Dianne X

State Senator Dianne Wilkerson, who is waging a write-in campaign to retain the seat she has held for 15 years, denied yesterday that she lied under oath at a 2005 court hearing, as alleged by a state office that investigates complaints against lawyers.



Her testimony was challenged by the two detectives and prompted the Boston Police Detectives Benevolent Society to lodge a complaint with the Bar Counsel. On Oct. 3, the Bar Counsel filed a peti tion for discipline that accused Wilkerson of violating the rules of conduct for lawyers by lying under oath at the hearing.

The petition for discipline said that Wilkerson, who joined the bar in 1981 but has not practiced in a decade, gave “intentionally false, misleading, and deceptive testimony” when she said in Suffolk Superior Court that she was present at the interview of Isaac Wilkerson.

She also lied, the complaint said, when she testified that the detectives turned a tape recorder off and on during the interview. The Bar Counsel said she also lied to the office about both matters in a 2006 letter and in testimony on Feb. 29 this year.

Yesterday, Wilkerson’s lawyer, Max D. Stern, filed a three-page answer that consisted largely of one-word responses

What the Globe doesn’t report is that the “one-word responses” was just the F-bomb, over and over.
