Ex-Martha's Vineyard Fire Chief Filmed Sex Acts Without Consent: DA
MARTHA’S VINEYARD, MA — A former Martha’s Vineyard fire chief is being held without bail after it was alleged he filmed a person during a sexual encounter without their consent.
John Rose, 53, of Martha’s Vineyard, was arrested on Saturday and is charged with photographing, videotaping or electronically surveilling a partially nude or nude person.
On Dec. 14, 2023, it was reported to the Massachusetts State Police Detective Unit assigned to the Cape and Islands District Attorney’s Office that Rose possessed a video recording of a person performing sexual acts on him, and that this was done without this person’s consent.
An investigation by that department led to Rose’s arrest over the weekend.
He is currently being held without bail, and will be arraigned in the Edgartown District Court on Monday.
When Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey is informed of the latest scandal, indictment, or attempted billion-dollar bid-rigging etc., she inevitably claims to be as astonished as everyone else.

A teenager was pulled from a pond in Milton, Massachusetts, after he went missing while swimming Saturday night.
The Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office said the teenaged male was taken to a Boston area hospital following the incident at Houghton’s Pond. It’s unclear how long the teen was under water, and there was no immediate word on his condition.
State police had said earlier that they responded to the pond shortly after 7 p.m. for a person who entered the water and didn’t resurface. State police divers, detectives, troopers, and the Milton Fire Department were all on scene involved in the search.
The DA’s office is conducting an investigation with state police that remains ongoing. Further information is not being released at this time.

A Massachusetts man is facing multiple charges for allegedly engaging in inappropriate communications and exposing himself to children.
Orate Kyle Graham, 20, of Bridgewater, was arrested this week on two counts of disseminating obscene material to a minor and one count of accosting or annoying another person.
Bridgewater police said they were made aware Tuesday of allegations involving interactions between several girls age 12 and 13 and an individual known to them only as “Jay.” The individual said he was 17 years old during conversations with the girls through FaceTime and in person.
Through an investigation, police identified “Jay” as Graham, and also found that he had regularly engaged in interactions with the minor victims. During those interactions, he allegedly exposed himself and asked the girls to expose themselves to him.
He was arrested Thursday and taken to the Plymouth County House of Correction, where he was held on $25,000 bail. The case remains under investigation by Bridgewater police and the Plymouth District Attorney’s Office.
