Barakat for District Attorney of Norfolk County
@teamBarakatMA
Jim J. Barakat is running for District Attorney of Norfolk County, Massachusetts in 2026.
What do our #NorfolkCounty constituents think? With crumbling infrastructure and schools losing rankings, I think it is an understatement to call the #HankBrennan compensation a misappropriation, a waste, and most of all, corrupt. #Morrissey #KarenRead wcvb.com/article/hank-b…
I gotta say—2026’s heating up faster than my bacon on a griddle. DA’s got challengers lining up like lunch orders at noon. Hope he’s ready, ‘cause this race might get extra crispy. 🥓🥬🍅
Catch Jim tomorrow (Monday) at 7:00pm on @NBC10Boston giving his first interview since announcing his candidacy, for the acclaimed series #CantonConfidential - discussing #KarenRead #SandraBirchmore #NCDAO and #CORRUPTION - many thanks to the people at NBC for making this happen!
"The Norfolk District Attorney’s office has had access to the iCloud account, which is a cloud storage system, through the U.S. Attorney’s office under the condition that the contents would be destroyed 30 days after the #KarenRead murder trial ended, which it did on June 18..."
Defense attorneys are up in arms over the possible destruction of disgraced former Massachusetts State Police trooper's iCloud account, which they say could contain important evidence that could clear their clients. trib.al/DaXmOVX
Dirty cops ruin it for good cops and prosecutors.
“That pain was indescribable. What hurt me more... was the fact that nobody cared” 55,000 pregnant people are admitted to jail yearly – but almost no data exists on how they're treated Now, researchers are using anecdotes to reveal the horrific truth🧵 prisonpolicy.org/blog/2025/07/0…
In total, @DedhamPD racked up $92,937.77 in overtime pay for 1,253 hours worked by law enforcement, the records show. At least four officers were paid an overtime rate of at least $95 an hour, while no officer earned a rate of less than $46.29 for the extra security surrounding…

Christina Miller, professor at Suffolk University Law School and co-chair of the BBA's Amicus Committee, offered expert analysis in the Boston Globe on the controversial verdict in the recently concluded murder trial of #KarenRead —with the prosecutorial decision to bring that…
What dirt do ya'll think they have on Mike Morrissey? #NCDAO #NorfolkCounty
Norfolk County District Attorney Michael Morrissey has yet to issue a public statement condemning the threats made against jurors in the Karen Read trial. Several jurors, including those who courageously chose to reveal their identities, have been subjected to a wave of racist…
Prosecutors, like public defense attorneys in MA, are embarrassingly underpaid. When the final numbers show that Morrissey has spent more than one third of the #NCDAO surplus operational expenses on the #karenread trial alone, it's a slap in the face to the hard working Assistant…

Micheal "sweep it under the rug" Morrissey. That's a lot of dough. OCPF has the exact numbers you can look up, but word of mouth and an anti campaign goes a long way. Just take @DoctorTurtleboy and #FreeKarenRead for example. Power in the numbers and the FACTS! Not the $$, at…
Hey @NBC10Boston, quote your boy next time! #Barakat4DA nbcboston.com/news/local/ina…

Where’s the Audit? 72% of voters and every city and town in Massachusetts voted for the Audit. Mike Urban @agenturban asked me about what the voters can do… the answer is to hold your State Reps and Senators accountable at the ballot box. Do you agree? #mapoli
The end is near for the #Morrissey Mafia! Maybe it'll be Jim, maybe not. Either way, the #NorfolkDA has had major ethics issues since before AND after the #KarenRead trial. The first opposed election is years is just the beginning for the fall of the Morrissey regime and much…
This!
Millions of Dollars Wasted: We need to see the receipts from disgraced DA Michael Morrissey's office and audit every penny he wasted on the Karen Read case.
Change is coming to Norfolk County! #Vote4Barakat
BREAKING: Here is first post-verdict poll from Norfolk County last night, from polling firm of ex-Gov. Charlie Baker. Check out whole poll but here's 1 big takeaway: Only 4 percent of county electorate -- 4%! -- says Meatball Morrissey deserves reelection next year. Who are…
Somebody in Norfolk County is checking the temperature in the room. Survey sent out 20 min ago with about 15-20 questions on it. This is one of the last ones (all have to do with KR case)
