Springfield's Sarno won't comment on Republican story linking City Hall to FBI probe

Earlier today, WAMC's Paul Tuthill asked Springfield Domenic Sarno about a published reportthat the FBI is investigating a political consultant's ties to the mayor's office. Tuthill asked if he was aware of an FBI investigation.

“Not that I’m aware of, and I stand by the comments I made in the paper, and in particular I hope people would judge me for the decisions I made as mayor," Sarno said. "And there’s more pressing issues that my administration will have to continue to deal with … I have no further comment.”

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
