Dec 4, 2006 - Leonard Palumbo, Lewiston-Porter Board of Education member, has been arrested and charged with stalking the family of a district teacher and coach. Palumbo was arraigned later in the day on fourth-degree stalking charges and ordered to stay away from Sweeney and his family.
It’s unknown what impact Palumbo’s arrest Monday will have on his school board status.
