Israel
Rivera, 40, is a member of the Holyoke (Mass) City Council. Back in
December he was stopped by the state police after blowing thru a red
light. He seemed to be quite drunk. At least one of the statements he
made, recorded on body cam, seemed to indicate he knew he was drunk. He
then went into the usual 'Do You Know Who I Am" bullshit.
He
has been removed from the Public Safety Committee of the city council.
The council is not going to take any action against him until his case
is adjudicated. The charges against him are so far only misdemeanors
and a misdemeanor conviction would not automatically remove him from
office.
