<h3 class="title">Haddad Requests "Advisory Opinion"</h3>
<h4 class="titlesmall">Update – October 7, 2005</h4>
<p>It was my intent to share with you, at this time, the results of the investigation
into the State Board, its members, its investigator, and its legal counsel;
and their individual roles in the “colossal conspiracy” we have
uncovered as a result of the twenty-two (22) month investigation undertaken
to date. So voluminous are our records and so damaging to the credibility
of the State Board and several funeral directors in Central Massachusetts
are the findings, that I have decided to request the appointment of a “Special
Prosecutor” to review all the facts we have gathered to date.</p>
<p>I have been advised that I have the right to strict confidentiality of
my name and the nature of the information or complaints I will provide and
complaint(s) I may file. I have advised State Authorities this will not
be necessary, as I operated ONLY with both “hands on top of the table”
and stand for “Who I Am” and “Let the facts speak for
themselves.”</p>
<p>During the investigation alluded to above, several instances of potential
irregularities have been suggested or surfaced that we felt necessitated
a request for an “Advisory Opinion” from the State Board of
Registration of Funeral Directors & Embalmers. Knowing the State Board
encourages Funeral Directors and others to seek advisory opinions as they
deem appropriate, I initiated the following request for an “Advisory
Opinion” from the State Board of Registration of Funeral Directors
and Embalmers on Thursday, September 29, 2005 and shall publish on this
web site the timely response anticipate from the State Board.</p>
<div class="insert"><p>September 29, 2005<br>
State Board of Registration of <br>
Funeral Directors & Embalmers<br>
Commonwealth of Massachusetts<br>
239 Causeway Street<br>
Boston, MA 02114</p>
<p>Request for an “Advisory Opinion”</p>
<p>I am aware that it is unlawful in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for
a funeral establishment to arrange for the transfer/removal of a deceased
human being or to transport a deceased human being without one or more of
those participating in the transfer to be licensed by the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. Is my understanding of the matter correct thus far?</p>
<p>I request an “advisory opinion” as to the penalty/penalties
that would likely be assessed to a funeral home and/or funeral director
that intentionally violated this regulation on one occasion / and then again
on many more occasions. In doing so, and for the purposes of this advisory
opinion, let us assume the name and license number of a licensed funeral
director was used by the non licensed person(s) making the transfer –
thereby falsifying the officials records maintained by the hospital, nursing
home, etc. For willfully and intentionally violating the regulations and
thereby falsifying official records associated with the passing of a deceased
human being on more than one occasion, what could one expect the penalties
to be imposed?</p>
<p>Falsifying a nurse pronouncement form at the nursing home or at the home
when a hospice nurse completes the form, and intentionally providing information
to the nursing home staff nurse or the hospice staff nurse at the time that
is known to be false and in violation of the regulations for the transfer
of a deceased human being, would provide very serious consequences, would
it not?<br>

<p>And lastly, if an administrative staff member (with or without the knowledge
of the funeral director and/or owner of the funeral home) completed blank
portions of a nurse pronouncement form inserting the name and license number
of a licensed funeral director as making the transfer of the deceased human
being, knowing full well that the licensed funeral director DID NOT MAKE
and WAS NOT present for any part of the transfer of the deceased human being,
what consequences and sanctions could the administrative staff member as
well as the funeral home and funeral director expect to receive assuming
the aforementioned circumstances were proven true?</p>
<p>I thank you in advance for your attention to this request for an “Advisory
Opinion”, and I anxiously await your response.</p>
<p>Respectfully,</p>
