Former Johnston detective wins settlement in First Amendment lawsuit


In a story about the firing of Johnston Officer Adam Catamero, Brady was quoted in his role as president of Local 307 of the International Brotherhood of Police Officers. Brady suggested that departmental politics might have played a role in Catamero s firing. The department claimed Catamero was fired because he told two supervisors, When I put this uniform on, I feel like I want to kill someone.”
In the interview, Brady told The Journal that Catamero “worked by the book.” Brady said Catamero would issue traffic tickets to anyone, including “individuals who were related to or friendly with members of the administration of the JPD.” Catamero also ignored an “unwritten rule” that officers should write more tickets that could be processed through the Johnston Municipal Court than through the Rhode Island Traffic Tribunal, according to Brady. ....

Former Johnston police chief violated detective's free-speech rights


PROVIDENCE  A federal judge has ruled that Johnston’s former police chief violated the First Amendment rights of the department’s union president in 2017 when he disciplined him for speaking to a Providence Journal reporter for a story.
In her ruling in the case filed by lawyers for the American Civil Liberties Union of Rhode Island, U.S. District Judge Mary McElroy on Tuesday found that then-Johnston Police Chief Richard Tamburini’s actions amounted to “an unconstitutional effort to stifle protected speech” of then-Detective James Brady.
In September 2016, Brady, an 18-year veteran of the force, spoke to Providence Journal reporter Jacqueline Tempera about police officer Adam Catamero, who had been terminated from the department. Brady indicated he was speaking in his role as union president of Local 307 of the International Brotherhood of Police Officers.  ....
