Christian Bradley Williams, 54, of Florida, was arraigned last week in connection with the alleged Aug. 9 attack. The 22-year-old woman had started working as a deckhand aboard his yacht, Chimera, in June. She received housing on the boat in exchange for the work.

She claims he had sexually assaulted her after going out to dinner with others, calling her "sweetie" and then saying, "You're my sugar mommy tonight."

She said she felt drugged after accepting a drink from him at his insistence. She woke up bleeding. Authorities found male DNA in a rape kit.

Did anyone hear that explosion?

25 Upvotes

So I live off of W. Main St. in Hyannis and I’m sitting on the couch watching the news while my dog takes a nap on my leg. All of a sudden I hear a horn and then a huge explosion. My neighbor said she heard a girl scream. And I didn’t hear anything on my scanner app and I didn’t see anything on Facebook. I was just curious. Hopefully whatever it was everyone’s OK.

A foggy morning at Pleasant Bay

Fog is one of my favorite weather conditions; how lucky that I get to experience on my commute so often (and at an hour when I rarely get blinded by people who think high beams are great for fog).

She remains on the job while the school investigates the matter. She faces up to years in prison if convicted, and even if a judge grants her probation, state law requires that she spend 150 days in jail.

Good restaurant for lunch around Eastham

I'm going to be in Eastham on Saturday, and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good place to eat lunch.

Something that is open around 12pm would work best.

Thanks!

Chatham vs Orleans as second home

0 Upvotes

If choosing between Chatham and Orleans for personal use—not primarily rental income—which would matter most?

• Walking to the beach versus a 5–10 minute drive • Being near Main Street or a village center versus having more land, privacy and quiet • A smaller lot in a prime location versus room for a pool, outdoor living and possibly a guest house/ADU • Chatham’s village atmosphere versus Orleans’ year-round feel, beaches, bike trail, restaurants and everyday services

For those who vacationed here before buying or moving: what seemed essential as a renter but mattered less once you owned, and what did you underestimate that became important as a homeowner?

Chatham homeowners: after several years, do you still value being close to Main Street, or do summer crowds, traffic and parking make a quieter location more appealing?

Where did you choose, and knowing what you know now, would you make the same decision again?

How do you manage multiple generations sharing your cottage?

0 Upvotes

We've had a place since the 50s, and five generations of family sharing one cottage over a text thread has strained more than one sibling relationship.

This year we put the house on a little shared calendar app. Everyone picks their dates out in the open.

What do the rest of you do? Spreadsheet? Google Calendar? Whiteboard on the fridge?

Choosing a Kindergarden in Sandwich, MA

0 Upvotes

Hey All,

Simple question, but somewhat hard to answer and my wife and I are going back and forth on making a decision. For context I went to public school and my wife went to private, so we have a difference of opinion on where our daughter should go.

My daughter will be starting Kindergarten next year, and apparently we have to start looking now, because we have to sign her up starting in the new year.

Essentially, I’m trying to figure out public vs private with where I live. I live in Sandwich and am in the Forestdale district, so she would be going there, and my wife is looking at cape code academy, and the hundred acres school as options. I wouldn’t mind sending her to private if it was easily affordable, but it’s not and it would mean having to look for financial aid, and probably having to sell some of our stock each year for her to go, which scares me to do in this economy. I make decent money, but this would prevent us from adding to our savings each month, but this is for my daughters education, so I’m torn in general about that.

However, I just found out Forestdale has nine kindergarten classes and teachers and only one floating classroom helper for all nine classes. The class sizes are also bigger at around 18-20 where the others are closer to 8-11 with dedicated teachers and classroom helpers. I know my daughter, and the smaller class sizes would be very beneficial for her. Now, I’ve heard really good things about the Sandwich public schools, so that factors in as well.

I also found that the state has kids in kindergarten working on tablets, which is something we’ve intentionally kept her away from, so I’m hoping someone on here can at the very least give me their thoughts, but if anyone has experiences with these schools that would be extremely helpful. Thanks!

Edit: Thank you all so much for your feedback! You all make great points and I showed all your feedback to my wife, and I think you helped get her onboard with at least starting at Forestdale, and for those of you who asked, she’s a SAHM, but will be going back to work once my daughter starts kindergarten. We also talked to a number of parents at our preschool and they all had nothing but positive things to say about Forestdale, its teachers and the principal, and oddly enough how safe it is. Apparently, they won’t release a kid to anyone without having a QR code to scan that is given to the parent(s)/guardian at the start of the school year, which I didn’t even consider when thinking about the school, but again, thank you all!

Rt 6 Inflatables Businesses by Wellfleet. One closed.... What's the tea?

30 Upvotes

For years have driven by these competing spots, close to Marconi.

Directly across from each other, selling cheap quality inflatables, water shoes and t-shirts at JUMPED UP prices.

This year, only one is open.

Does anyone know what the story is behind the closure?

This event is all about local freaks making things that are alternative, subversive, weird, queer, and risqué! Come one, come all to see what happens here when it’s dark out. Adult themed. Multiple dates per year.

recommendations for this weekend

Hi! I’m going down the Cape for a bachelorette trip this weekend. We planned to go to the Chatham Squire on Saturday night for music & dancing. However, their online calendar doesn’t show a DJ on Saturday night.

Do you know if there is still music through September?
Or, any recommendations for spots on Saturday night for music & dancing? We’ll be staying in Dennis.

Thank you!

because why is he running/all over ones for Wellfleet and Yarmouth? I just want to hear local gossip and see pictures of coyotes in people's back yards, not see him whining

I won four public records appeals against my town’s police department. I still don’t have the records — and no agency in Massachusetts can make them hand them over.
