David Posted 22 March 2018:

22 months following the indictment of Boston tourism director Kenneth Brissette on extortion charges stemming from alleged coercion of the Boston Calling music festival management into hiring unneeded union labor, a US District Court judge has canceled the scheduled trial.

The cancellation follows filing of a motion by the defense to dismiss, and a motion by the prosecution not to go further with the case. Prosecutors believe that instructions the judge had planned to give to jurors - that to be found guilty the defendants must have personally benefited from the alleged extortion - are incorrect in light of precedent, and in any case unprovable.

Brissette has been on paid leave since May 2016. Who in the Walsh administration has been promoting tourism for the City of Boston in the meantime, and what have they accomplished?
