The Worcester Telegram, the daily paper that covers my former hometown of Sterling, Mass., reports that a teen charged with vehicular homicide and manslaughter threatened to kill Albert Hayeck, a Worcester attorney, by cutting him up and mailing his body parts to his family.
The teen was under house arrest and wearing electronic monitoring equipment, but claimed that his aunt worked in the department that controlled the equipment and was shutting it off at night. Scary.
Hayeck is a spokesman for the family of a young man who was killed in the automobile accident. When I was a legal aid attorney in Worcester, I actually had a caseĀ against himĀ in which he represented the landlord. My memory is that it resolved without much difficulty and that he was a nice guy.
The judge revoked the teen’s bail and he is now in jail waiting for his case to go to trial. As for Mr. Hayeck, I hope he remains safe.
