There won’t be a preliminary election or primary because the slates for Mayor, City Council and School Committee contain only two or fewer candidates per seat. “The fi eld is not overly crowded,” City Clerk Sergio Cornelio feels. “A crowded fi eld would mean there’d be at least one primary.” The only wrinkle is whether Everett High School Music Department Head and longtime Marching Band Director Eugene O’Brien, second, left, receives the 2024-25 U.S. Army Award of Excellence at Everett Memorial Stadium during graduation in June.

Jose Vasquez, a/k/a “Cholo,” a/k/a “Little Crazy,” 31, was sentenced by Senior U.S. Dis50 trict Court Judge William G. Young to 25 years in prison, to be followed by five years of supervised release. In May 2025, Vasquez pleaded guilty to violent crime in aid of racketeering. Vasquez was already serving a 212-month prison sentence for a May 2018 federal conviction for conspiracy to participate in a racketeering enterprise. In total, Vasquez will serve a total of 37 years for his MS-13-related crimes. William Pineda Portillo, a/k/a Lawrence A.

He is subject to deportation upon completion of the imposed sentence. In May 2023, Pineda Portillo pleaded guilty to conspiracy to participate in a racketeering enterprise (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act [RICO]) conspiracy. Pineda Portillo and Vasquez were indicted by a federal grand jury along with other MS-13 members in September 2024. Specifically, Pineda Portillo and Vasquez conspired with others to murder a 28-year-old man on Dec. 18, 2010, in Chelsea, Mass. That evening, law enforcement responded to a 911 call in the vicinity of the Fifth Street on-ramp to Route 1 in Chelsea. There, the victim was found with approximately 10 stab wounds to his chest and back and injuries to his head. The victim was transported to the hospital, where he succumbed to his wounds. A recent reexamination of evidence collected during the initial investigation identified members of MS-13, including Vasquez, as having committed the murder. In the week leading up to the incident, Vasquez and other MS-13 members conspired to murder the victim because they believed the victim belonged to a rival gang. Evidence revealed that on the day of the murder Pineda Portillo picked up Vasquez, other MS-13 members and the victim in Allston. Driving a vehicle registered to his father, Pineda Portillo took the MS-13 members and the victim to Chelsea, where Vasquez and the other gang members led the victim to an area under an on-ramp to Route 1. Once in the secluded area under the highway, an MS-13 member hit the victim in the head with a rock, and another MS-13 member stabbed the victim with a machete. During the attack, Vasquez stabbed the victim with a knife. Vasquez’s palm print was identified on the handle of a silver kitchen knife recovered from the murder scene. The victim’s blood also was found on the knife. An undercover recording obtained approximately six weeks after the murder captured one MS-13 member acknowledging his participation in the murder and other gang members disciplining him for leaving Massachusetts after the murder without the gang’s permission. Pineda Portillo fled to El Salvador before investigators could interview him about his role in the murder. On or about April 29, 2015, after Pineda Portillo returned to the United States, he arranged to sell a firearm loaded with eight rounds of ammunition to a cooperating witness in exchange for money. On or about June 1, 2015, Pineda Portillo conspired to murder an MS-13 member he incorrectly believed had been arrested and was cooperating with law enforcement. Specifically, in a conversation recorded by law enforcement, Pineda Portillo said, among other things, “I want that son of a bitch killed, man. . . . You will see, homeboy! We are going to do a complete thing to that son of a bitch, dude.” Pineda Portillo originally was indicted in 2017. Shortly before the indictment was returned, he was deported to El Salvador. Approximately five years later, on May 10, 2022, Pineda Portillo was arrested as he tried to return to the United States, illegally crossing the border into Texas from Mexico. According to court documents, after being arrested at the border, Pineda Portillo admitted that he was a member of MS-13. A fingerprint analysis indicated that there was a warrant for his arrest. Pineda Portillo was then returned to the District of Massachusetts, where he remained in custody. The case announcement was made by the following: SENTENCED | SEE PAGE 7 ׉ 7cassandra://TJNuYGHAwrD-LfBMWComwN0l9z9FZpz2TMWtYNgX5JI8`hMix/DE׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, July 25, 2025 Page 5 DON’T GET SMISHED!

