Union leaders warned of a teachers strike if layoffs proceed, with about 200 educators at risk.

Blaikie Case Faces Publicity Threat to Fair Trial
The Blaikie case includes extrajudicial police statements that may jeopardize a fair trial or the state's interests if Blaikie is convicted. DeWilde's body was found in a cemented plastic bag at a Brookline house once owned by Blaikie. He faced a $25,000 bond on forgery, larceny, and perjury charges related to a Boston business associate's death. Blaikie was returned to Boston from Phoenix and served as campaign treasurer for Sen. George McGovern in 1972.
