Let me say right up front I am a friend of John Fresolo for 20 plus years.  If you do not like him or his politics, I respect your opinion and John is a grown man who can defend himself.      Last week his daughter made a huge mistake, was arrested, will get a fair trial and the punishment that she deserves.

For a second, a minute or maybe for the duration of her trial can we give the Fresolos a break?  After watching the coverage whether I was a friend of John Fresolo or not, it convinced me to never run for office.   Seriously Worcester Telegram do you really think it was newsworthy to place a picture of his scared to death daughter in the newspaper along with a picture of her father in the courtroom.  Why???

Isn’t there  a line between public and personal life anymore?  There comes a time to leave a family alone.   Personally I think the time is now…