S ta t e officials warn Massachusetts residents that the Mass. Department of Transportation (MassDOT) and Registry of Motor Vehicles will NEVER text or email looking for payment of an outstanding bill with a text message. “A lifetime of commitment to the great City of Everett” Don’t get “smished” by a fraudulent text message asking for a money transfer or any other solicitation of private and/or personal information. (Courtesy graphic) By Steve Freker D on’t get “smished”! Cybercriminals are relentless and the public is being urged to be aware of a new scam unfolding on your personal cellphone. Mass. Registry of Motor Vehicles chief Colleen Oglivie on Tuesday warned Massachusetts residents about a new, massive scam involving fraudulent text messages sent to cellphones requesting payments and personal financial information. A text message purporting to be from the state Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is being used to scam residents, officials said. This is a scam, according to Oglivie, who serves as Mass. Registrar of Motor Vehicles. “Be vigilant if you receive this kind of text message and never click on any links included,” Oglivie warned. “The RMV or DOT will never text anyone seeking any type of payment.” Mass. state officials also warned residents to never share or provide personal financial information, such as credit card or bank account numbers or PINs. The latest version of the phoHere is a copy of the fraudulent message appearing in people’s text messages across the state. ny text messages appears to be a “final notice” from MassDOT that tells people they have an outstanding traffic ticket and threatens to suspend their registration and driving privileges if they don’t submit payment by a certain date. The fake messages are what’s known as “smishing,” a scam in which cybercriminals use texts in an attempt to trick people into providing personal information or sending money to them. A previous, widespread “smishing” scam used texts claiming to be from “E-ZPass Toll Services,” instructing drivers to pay outstanding toll balances. Here are some tips and advice for residents seeking to avoid becoming a victim of the ongoing scams. How to Protect Yourself • Be wary of unsolicited messages: Don’t click on links or call numbers from unknown senders. • Verify the sender: If you’re unsure about a message, contact the company or service directly through their official website or phone number. • Don’t share sensitive information via text: Banks and othTHANK YOU to the 486 Voters who signed my nomination papers!

Starting out at the Parlin for one year, O’Brien quickly moved on to the high school, and has been there ever since. He will be beginning his 30th year on the Elm Street campus in September, and has already been inducted into the Massachusetts Music Educators Drum Corps and the American Buglers Hall of Fames. But during the EHS graduation ceremony in June, O’Brien was honored for his love of the military by the U.S. Army. “I was very surprised by the honor, but have always been a big advocate for all of our Armed Services and the men and women who serve in them to protect our freedoms. I have a great deal of respect for all of them, because of what they do is extremely important to all of us.” O’Brien said. “My wife, Carol, in particular, was the fi rst female to break the all-male barrier to serve in the United States Marine Drum & Bugle Corps in Washington, D.C.” If We Happen To Meet By Accident ...

