Malden city worker accused of embezzlement

Was she caught stuffing it down her bra????? It is going on everywhere!!!!

I'm shocked that this could happen in, of all places, the most family friendly city in MA!!

I think the editors should watch what their writers are producing as copy. This sentence (State Police arrested Cox on Thursday after she allegedly met one of the false payees and give him with one of these checks.) is not written correctly. It should be "and gave him one of the checks." I was a journalist major in college and we were always taught to make sure our sentences were short but grammatically correct. Not to go on a bandwagon but I see a lot of this on the internet and the writer in me wants to go and teach each of them a class on sentence structure. Thank you for letting me say my peace.

It always seems to be a wetback robbing us blind.

I'm surprised it wasn't Medford.....chicks aren't too swift there, but I guess the same holds true for Malden.

Why doesn't this surprise me. I bet she gats a slap on the wrist. Send her to jail. Everyong is having a hard time these days, and she just rips us all off. Typical

How can the Globe expect us to rant about this, when we haven't been told if she is a Republican or a Democrat?

How is this much different than the 3 fireman who have been getting paid for years on phoney disability..Dump the God-damned public employee unions and the civil service boards and let these bastards go to work like the rest of us. They should be shot..

HA HA...Yup, GREAT place to raise your kids!!!

NO wonder, my real estate tax keeps getting higher and higher while the side walks in my street gone for years unrepaired. Shame in the Mayor office and its incompetent staff

Say wasn't this a number 1 city to raise a family????

What will this do to Malden's #1 ranking? Will people refuse to raise their kids there anymore???? Let's hope US News doesn't find out....

Blame Richard Nixon. After all if the prersident of the U.S. can be a immoral lying pig why not everyone.

IN YOUR FACE BUSSINESS WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Malden could've used that money to beautify itself!!! Cuz it sure needs a makeover

Please remove posting #8 from this blog. There is no need for abusive language.

Shouldn't that read "piece"? I see so much of this on the internet...

To Lucille: Physician, heal thyself. I'm pretty sure that colleges have journalism programs, not majors in "journalist." And how exactly does one "go on a bandwagon"? At least you had an opportunity to say your piece. (Not peace.)

I think some people around here are living in a LALA land. Malden was ranked #1 city to raise a family about 20 or 30 years ago. right now it's full with corrupt government that help themselves first, crimes and dirt.

Here is what some of the people around here need to do, turn off your computers and go take a drive around Malden and you'll see what a disgrace these streets are. no streets cleaned, no sidewalk repairs not signs on the street for flying cars, no police presence anywhere...etc then go and take a drive to Medford or Somerville to see the difference.

Do you think this Cox person is the first or the last one or the only one who is stealing? These are city officials that you’ve helped elect not only they stole your money buy they are also charging you to take your trash out…….what’s next????????????

we know she is a DemocRAT!!!!!!!!!!!

So, now that the theft has stopped and the coffer will have money in it, can we stop paying to dump our trash? Where else is the money leaking from?

The best part is that her husband is a Malden Cop and her father holds a management position within the City

Just wondering ........ What the reason was for Eastern Avenue in Malden to have a sewer line installed twice ( 2 times ) maine road dug up two times in a year............ Could the contractor be close to the Mayor ? someone else in cith hall ? It boggles the mind..........

I was going to write about Lucille Duddy's pathetic pot calling the kettle black but she should be sufficiently humiliated already. What "journalism" school did she go to? Very sad.

Lucille, I think you read the article incorrectly, b/c the sentence you are referring to is grammatically correct. You actually typed it incorrectly. Direct from the article, it reads, "State Police arrested Cox on Thursday after she allegedly met one of the false payees to give him one of these checks." Your wrote, "...met one of the false payees and give him.."

No wonder, Malden is short 5million dollars....they are all stealing !!!!

I hear its more of like $500,000.00 right now. What a disgrace although if they look harder Im sure they'll find more within other departments. SInce our local newspaper won't do a story on a former city councillor and cuurent City employee arrested on assault charges (not the first time either) and it wasn't his wife maybe the globe will pick up the story

Her husband is a Malden Cop.

Don't hate!

Its just a city full of Old Irish alcoholic politicians with a last hold on power. They run Malden like its their pub with minimal everything necessary to keep the city crawl pace. Wouldn't we like to know what's being stolen from all the projects that have never kicked off? Oh, ask the cities consulting arm. Hee Hee!

Let me get this straight.. Our taxes go up because there isn't enough new development in malden... ??? Our water bills are converted to monthly, just as they hike up the cost... HOPING that we're all too stupid to notice! We're PAYING for trash bags because they're not making enough $$$$ in taxes.... But this chick is robbing us blind.... AND NOBODY NOTICES!!!!!!! And don't even get me started on how much $$$ this city shells out to citizens to replace tires damaged from the freaking pot holes in this city... Hint... FIX the streets, and don't send 5 men to do a 2 person job... One to fill the whole, one to rake the new tar, and 3 to stand around drinking coffee and observe... AHHHHHHH!

i

everyone is innocent until proven guilty !!!!!!!what happen to that law

I wonder why they're keeping the guys name out of it. I bet it is her husband who is the Malden cop!!!

Her husband is a malden cop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HELLO PEOPLE!!!

It's ok she is from a very rich Italian family that has alot of power behind them so all she will get is a slap on the wrist and she will be back on the streets. So Malden will loose thier money and we will never fix our city.

PS thier is more to this family than you people think open your eyes.

Her husband is a POLICE OFFICER. There is no way that he didnt know his WIFE had a issue with Oxy's...especially if it was 15 pills a day...I'm curious to know what the real story is, he makes a few busts brings home Mama the good stuff and then shes happy?

Wanna know where your tax dollars are? Why don't you look @ the brand new Cadillac Escalade Mr Nick Cox is driving around with some NON FACTORY rims on it...hmmm...its balogny..their all crooks...

ok posting number 36
guess you can't spell THEIR!
open up a book and read!

Jesus, Gia. What were you thinking? I held you in a much higher standard then doing something like this. It's a shame what you've done to your families reputation. How are you going to look your son in the face when he gets older? I hope Nick wasn't involved too, although hard to think otherwise. You guys never grew up, huh? It's a tough world we live in and I can only pray you fall like you should.
