do. It is embarrassing to live near this in my town. Maybe a new flyer gets sent and I get one to show my mother .
To 10:27 - The voters voted, true. I voted for him and I am upset that I didn't know more before I did. Others knew and in retrospect, it could have come out, maybe not at candidates night, but at the very least he should have been taken aside and urged not to run.
The public website is not nearly as public as the newpaper, which has been carrying this story and leaving up the comments. It's no different, it's certainly bad. There has been no denial and that is also disturbing but it's not time to stick out heads in the sand, we've been duped. How do we move forward without anger and without a fair resolution to the voters who were left to make an uninformed decision?
This is a serious issue and anyone who tells you to move on, it's childish is likely part of the problem or of similar ilk. This victim should be getting all of our support now and people should be standing up for her, not sweeping it under the rug because of embarassment. She is more important than the negative publicity that Consentino imposed on her and us. How can this ever end until he gets out of politics?
I said it before and I'll say it again!!! The BOS members assuming they are individual thinkers and wanting to run a fair and above all governing process will tell the Conman to resign openly at their next meeting. If not openly then in private or they will not show up for future meetings until he does. A governing body [BoS] that has the guts to do that is one that will show they care for the town and wants to make the town reputable once again. They,too, in the next election will be a definite consideration of reelection. How they can now sit with a so called man as a member after all of what has happened in the past to now is beyond me and many others.= Conman please resign immediately rather than be furthering the embarrassment you have caused up to now to your self your family ,family name, and,the town.
In the Senate, the office of Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) gives new employees and interns a handbook that explains that sexual harassment can include “sex-oriented verbal ‘kidding,’ ‘teasing,’ jokes, or suggestive or lewd remarks” as well as “demands for sexual favors; unwanted hugging or kissing; and displaying derogatory or pornographic posters, cartoons, drawings, or male or female pinups.”
In Atkinson, it's easy just to pay the 100K judgements, using taxpayer dollars. NEXT!
The victim should have sued for 5 million. She deserves it.
The town has a Personnel Policies and Procedures manual posted on the Town site and it addresses sexual harassment. All employees and volunteers are given a copy. Bookmark it, they keep the COI ordinance link in the same place for reasons unknown.
Posting info about sexual harrashment on the town website was obviously ineffective for our police officers. How stupid.
It is better a tattoo artist come and tattoo the town policy on the flabby paunch. A big big big warning message on the head, that's a good thing. Not sure what tattoo would protect the public Hmmmmmm.
The words TOWN CENSOR for the forehead of town moderator and TOWN LIAR for the forehead of that thug town administrator who thinks he runs the town.
What tattoos will best protect the honest hardworking suffering citizens of the Town of Atkinson?
Any suggestions?
The existence of the policy led to the firing and Innes was the one who pushed for it. The fact that he's back in any way, shape or form indicates a failure on the part of the lawyers settling the case. My first inclination is to ask the victim to press charges now, altenatively to ask the other selectmen and town counsel to pressure him to resign. My next thought is that this damaging documentaion came from local or state officials, since the public had no access. His peers wanted him outed and did so. BOS, State, County, Legal, had access. They did everyone a favor, yet there are some misinformed naive residents who cannot see what's in front of them. If you hear someone defending him, know they are out of touch with reality and are blindly supporting evil.
The Atkinson CIC held it's first post election meeting. Newly elected CIC member Freda Muldoon urged the CIC to not reveal damaging evidence against Consentino and said it was just rumor. Ms. Muldoon also urged the committee to ignore allegations that the Atkinson Animal Control were instructed to mischarge time. Atkinson was allegedly answering calls in Plaistow while charging Atkinson for labor.
If true, there are charges of trying to cover up very serious legal violations. The purpose of the CIC is to prevent conflicts of interests according to the strictestest reading of the Conflict of Interest Ordinance. If a CIC committee member is recommending a violation of the Ordinance be overlooked, the other committee members must seek legal advice and take action against the violating committee member.
