Boston issues subpoenas over unauthorized wiretap access to Wynn Resorts

The city of Boston, in connection to its suit against Massachusetts Gambling Commission (MGC), has issued over a dozen of subpoenas for state police officers and members of attorney general’s office who allegedly provided an unauthorized wiretap access to Wynn investigators.

The subpoenas stated that members of the Massachusetts State Police and Attorney General’s Office provided two retired state troopers Joseph Flaherty and Stephen Matthews, who were working as private investigators for Wynn, access to files of an ongoing criminal investigation of Charles Lightbody.

Lightbody is a felon who secretly has ownership interest in the former Monsanto Chemical site—the venue where Steve Wynn plans to build his $1.75 billion resort casino.

Flaherty and Matthews also reportedly gained access to the prison tapes that contain Lightbody bragging his Everett land ownership to his inmate Darin Bufalino.
