What are this attorney's areas of practice? Perhaps the family anticipates JD will need an attorney with substantial criminal defense experience. Wish I had more time to check out this attorneys credentials hut I need to get dressed for work. I know someone will have checked him out by the time I get home later

From the article:

Bourget has practiced law in Augusta for 24 years. He handles family, estate and criminal cases, he said.

Apparently they have a jewel of an attorney according to this news article about Steven J. Bourget,

Ayla was at the home when Elisha DiPietro went to bed, and she was not there in the morning, he said.

Bourget confirmed that Phoebe DiPietro was not in the home that night, but didn't specify where.

"She was with a friend," he said. "She was out for the evening and out for the night. She had other plans."

Bourget said both of his clients are fully cooperative with the investigation. He said he doesn't know if his clients have taken polygraph exams.


BBM: So according to the PD's attorney, she had "other plans" ... :waitasec: Hmmm ... I wonder WHAT those plans were and IF she has an "iron-clad alibi" ? Still ... I find it HINKY that PD changed her story that there was "no party" -- but then later says she wasn't there ...

JMO but I am NOT buying that PD and ED's attorney does not know if they took polys :

Either the attorney did NOT ASK PD and ED IF they took a poly -- OR -- PD and ED did NOT OFFER the info about the poly because they FAILED IT ...:waitasec:

JMO and MOO ...

In my mind, this is just as stinky as the insurance policy...JMO JMO

I hope she does! They placed Ayla in the care of this person at this home and it didn't take long for something to happen to her.
It's my opinion Ayla should have been left in the home with her grandmother and sister, the home she knew and where she would be looked after.
If, and I say a big if, it's as I read elsewhere (don't ask because I can't remember) that Phoebe's family member is one of the case managers that was in on placing Ayla with Justin, she needs fired, too.

More of the normal...

Really?
How does he know they're telling the truth?
BS.... JMO. Of course he knows but the answer is not one that he wants people to know. Or else he told them, "If you didn't take the polygraph or if you failed, DON'T tell me" so I can say I don't know.

Justin claimed he didn't know if anybody took the polygraph either.
What is the huge secret about it?

What do you make of the fact that this lawyer says he's representing the grandmother and the aunt but not the father?

Exactly what I was coming here to post. He'd be a lame attorney if he didn't come out saying that Elisha Dipietro was being honest. It's his job and what they're paying him for. Doesn't mean I believe him. As for not knowing if his clients took a polygraph, once again I call BS!
Oh:doh: I get it........they hired him because he's like them? He can't tell the truth either? LAME!

So they don't drink at the house but what about pills or other drugs? What about drinking elsewhere?

That is very disturbing about the Chucky Cheese because it opens a whole new ball pit of possibilities.

The termination of the child support I don't find hinky; it's natural IMO not to want to pay child support if you're the one with the physical custody of the child.

He couldn't collect from a life insurance if they don't have a death certificate, could he? Do they pay if you have the child declared dead but don't have a cause or manner of death?

If I was a betting gal, and I am, I'm betting that's all BS, too. I'll even go so far as to say I'm betting JD has a cooler with something cold to drink in it, too. I'm not talking lemonade either.

wonder if they're mistaken about it being a life insurance policy and it in fact was health insurance. that would make sense to get for a child that young.

I have little faith that Justin D. would put out any money towards health care for Ayla. It wouldn't benefit him like life insurance money on her would.

In normal circumstances, purchasing a life insurance policy for one's child doesn't seem too out of the ordinary. Funerals are expensive and who wants to think about where that money is going to come from when you're grieving?

Many employers offer life insurance for minor children at a very low cost, at a coverage amount usually up to $10K.

If Justin were employed, I'd say it wasn't that hinky, considering the end of November/early December is when many employers have Open Enrollment when people can choose benefits for the next year. But he wasn't employed.

Inappropriate messages land lawyer in hot water
Stephen J. Bourget censured

snippets from : http://www.kjonline.com/news/inappropriate-messages-land-lawyerin-hot-water_2010-08-19.html

The document says, "In retrospect, Attorney Bourget agrees and admits that his sexually explicit communications to (the woman) were indecent, degrading, vulgar and demeaning." It says Bourget acknowledged that his communications with the woman violated bar rules governing "conduct unworthy of an attorney" and "conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice."

Bourget was admitted to the Bar in 1988, and the panel said this was the first disciplinary action that was taken against him.

I'm not really buying his story about the child support. He says he only called to see where he should be sending his payments. I don't buy that. Why would where he is making his payments change? I suspect they were going through Child Support Enforcement, and even if they weren't, he would just continue to pay them wherever he was paying them before. The thing I don't understand is why lie about that? It is perfectly understandable that he would not want to have to pay the money to Trista while Ayla was in his care. It is understandable that he would want to keep that money to support Ayla while she was living with him. Why lie?

As far as the life insurance. I don't know what he was thinking. I do find it strange that an unemployed man living in his mom's basement would buy unnecessary life insurance for a toddler. I would understand if he was working and he added Ayla through his work insurance. Sometimes through your employer you can add your children for very little $ and it is a small payout. But I have a hard time understanding why an unemployed person would purchase a policy on a toddler. It's strange. :waitasec:

 

[cluciano63]

All of the latest bits of "news" do absolutely nothing toward finding Ayla...just a lot of distractions, IMO.

I have a hard time listening to anyone not in LE on this case...hope they have more to say soon.

My thoughts are with Trista.

As a result of the complaint, Bourget acknowledged “personal behavioral problems” and obtained services from the Maine Assistance Program for Lawyers and Judges.

The program is administered by the state Office of Substance Abuse and offers aid for a number of problems, including depression, stress, substance abuse, and family and financial problems, according to its website.

Curiouser and curiouser. Interesting attorney selection. I find it odd that the man practices in criminal law, has been practicing in the area for 23 some years in a family firm that has been there even longer and yet the only thing I can really find about him on the web are stories of the unfortunate "behavioral" issues with his ex-GF?

Has anyone heard whether JD has named a specific attorney looking out for his interests? Or is JD still incommunicado?

Have we heard from Elisha at all via the media yet? Are we hearing her statements for the first time via a lawyer?

What time is "regular bedtime" for the adults?
There was no party, yes we heard that already.
There was no drinking. OK, what about anything else?
Not buying this at all. JMO

Ayla was at the home when Elisha DiPietro went to bed, and she was not there in the morning,

Yes, but was Ayla alive when Elisha went to bed? Was Ayla sleeping? What did she have for supper that night? What activities did Ayla do before she went to bed that night?JMO

Sounds like she might be feeling the pressure, so this new statement is supposed to show solidarity among the family who were in the house that night.

Trouble is, these "normalcy" statements make Ayla sound like a sack of flour or some other inanimate object.

"When I went to bed the breadbox/toaster/tv/Ayla was there and when I woke up the breadbox/toaster/tv/Ayla was gone."
