Stephanie Barry and allegedly, according to Stephanie Barry - the Chicopee, MA police department err in stating that George Vazquez, Candidate for State Representative in the 10th Hampden District in 2004, 2006, and 2008, slapped a short order cook. Nothing could be further from the truth. But what else can one expect of The Chicopee Police Department, and Stephanie Barry? Neither are the sharpest tools in the shed. Stephanie Barry can't write for a reporter, needless to mention the rag that employs her, The Republican Newspaper. A newspaper with no editorial value soon to go under themselves. As to the Chicopee police department, well, that's a PD full of bigots, Racist officers,(not all of them however) quick to arrest Vazquez the Puerto Rican. As a side note, the judge, Mary Hurley, was Mayor of the city of Springfield, MA. Vazquez' opponent's mother, the later Barbara Rivera, help her immensely in her political career in Springfield, where Vazquez ran against Barbara Rivera's daughter Cheryl Coakley Rivera. Judge Mary Hurley deliberately erred in her instructions to the jury and prejudiced Vazquez in front of the jury. She tainted the jury and inappropriately swayed it by adding a charge in her instructions after the trial. Barry fails miserably to give the readership a balance account of the incidents that has plagued George Vazquez Candidate for State Representative - 10th Hampden District, Massachusetts.
