Dedham, MA – In a surprising twist during his recent court appearance, Aidan Kearney, a 42-year-old blogger from Holden, Massachusetts, popularly known as “Turtleboy,” blew a kiss to the camera as his domestic violence case was continued to a later date. The incident unfolded at Dedham District Court, a month after a judge had revoked Kearney’s bail in connection with an alleged assault and battery incident at a Medfield home in late December.
The charges stem from an incident on the night of December 22, 2023, when Kearney turned himself in to police for an alleged assault and battery at the home of an ex-girlfriend. The prosecution claims that Kearney, upon learning that his ex-girlfriend had been summoned to testify in front of a grand jury, went to her residence, physically shoved her, and issued threats.
This disturbing episode occurred mere hours after Kearney had been arraigned on 16 felony charges related to intimidation of a witness, conspiracy to intimidate a witness, and picketing a witness. The charges suggest a pattern of behavior aimed at obstructing legal proceedings.
