Just picked this up this morning. Since the NYT/Glob owns 17% of the Red Sox which also owns a large share of NESN cable this is fairly significant.

Someone needs an ass kicking...

Being a retired mediocre ball player is,it seems,quite lacerative.Weston is,by far,the richest town in metro Boston and is one of the richest in the nation.

Thank you for the Red Sox ping.

Thanks for the ping, misterrob. Yikes, how awful. If this is true, I doubt we'll be hearing Jerry talk about Jared anymore during Red Sox games. As GraniteStateConservative mentioned above, I also wonder if this is Jerry's body builder son (I think Jerry has two sons?).

I don't know about his son Jared, but hubby and I can attest that Jerry Remy is (or certainly appears to be) a REALLY nice guy... a real class act. We've had numerous opportunities to "hang out" with Jerry before Red Sox games - at "RemDawg's" on Yawkey Way, which is his barbeque place, and also where they do the outdoor NESN pre-game shows with Tom Caron, Dennis Eckersley, Jim Rice, et al.

We also went to Jerry Remy's All-Star Game Party during the All-Star game in July. Jerry couldn't have been a NICER host of this party for 1,000 fans... he would hang out talking to anyone and everyone (even "bleacher creatures" like us), pose for pics, sign books, hats, etc. for as long as fans wanted. It was an expen$ive party, but well worth it, in our opinion. We had the run of Fenway Park: .406 Club, All-Star Club, clubhouse tour, dugout, batting cages, pics taken with the WS trophy, and got to walk on the field (warning track) and posed with Wally in front of the Green Monster scoreboard. They broadcasted the All-Star Game on the jumbotron... you could sit anywhere in the park to watch it. And it was all you could eat... great food, too. Not just the usual ballpark stuff. Water and soft drinks were included; beer, wine and mixed drinks were extra.

I assume RemDawg will have this party again this July... could be a cool Red Sox fan FReeper get-together... ;-)

According to the Boston Herald:

"Jared Remy, the 27-year-old son of Red Sox broadcaster Jerry Remy, hid in his father’s Weston home Monday until police caught him and charged him with beating up his girlfriend.
“He was hiding in the house, but he was located after a search,” said Waltham Detective Sgt. Tim King."

In the prison hierarchy, I can't imagine that a woman-beater that hides from the police in his father's house will rate very high.