I want to thank the CIC for responding to my e-mail and explaining how the correct way to get a petition and submit it to them.
I do have a problem that if a member does not agree with a complaint they call it a rumor and forget about it.
Sort of like a fireman sitting in the station and sees smoke coming out of a building across the street and waiting for the alarm because that is their procedure.
Bill H.
Rumor?? Did the CIC look into this so called rumor to announce that it is a rumor? They did not. The members of the CIC should never release any information until its findings are made and not before. That protects the town and the CIC members from being sued. The subject of any complaint is an alleged violation that has to be acted on and not swept under the rug.
The CIC operates out in the open, not behind closed doors and " releasing information". They discuss allegations and investigate and in doing so doesn't risk being sued. 6:16 doesn't know the rules and procedures.
The coi can investigate without a petition, why not? You can't deem something a rumor without looking into it.
I have not filed. I am watching and waiting. Why am I waiting. I am furious at what is going on. Why should I waste my time filing if they say complaints arerumors? Why should I bother
The members cant let their personal feelings interfere with doing their job or they can be charged with violating the ordinance.
Baseless attacks on anyone will be removed.
9:21 may have the answer. if a member was not doing the job they were elected to do because they allowed their personal feelings to interfere with their official duty, they'd be violating the ordinance as well.
To 9:19 - Being furious is good! Why don't you join the committee! It's my understanding that there was a casual report of a problem and no petitiion has yet been filed. The cic has been gathering info from the town to determine if there is a problem. I'm not sure why it's being dubbed a rumor now.
sounds like a bunch of cat gossip if you ask me, bunch of locals that do not know what they are talking about. CIC is the corrupt ones!!! It will be exposed very shortly about what there members have been doing for the last few years. Funny people think they can run but they cant hid there stinky trail. Good luck!! Good LUCK!!
7:45 What can or will you tell us about what your saying " will be exposed very shortly " . Are you just blowing a smoke screen to further fuel this story or is it a "rumor" you've heard or are starting? To have this information you should share it here with all of us. How were or are you so well informed and by whom did you get this information is another question? I ask this of you because of the COI rules?
7:45 - I don't see any flyers charging CIC members with crimes. You must have an agenda to be making empty accusations. Not getting enough attention at home?
8:07 - Do you run with every stupid remark made here?
8:50 __ What is the matter? Am I striking on one of your bad teeth? To answer your question I do not "run with every stupid remark made here" . I am running with yours as it is your own stupid remark to have be made when it seems your one whose running away from the question[s] I asked. I have the right to ask questions and that is what I'm doing.
Some posters want you to get all wound up over nothing, and you do. Why take the bait? It distracts from any discussion and starts a cat fight.
Did you watch last nights Selectmen's meeting. The selectmen have to deal with a dedicated citizen who shows up at every meeting to insure transparency and clean government in Atkinson. So be sure to watch on TV as gets very juicy at times. Town Selectmen and officials obeying the State law. HA! It should have been that way anyway. RIGHT??
I am growing so tired of the new bald head junior selectman. Now as selectman boss of his victim. Time for resignation. It will save us paying the legal bills he will make happen for sure. The legal cost to taxpayers will be off the charts.
Thank God for Leon. Not afraid at all to speak the truth. More of us should be like him. It's time I practice what I preach and will try to attend meetings when he is on the agenda to offer any support I can. He should not stand alone protecting my and every residents rights to transparency and a BOS that acts in the interest of all residents instead of a few.
Bill H.
No cable, can't watch and they don't post videos or minutes in a timely fashion. Can someone do a weekly synopsis for the rest of the interested folks?
The two cop selectman think they are going to fool the public violate state laws. Ha ha, It's not going to be a cakewalk! Citizens united have a renewed committment. So look out as Only 12 committed people will clean up this town and keep it clean. We....the people...will prevail. You the deceivers and devils, are in for a rude awakening.
“All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.” Thomas Jefferson.