Go With the BEST It Doesn’t Get BETTER! RENTAL CARS Available O’Brien’s appreciation for the military goes back to his high school days in Waltham, when he joined the Marine ROTC in 1981. He stayed in it for four years, completing the stint after his sophomore year in college. While on duty, and taking advantage of his musical abilities, he was the designated company bugler. O’Brien’s love for music started early on in his life as a fi rst grader in Waltham. He fi rst took up the drums, and then the violin in the fourth grade. He then learned the trumpet the following year, and remembered going to Everett Memorial Stadium to watch the CYO competitions. Little did he realize at the time that the city was going to be a major part of his life as an adult. “The only thing that I can remember about Everett Stadium in those days was all the dust and dirt from the infi eld that made up the baseball diamond,” O’Brien said. “I didn’t know at the time that I’d actually have a career in Everett many years later. But the passion for what I’m doing now started right here, while attending those competitions.” O’Brien says that he’s capable of playing 14 diff erent instruments to varying degrees, something that was considered to be a prerequisite if somebody wanted to become a music teacher back then. O’Brien was a member of or an instructor of the Waltham High School and UMass Minuteman Marching Bands, Greater Boston Alliance Drum & Bugle Corps, Rhode Island Matadors Drum & Bugle Corps, Fitchburg Kingsmen Drum Corps, Connecticut Hurricanes, Syracuse Brigadiers, New York Rochester Crusaders, Fusion Core New Jersey, Long Island Sunrisers, Sandwich Marching Band, Leominster Marching Band, Norwood High Marching Band, Biddeford Maine Marching Band, North Stokes Marching Band of North Carolina, Phoenix Drum & Bugle Corps out of Waltham, Boston Crusaders and Nashua Spartans. In 1983, his senior year at Waltham High, O’Brien was a proud participant of the Waltham Marching and Jazz Concert Orchestra Choir after it survived Prop 2 ½. “The Show Choir was a new concept back then, and we had a young vibrant teacher to make it work,” he said. O’Brien went to UMass Amherst, where he majored in engineering with a minor in music. He also belonged to its 259-member Minuteman Marching Band. In Everett, O’Brien has been the music director and teacher of the high school’s marching band for 20 years, while being an assistant for 10 years, when Charlie Poole and Eric Holmes were in charge on separate occasions. He became the director once again after Poole stepped down in 2018. He has also been the school’s department head in music (Marching Arts) throughout the past 29 years, and has taught piano lab, rock band and concert band courses, but with a staff of 18 up from the original seven he can now solely oversee the department to go along with his responsibilities as the school band mentor. O’Brien is looking forward to directing 75 outstanding and dedicated band members this coming school year after they utilized the summer months practicing in the band room, with the 202526 student band leaders Ashley Pineda Ramos and Allison Alarcon Acosta leading the way. Coming up next month, there will be a two-week, eight-hour per day camp to get more youngsters interested in becoming future band members. The EHS Marching Band is going to be busy pretty much every day during the school year. They will be practicing Mondays and Wednesdays in the fall from 3:30-7:30 p.m. in the Rivergreen Park Parking Lot, plus on Saturdays for eight hours followed by competitions or diff erent events like the St. Cosmos Festival in Cambridge, presided over by State Senator Sal DiDomenico, a former band dad. They are also scheduled to perform at eight Crimson Tide football games, seven competitions, four parades – including the Plymouth Veterans Day Parade – and the Everett Christmas Tree Lighting Show.

Healey to support keeping food waste out of trash City offi cials from Everett, Malden, Revere & Saugus join group from 13 other communities calling for increased, consistent composting The following is from info provided by the Clean Water Fund (www.cleanwater.org). W hile residents across the Commonwealth have just experienced a record-breaking heatwave in some areas, municipal offi cials are acting on a less-often-discussed contributor to the climate crisis: food waste. Fifty-one municipal offi cials from 17 cities and towns across Massachusetts made that connection and urged the state to take action in a letter delivered this week to Governor Maura Healey and Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Commissioner Bonnie Heiple. Included were a number of local city and town offi cials, including Everett City Council President Stephanie Martins, Malden Councillor-at-Large Carey McDonald, Revere City Council President Marc Silvestri and Revere Councillors Juan Pablo Jaramillo (at-Large), Ira Novoselsky (Ward 2), Michelle Kelley (at-Large), Robert Haas III (at-Large) and Angela Guarino-Sawaya (Ward 5) and Saugus Board of Selectmen Chair Debra Panetta. While landfi ll space in Massachusetts is rapidly fi lling up, food waste decomposing in landfi lls produces methane, a potent greenhouse gas. And according to EPA data, landfi lls are one of the largest sources of methane emissions in the Bay State. MassDEP estimates that food waste accounts for more than 25 percent of the waste stream after recycling, or over one million tons per year. “We ask the State to put in A rare opportunity for first-time homebuyers to own an affordable condo in Malden! o own an affordable Affordable Homes for Sale in Malden! omes alden!!n!ldeenalden omes alden! ome Scan QR to apply APPLY ONLINE OR IN PERSON How to apply www.tndinc.org 4 Gerrish Ave Rear, Chelsea, MA 02150 Applications also available by mail or email.

