M-A-F-F-E-O.

Shanan Buckingham (0:32)

And where are you employed, sir?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (0:34)

Duxbury Police Department.

Shanan Buckingham (0:35)

How long have you been a police officer?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (0:38)

Twelve years.

Shanan Buckingham (0:40)

And has your career been with the Duxbury Department or do you work anywhere else?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (0:44)

I worked in Rockland and Coasset prior to Duxbury.

Shanan Buckingham (0:47)

So how long have you been at Duxbury Police? Nine years. Nine?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (0:50)

Yes.

Shanan Buckingham (0:50)

What's your current rank or assignment at the Duxbury Police Department?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (0:53)

Patrol Sergeant.

Shanan Buckingham (0:54)

And I'm going to draw your attention back to January of 2023 What was your assignment then?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (0:59)

A detective.

Shanan Buckingham (1:01)

Were you working on January 24th of 2023?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:05)

I was not. I was called in to work.

Shanan Buckingham (1:08)

Okay. So who contacted you?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:10)

At the time, it was Detective Sergeant Jamali.

Shanan Buckingham (1:14)

And is that the normal course in Duxbury when a larger incident or investigation occurs that sometimes you'd be called in to work a scene if you're not on shift?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:25)

Yes.

Shanan Buckingham (1:26)

And Detective Jamali, where did he tell you to go?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:32)

Initially, it was reported, I believe, as 42 Summer Street in Duxbury.

Shanan Buckingham (1:38)

And so do you recall if you went to that location? I did. When you arrived there, was the scene still active, meaning there were still kind of ambulances and everything on scene?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:47)

Yes.

Shanan Buckingham (1:48)

Did you go into the house?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:50)

Not at that time, no.

Shanan Buckingham (1:51)

Were you advised when you arrived on scene that one of the parties was being sent to the South Shore Hospital?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (1:57)

Yes.

Shanan Buckingham (1:58)

And so as a result of that information, what did you do?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:01)

I was then tasked with going down to South Shore Hospital.

Shanan Buckingham (2:05)

Now, when you went to South Shore Hospital, did you know the party that was going to be transported there?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:10)

Yes.

Shanan Buckingham (2:11)

Who was the party that you were going to meet?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:13)

I was advised it was one of the homeowners, Lindsay Clancy.

Shanan Buckingham (2:17)

And you later became aware that the home at 47 Summer Street was the home of Patrick and Lindsay Clancy, correct?

Richard Lippard (2:24)

That's correct.

Shanan Buckingham (2:25)

And again, you were also later made aware that they had the three children.

Richard Lippard (2:29)

Correct.

Shanan Buckingham (2:30)

Were you advised of where the three children were?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:33)

Yes.

Shanan Buckingham (2:34)

And how about the husband? Were you advised of where Patrick Clancy was?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:37)

I was.

Shanan Buckingham (2:38)

As far as the people transported to South Shore Hospital, you came to learn that only Lindsay Clancy was sent to that location, correct?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:45)

That's correct.

Shanan Buckingham (2:46)

Did you expect somebody else to be arriving there?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (2:48)

Initially before I had left the residence, it was a little bit of confusion. They thought that the husband was also being transported to South Shore.

Shanan Buckingham (2:56)

And at some point, were you later advised that that ambulance was turned around and sent to Beth Israel and Plymouth?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (3:01)

Correct.

Shanan Buckingham (3:03)

So when you were at the South Shore Hospital, did you have an opportunity to observe Lindsay Clancy?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (3:08)

I did.

Shanan Buckingham (3:09)

And what condition was she when you observed her at South Shore Hospital?

Mark Anthony Maffeo (3:13)

She appeared sedated and unconscious with several lacerations to her arms and neck.