To end tyranny in Atkinson, people of good conscience must stand up and protest when laws are broken or the truth subverted. It's that simple. To not protest is to all what has gone on the last 30 years....to continue.
What words will they carve on your tombstone?
"ALWAYS SAT ON THE SIDELINES
NEVER GOT IN THE GAME"
""QUIT WHEN THE GOING GOT TOUGH"
"FOUGHT THE GOOD FIGHT"
"NEVER SOLD OUT TO CORRUPTION"
"HERE RESTS A COURAGEOUS HERO"
So what words will they write on your tombstone. How many years have you got left to live heroically?
I find it hard to believe that twelve good people can get rid of the scourge that has taken over our Town. Many of us have gone to the State Offices for help and if you were lucky to get a reply it was to tell you there was nothing they could do to help. The first ones to be notified of a complaint would be the offender.From there it would be swept under the rug by whom ever. I can tell you this because I have been there and done this to no avail. The corruption has been going on for so long it is imbeded in our Town. I have not given up hope for a change and that is all we have left is hope.
The old adage that"the fish rot"s from the top is so true.
Never give up!
I too have been frustrated writing many letters about Atkinson corruption to then Attorney General Kelly Ayotte and not even getting a polite acknowledgement. It seems her selfish interest in her political climbing into a comfortable Senate lounge chair super ceded her interest in corruption and the law.
So I understand your pain you reached out to government agencies and got a null response.
The fact is, the enculturation of corruption in the sleepy Town of Atkinson has already started to shift. With the resignation of a fascist town moderator the town started to change. Then it was accelerated by the combined efforts of a few people now grown to a dozen.
The town already "feels" more free and open. Yet there are more setbacks as there is a core of police supporters who vote in as selectmen the absolute lowest rung of Atkinson society. And that's being polite!
Here is how you impact your community. Pull an Obama and organize to reach voters and influence them. Very few people even bother to vote in Atkinson.
Who you are, a person of integrity, makes a difference. YOU go to your neighbors and talk up your concerns. YOU go to Deliberative Session and vote to hinder wrongs. YOU send emails to your friends in town and organize them to stand firm in protest.
It is a fact, the corruption in this town cannot withstand the fury of people of good consience. Right now you are SILENT.
ABDICATE YOUR SILENCE.
then get your property vandalized - just sayin'
And take note they will try to silence you by threats. That's what bully town officials try to do. Scare you.
The truth is they are scared. Scared the residents of the town are getting courageous and informed and will take actions against them and their circle of power. Scared they will lose their stranglehold and the ability to shift around favoritisms, special exemptions and improper allocation of your tax dollars. They count on your ignorance.
Get informed. Take action against them. Resist corruption.
Wow, you scared of getting vandalized for not speaking your mind. Then you deserve to live under these conditions.
Time to stand firm and get what all residents deserve. An open and transparent government that's is fair and tries to do what is right.
How soon we forget the hardships our fellow Americans had over history to give us these well deserved rights and we fear our cars being scratched, so we do nothing!!!
Bill Hovanasian
do nothing? speak for yourself. i don't see you joining anything. talk is cheap.
The suggestion that the BoS make the Conman resign by telling him they will not act on any town matters until he does makes sense. If they were to do that the taxpayers and the state would then make it come to be. A revolt of that kind would make the state do its job of stepping in to rid the towns problem, the Conman.
Start by signing your name, would be a good first step.
7:14 , If you mean me at 6:55 why wont you do the same? I see you didn't when you asked> If it is good enough for me or any one else it has to be good enough for you to do before asking any one else. In short -- what is good for the goose is good enough for the gander is it not?
It was not meant for you at all.
Sorry I forgot to sign.
Bill H.
You're dreaming if you think they'll ask Mr. C. to resign. Proof? Reality.
4/19 @6:55 has a great idea to get the Conman out of office. The state will want its money as do the towns venders. Stop paying the state and they will wake up and take steps to rid the town of its corruption .
uh huh. dont hold your breath.