The 51 signers represent the following 17 communities: Everett, Malden, Revere, Saugus, Agawam, Greenfi eld, New Bedford, Worcester, Boston, Lawrence, Newton, Somerville, Chelsea, Lynn, Northampton, Taunton and Waltham. “Municipalities across the state are leading by building waste diversion programs that address the climate crisis effects of landfi lling food waste. We need the resources to build out these programs into comprehensive municipal services that make it easier and aff ordable for working class communities and their residents to partake in reducing methane emissions and meeting out the Commonwealth’s emissions goals,” said Revere Councillor-at-Large Juan Pablo Ja272 Cross Street LLC and Winn Management do not discriminate because of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, handicap, disability, national origin, genetic information, ancestry, children, familial status, marital status or public assistance recipiency in the sale or transfer of apartment units, buildings, and related facilities, including land that they own or control.

In 2024, Clean Water Action and MASSPIRG launched a campaign called Plate to Planet with a goal of reducing food waste and diverting all organics from disposal. To reach the goals in its 2030 Solid Waste Master Plan, the state must more than double its rate of food diversion from landfills and incinerators. Since the organization’s founding during the campaign to pass the landmark Clean Water Act in 1972, Clean Water Action has worked to win strong health and environmental protections by bringing issue expertise, solution-oriented thinking, and people power to the table. Following is the text of the letter sent to Governor Healey: The Honorable Maura Healey Massachusetts State House 24 Beacon Street Boston, MA 02133 Dear Governor Healey, We, the undersigned officials from various municipalities across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, write to you today with a pressing concern and an urgent call to action.

With the Commonwealth of Massachusetts support, we could expand our composting eff orts. We ask the State to put in place concrete plans, funding and technical assistance to increase composting infrastructure, working in partnership with communities like ours to divert food waste and minimize the climate impact of discarded food. An expansion of sustainable waste management practices will benefi t our residents and our economy. Communities like ours are ready to partner with the state to expand composting in MA. • Now is the time for Massachusetts to accelerate progress, as we must more than double our rate of organic waste diversion to meet the state’s 2030 solid waste master plan goals. As you well know, the state’s landfills are filling up. In 2022, Massachusetts collectively exported 2,590,000 tons of waste, an increase of 20,000 tons from 2021 to 2022. Exported waste is costly, often being sent to other states as far away as Alabama. Massachusetts exports wood, brick, asphalt and other debris, much of which is banned from our landfills. That waste accounted for almost a third of what’s buried in Maine’s state landfi ll. Every year, Bay Staters throw away 6 million tons of garbage. Nearly 25% of that garbage is food. Some of this food is likely to be edible while other food waste is better handled via composting. Meanwhile, a recent U.S. Census survey found that 21.9 percent of Massachusetts households with children do not have access to suffi cient or quality food, despite the abundance produced. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, and while landfills such as Chicopee, Crapo Hill, Fitchburg-Westminster, Granby, Plainville, Quarry Hills, Southbridge, and Taunton collect landfi ll gas and use it as an energy source, according to EPA data, landfills are one of the largest sources of methane emissions in our state. The environmental and health implications of methane emissions are well-documented, contributing to cliExperts say that discarded food waste accounts for up to 25% of the total waste stream in Massachusetts landfi lls (shown above). Local municipal offi cials are calling on Gov. Maura Healey to support responses to address the situation. (Courtesy Photo) mate change which disproportionately aff ects our most vulnerable communities. These impacts align closely with our shared commitment to environmental justice, ensuring that all Massachusetts residents have the right to a clean and healthy environment. We urge you to take executive action to spur the diversion of organic waste from landfi lls. By implementing and supporting policies that encourage composting and other organic waste processing methods, we can signifi cantly reduce methane emissions and slow the rate at which landfi lls are fi lling. The benefits of such actions extend far beyond environmental protection. Food diversion and composting programs should be considered an environmental justice priority to reduce pollution in vulnerable and over-burdened communities. Diverting organic waste from landfi lls can also unlock numerous benefi cial products, such as compost, which enriches our soil and supports local agriculture.
