The Boston Globe violated the court Order last Saturday by reporting that Commissioner Driscoll had fired two employees because of the March 25 conference which instructed on graphic sexual activity.

The court’s Order, which was written by lawyers for "Gay and Lesbian Advocates & Defenders" and signed by a Superior Court judge in secret without notice to anyone, extended to any "persons" in "participation with them [Brian Camenker and Scott Whiteman of the Parents Rights Coalition] in any attempted disclosure or dissemination of the contents of the above-referenced workshop."

This very broad language applied to anyone who talked about anything that happened at the Conference. Any such disclosure would have to be in "participation" with the people who released the tape and disclosed its contents.

Therefore, when Comm. Driscoll announced that one employee of the Department of Education had been dismissed and one had resigned, he was violating the Order because he obviously had to discuss why they were being fired which was known only because of the tape recording. 

And when the Boston Globe reported about the firings and what had occurred at the Conference, it also violated the Order, because it also reported some of what had happened at the Conference.

Lawyers said it is clear that the lawyers for Gay and Lesbian Advocates & Defenders had to have lied to the judge in order to induce him to sign such a draconian order in secret.
