Inlaws...

Sweetbriar management are clearly NOT doing criminal background checks on prospective tenants despite requiring signed releases for criminal and credit checks as part of the application process. Or they chose to ignore the fact that Ms. Theriault has had multiple prior arrests.

She's nothing but a drunk.

Maybe we can get MTV to come to Barrington and we can start our own TV reality show.

Were's "curtain rod lady" these days?

I just checked and she has two shoplifting arrests & convictions 2008 & 2010 and a driving on a suspended license arrest & conviction in 2008. Background checks?????????????????????????????

They say on thanksgiving to be careful of how much people drink and who you sit next to !
:-)

No more low income housing, please!!!!!

It's Lorett's court day today. Merry Christmas A##H*&E!!!

LOL!! She's a mess, all I can say is: those poor kids!

Where is DCYF?

those poor kids is right. they have been unsupervised playing outside since they were a young as 3. It's pathetic. She's a poor excuse for a mother.

You tell me where DCYF is? she tried to jump out of a moving car in front of her kids! DCYF was told about this. Maybe they contacted her who knows. Anyone who knows Lori knows......poor lori is ALWAYS the victim. booo hooo

TO: MARY POPPINS...you "live like that" and have to be held accountable when your being subsidized on OUR TAX DOLLARS. You want to be taken care of and supported by tax dollars than you belong to the tax payers. don't like it, pay your own way.

I'm sure people have but as we all know, it seems DCYF doesn't step in until its too late.

Not everyone in Sweetbriar is like that nut! Believe it or not there's people that live hereand work and pay bills and mind there business! Most of the residents here are single parents! What's wrong with that??? Single parents that want good for there children! It's people like Lori and curtain rod lady that make it a bad name! There's more to the story of Curtain road lady! She's was a big drug addict, never mind the fact she was selling drugs out of her house! She made it seem like she was the good person when really curtain rod lady started all the drama here, as well as her son who was destroying the property!

Could anyone tell me anything about the curtain rod lady. I hear her mentioned and feel out of the loop because I know nothing about her. Just the short version please. Thanks

It sounds like those people should be removed from the facility! absolutely gross!

Maria: First of all everyone does get a break on their rent because Sweetbriar does not pay anywhere near the Barrington tax rate we all pay. I just looked at myself and didn't see a silver spoon. No one subsidises my home or taxes and I have never been in trouble in my life. I pay my taxes, don't burdon the police deptartment, fire deptarment or need any social services because I am responsible. I am retired and share a beautiful home in Barrington with my wife surounded by wonderful neighbors. You ask how I achieved this without a silver spoon. I drove a taxi 14 hours a day and invested well.

Maria, do you pay taxes in Barrington? If not you have not chosen to move here and make what we tax paying residents call an investment, OUR investment. This nice little town in no way needs three low income housing projects, yes Maria, that's what they are, projects. I know what goes on in there, the kids are out of control, the parents are ignorant and think they own the place. They own nothing, we, the tax payers own the place and we don't like it. I too, like B/stock work hard along with my husband to pay our mortgage and taxes so my daughter can take advantage of the schools. Yes, while there may be a couple of good character residents in sweetbriar the rest are just leeches. And as for curtain rod lady and Lori, I know them both and they are two losers and their kids are trouble makers.

Barrington taxpayers need to reach out to their state representatives and Town Council to help stop this "progress". The reason these types of developments are blossoming in town is because they can under State law - the law needs to be changed. Contact your state reps, but also your Town Council which seems to be rubber stamp happy on this issue right now. Newest development off Chachapacassett now moving quickly - am surprised our Rumstick neighborhood bretheren aren't out there in force over this issue. Regardless of your part of town, this is a small town and your voice can be heard. Please make every effort to attend the monthly Town Council meetings (next is Mon Jan 7 @ 6p), and bring as many friends as you can. There is a public comment section at every meeting - limited to 2 minutes, but step right up. If you can't attend the meetings, contact your State reps and Town Council reps directly and let them know your opinions on this or anything else going on. Here is the Barrington Town Council website which includes email addresses: http://72.46.3.26/towncouncil.php. You can review past meetings, upcoming agendas, etc. Posting your opinions on Patch is helpful to vent, but doesn't have the power of you reaching out to your state or local representatives. Remember - these folks are voted in, and are beholden to their communities.

Residents and voters of Barrington need to stop complaining about affordable housing! This is what you asked for and deserve by voting in the same old people last November. Our current general assembly legislators are at fault for voting for original affordable housing bill on not trying to change it over the last few years. You need to look at what is OUR legislators first priority this legislative cycle You think they would maybe work on improving the economy? Affordable housing law reform? No not either one of those issues, it is gay marriage. I wonder if that would have been the first bill out of the gate Peter Costa and myself would have sponsored or co-sponsored? Maybe we would have kept our promise that we ran on for repealing the affordable housing act and improving the business climate. Elections mean thing!

There is law that dictates each town and city must have a certain percentage of low income/affordable housing. Barrington, until sweetbriar apparently did not have enough. I guess a small, nice town with great schools and low crime are not allowed, they all must be ruined like all the rest. And as for voting....there aren't many people I voted for who got in. As a conservative I am very sickened by all offices these days.

So nobody wanted sweetbriar but ppl love to walk their family's through here bunch of barrington snobs so 1 person does something everyone is bad ... Not in 2013 look at all the "nice homes " with old worn siding and grass not cut ... Shame on you all ...

Random, what are you talking about, lol

Aren't we getting off the point here? This looser the article was written about is the type of people this nice little town doesn't need. No one watches their kids in sweetbriar, they think they own the whole place. Wonder what will happen to this looser when she goes to court.

Do you guys have a life. Seriously, like all you barrington losers worry about is commenting on this stuff. Get a life ad grow the fuck up! Its none of your buisness what goes on in other peoples lives you dont even know Lori so shut up! All you people make me sick! Like you all are so perfect. Next time you talk about people saying "shes a bad mom" and all this stuff look in the fucking mirror!!!

Random, you are very wrong, i do know Lori very very well. You obviously don't know her and if you do you must be as bad as her if you can't see what she's like. And I do have a life, I'm sure a much better life than you.

Random is probably Lori. Not very intelligent and no class.

Another sweetbriar resident on probation. They should just put a probation office right in sweetbriar and make it more convenient for them. Lol
