Scott Brown was not always the self-assured state senator, lawyer, National Guard officer, triathlete, and Republican candidate for US Senate that he is today. Far from it.
He was once a shaggy-haired 12-year-old growing up in Wakefield, drifting into trouble. His parents divorced when he was a year old, he said, and each remarried three times.
Asked if he had ever been arrested, Brown, choking up at times, related a story he said he had never told:
My mom was on welfare a little bit, and, you know, I lived with my grandparents, I lived with my aunt, whatever. I was a jerk. I had some issues. You know, I was lost. . . .
Mom was always working. . . . There was some violence in there where I would be sticking up for my mom and sisters. . . . I may get a little emotional. . . . And one day I was out with some older kids. . . . We were in Salem. . . . I had a pair of farmer overalls, and I stuck some records in them. . . . I was walking out, and a guy caught me.
And so I was arrested and went over to Salem District Court, and Judge [Samuel] Zoll . . . gets me in his chambers, and he says:
So, tell me about yourself. I see you like music.; I said, Yeah, I love music. I like Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and Grand Funk, all that stuff.
He says, What else do you do?

I haven’t had time to read this piece yet, but thanks for posting the photo! I think we have to say that he’s always been GOOD looking, yes?
Ya know what I’m thinking ? YES !!!
lol ..
Good article .. you’ll like .. he’s
a unique cat ;)
Wow! Just WOW!
Thank you for posting. This was written in November, when he was still considered a ‘token’ candidate so Globe didn’t mind writing about him in positive light.
Wow, he even loads his own stuff instead of letting “the little people” do it. Are you watching, Queen Nancy?
Oh my!...........
Looks like he may have done a little modeling while in college...Know a couple of kids who worked their way through that way....Using one of his portfolio pictures (Often paid for my the agency) would certainly be cheaper than buying the ones the university suggests.
You’re probably right .. wonder how many
their staff will have to pink slip ..LOL..
There was a young child (I think a boy with longer hair) pictured next to Brown in one of the pictures of yesterday. WHen on stage he stood in front of Gayle (with her arms around him. Later while Brown was speaking, I saw a member of the family bring him up front (maybe so he could see). He mentioned that he had step sisters,and a brother wonder if the little guy is one of their children or how he fits into the family....He certainly was shown a lot of love and patience.
I saw that pic .. it was his niece .. ;)
Thought maybe that was the case...certainly a loved child who adores her uncle.