After seeing the videos during candidates meeting night The moderator should be removed from his job. I have seen many attempts of infringement of free speech and this is definitely one of them. Hopefully the blog administrator will post these on this site.
"Don't hold your breath." Haha. That's the kind of comment you get from a disgraced thug. A failed town moderator that tries to disrupt this blog with. It is his little service to his crooked pals over at town hall. Crooked as a dogs hind leg.
I people get what they deserve. Are you satisfied with these people with no integrity governing you? You can always make there life miserable by exposing them.
Who is the five foot failed town moderator who trolls this blog ? Any guesses? Beady eyes, pimples, bad hair? Got a clue? FFF. Five...Foot...Failed.
I agree but there's no recall in NH. He did the Town a big disservice by not letting the person ask the question. This whole situation is very bad for this Town and Consentino had no business running for anything after what he did. He needs to resign, but he won't, too self absorbed.
Yup. Gerridy looked great!. I like in the video how Gerridy STOMPS on the guy for asking that question!!!!
Dachau in Germany for political prisoners. Very good to humiliate Them and stop the questions. One way or nuther. Dachau here. Do it. Do it, Jim.
Love the vid. Thanks'
There may be no recall in our state but there well could be if our representatives in our area make it come before the state for voting in or out . The state wide publicity of Atkinson and the past problems else where should push the vote to recall. There is no better way of true honest governing than the threat of recall to any one or more officials here in N.H. Where is Mr. Naile ,Mark, Leon,and any others who have the clout to push this is and would be the question? Why be bullied by the three BoS and Innes who they tell what to do.
Call your rep and ask, don't wait for others to do your bidding.
Then I'll assume you will do the same!
When I have an issue or question, I chase it down myself. Some people are spoiled by a few people who stand up for what's right rather than to get involved. If more people stepped up, it would be helpful.
Let us know what your Rep. says about your concern.
Has anyone looked to see the representatives? There are two from Town Hall. How far do you think we would get with this kind of
representation.?????
I'll wait until you contact our Rep. and you tell us what he said to you.
sure but you expect leon, mark or ed to do it. lazy. get involved or go away.
Are you going to do the same as you ask of me? Leon, Mark and Ed are those who are well known and have had to put up with abuse of many sorts. They would be the ones to do it thereby saving anyone else from being targeted for retaliation by the you know who in town. The towns elected officials can but wont do it and they should be doing it as so called leaders of its residents. There is no accountability on their part.
I didn't come here asking Mark and Leon to do anything, you did, so YOU need to do it, not me.
You're asking others to stick their necks out and do something YOU think should be done so YOU don't get targeted by you-know-who. You should be ashamed of yourself!
All this talk about retaliation is misleading. These thugs fear getting caught as it is. It is we the citizens breathing down THEIR necks getting evidence to put them behind bars. And we will be VICTORIOUS.
They lay in bed worrying what is going to happen to them as they know unlawful acts planned and committed.
We have many ways to pursue these thugs. please join us. And keep in mind when you read town officials posting here about you will be vandalized or your cat strangled, they fear YOU. The law abiding, upright, long suffering citizen.
"The only thing you have to fear, is fear itself". FDR
yet they continue. go figure.
The NH legislature just voted to raise gasoline taxes by 27%. This summer. Whats good about this gas tax is it can be easily managed by the successful but the lower class will get hammered. The good news is Atkinson is for the wealthy. Poor people dont belong here.
They had better keep a handle on the PD and EA gas cards.
Time for their own gasoline tanks with using the cards. There is your accountability solved.
Can you restate this in english?
If you are a follower of this site you would have seen a blog for the town to have installed tanks for gasoline and diesel fuels for accountability of m/v use costs.
i follow the site, never saw anything about tthe town installing tanks. point out where it allegedly is posted.
I did not see it either. Do they have gas phobs where they have to punch in an employee #, mileage, car #, time?
