On the same week the alleged victim in the case involving City Councilor Corey Robinson released a statement proclaiming his innocence, InsideLowell has learned of new claims that the 2012 restraining order used to help declare him “dangerous” involves a case of mistaken identity.
The 2012 “abuse order” in question was introduced by Middlesex Assistant District Attorney Isabelle Bertolozzi during the November 17th court proceedings as evidence that there were no conditions that would satisfy the alleged victim’s safety.
However, a court filing last Wednesday, December 20, by the defense asks for the conditions of his release to be modified because the Corey Robinson in the 2012 case is a different person. The filing also asserts the D.A.’s office filed a notice “stating the same” the previous day, December 19th.
Efforts to contact Robinson’s defense attorney, Ryan Sullivan, have been unsuccessful. The D.A.’s office also did not respond to our requests for comment on the case of mistaken identity.
Last Tuesday, InsideLowell was able to confirm the legitimacy of a statement released by the alleged victim in the case on the Lowell Live Feed Forum Facebook Page.
As part of that statement, she proclaimed “Mr. Corey Robinson is innocent of the allegations being yielded against him, including, sexual misconduct and domestic assault and battery against my person.”
The alleged victim’s statement is also referenced in the December 20 court documents filed by Attorney Sullivan, who asks that in conjunction with the mistaken identity involving the 2012 case and other documented reasons, that “the condition of a GPS bracelet should be vacated.”
