The very same team who received praise for exposing sexual abuse in the Catholic Church are behind this article regarding the Catholic Medical Center in New Hampshire and cover-ups of medical malpractice.

Under the article’s comments section, I posted a note which included the names of former CMC board member Edward Arsenault, New Hampshire’s Supreme Court Chief Justice, and former legal counsel to the Diocese of Manchester during the Catholic Priest Sex Abuse Scandal — Gordon Macdonald; US Attorney Jane Young who shook Edward Arsenault’s hand after he took a plea deal in 2014 for, among other things, defrauding a Catholic Hospital (CMC I believe); Chuck Douglas Esq (Chair of NH Judicial Selection Committee) who filed dozens of lawsuits against the Diocese of Manchester and who worked closely with Edward Arsenault; David Vicinanzo who was Gordon MacDonald’s partner at Nixon Peabody representing the Diocese of Manchester.
The Boston Globe was quick to block my comment. Why? Who is paying the Boston Globe to block an expose of public corruption at the highest levels in New Hampshire with players who are intertwined with the corruption at the Catholic Medical Center, which hid medical malpractice?
The article in the Globe mentions Alex Walker as Chair of the Catholic Medical Center, but it doesn’t mention that Alex Walker was legal counsel for the CMC before he became chair. He is listed as the agent on “Alliance Enterprises Inc,” alternatively known as “Catholic Medical Enterprises Inc,” founded in 1984 with a Derek MacDonald on its board of directors. Is he related to Gordon MacDonald per chance? “Alliance Enterprises” is a for-profit company.
Edward Arsenault was on the board of both the Catholic Risk Retention Management Insurance company and the Catholic Medical Center, where, per his resume, he was in charge of increasing profits for the Center. Gordon MacDonald represented Purdue Pharma and managed to prevent an external audit right before he became the Attorney General of New Hampshire. He then decided not to join 44 other Attorneys General around the country in a landmark drug price-fixing lawsuit that includes over 20 companies and 112 generic drugs.
Around New England, you will see bill boards saying “Public Corruption Kills”. Yet, the Boston Globe Spotlight Team will not expose the corruption at the top which is not “Protecting God’s Children” as Edward Arsenault’s Virtus LLC (founded in 1999) claims. Catholic Risk Retention Management Insurance is the parent company of Virtus LLC. The current New Hampshire Supreme Court Chief Justice, US Attorney for New Hampshire and Alex Walker should be required to explain their roles in this racket.
The Boston Globe’s Spotlight Team is complicit in protecting the enablers of those killing our children for profit.