If you followed the site topic of gasoline purchasing out of town for accountability you would have observed and noticed the suggestion by some body anonymous. The town didn't make the suggestion before or after some people were wanting more accurate accounting of what m/vs were using the cards to get fuel.
4:51 - indicate the topic and time related to your accusation.
So 4:51 is blowing smoke. No information, no indication of when or where the allegation was made, nothing. BS and nonsense..request he be blocked from posting.
4:51 is vague and it's impossible to determine what his point is.
I think the posts to which 4:51 was referring may be found under the 3/13/14 Atkinson Selectman results will Stand topic. The comments about gas/fuel start on 3/20 or 3/21. There is a comment on 3/23 @7:22AM which specifically mentions a suggestion of have metered pumps in town.
9:37,10:11. As you now can see I'm not the bs'er. I thank 12:23 for his/her comment setting you straight. You claim to follow the site and yet you claim to have never seen the suggestion made for use of the towns m/v use of fuels accountability. Its apparent your both followers of the conman trying to stop truth . Your wanting to have me barred from the site is what should be done to you because of your lies to me and those who read and write here in opposition of the conman. Well its time to feed the animals so I have to go as they say.
If he could only make a clear point, we wouldn't need to go back a month to figure it out.
Any thing for you to avoid the truthful points I've made . Those who read the truth is all that matters so you can stop trying to make every one see it as your conman ways of trying to convince them of your lies.
Just pointing out that you are not clear and that doesn't make me a Conman supporter. You shouldn't be accusing me of being a liar either merely for pointing out that you can't make a point. Get my point?
No I don't. What school did you attend to learn to make your point? If you follow the site you should be able to get any point that is made.
Not so. The onus is on you to define your point or be misunderstood.
Yeah, if it was sealed, why is Consentino talking about it to the newspaper. He broke the agreement.
"Newly elected Selectman Phil Consentino said yesterday he has complained to the state Human Rights Commission, the Attorney General’s Office and the U.S. Postal Service about the distribution in town and disclosure of details from a human rights case and confidential settlement."
4/27@7:27 , If you could follow the site as you say you do then you'd have no problem understanding w/o any misunderstanding and any points being made. I'd say the onus is on you. When answering any thing I refer to the day and time I want to reply to. It could be the problem your having to follow things your concerned about.
I don't take orders from you. No one understands your babble due to the poor writing skills.
YOU'RE (<--- note the spelling) annoying.
More thoughtful opinions and suggestions and less nonsense.
It appears you are very selective as to who you delete from the site. Did you eliminate Len from Danville Mark A. from Derry or Naile as well? Just asking in fairness to all who want to use the site for their opinions of what is terrible to Atkinson and the state of N.H. Try remembering that other people will see this before you delete it.
Very selective. Others named by you have not been censored.
I'd rather see a deleted message that a stupid cay comment. Good job Mr. Moderator.
Bill Hovanasian
Sorry "cat"
The Committee To Protect Atkinson Selectmen (CPAS) announced in the Eagle Tribune today the commission of a statue honoring notable Atkinson selectmen is nearing completion. To be placed in front of Atkinson Town Hall, the statue will protest against the intolerance recently shown a beloved selectman. The statue, being sculpted at the Atkinson Police Station by a noted New Jersey artisan, is nearly complete, according to a spokesman for the Lions Club.
“We’re really coming along fast,” said officer Smack, who claims to have raised more than $20,000 for the project through a special Elderly Affairs fund raising scheme from the station.
The nearly complete statue of the Baphomet, or Sabbatic Goat, is a magnificent figure that has been used to represent Satan for centuries. It is made of bronze, poured over a clay mold. Images provided to The Eagle Tribune show the beloved figure on a throne, with smiling and willing and "well developed" women at each knee.
One group of critics has stepped forward with the complaint, “We don’t think CPAS should place ANY religious sexual artifact on Atkinson Town Property. Especially as the Prince of Darkness deserves a more noble comparison.”
