LYNN – The jury hearing Thomas Commeret’s trial on assault and battery and threats could hear testimony about a bar he kept in his charter school office – and testimony about his accuser’s reputation for honesty.Lynn District Court Judge Ellen Flatley heard 90 minutes of arguments by Boston Attorney Jay Carney and Assistant District Attorney Kim Faitella Wednesday morning. In the end, the judge said she will talk to certain witnesses before deciding whether they can testify.Commeret, 55, the former head of the Marblehead Community Charter Public School, will face trial May 20 for allegedly shoving a 14-year-old girl student against a door in April 2007, and telling her, “If you tell anyone about this I will (expletive deleted) find you.” The girl said the assault occurred after she walked by the open door to Commeret’s office, saw him drinking from a paper cup and asked if he were drinking alcohol.Faitella wants to call a former charter school teacher who will testify that she saw liquor bottles hidden inside an antique globe in Commeret’s office and heard jokes about it.Carney referred to the globe as “a joke gift” and said no one ever saw Commeret drink in school. He said the testimony was “irrelevant,” but the judge disagreed.Flately said she would question the witness out of earshot of the jury – a procedure courts refer to as voir dire – and make a determination whether the witness could testify. “If it is an observation I’m inclined to let the witness testify,” she said.Carney wants to call three teenage witnesses who know the assault victim and will impeach her reputation for honesty.Faitella argued that those witnesses would “make a couple of assertions” but they were not qualified to speak about the situation before the court.The judge said she would voir dire those witnesses as well before allowing them to testify, and she obtained Carney’s promise not to mention the victim’s honesty on his opening statement or his cross examination before the voir dire took place.The lawyers spent most of the morning arguing over various points in the police report written by Police Sgt. Marian Keating, who said she called Commeret into her office May 13 at 5 p.m. and told him that he was accused of assaulting the victim. Commeret denied the assault, asked what he should do and, when Keating told him a mainstream administrator would report the charge to the superintendent of schools and be placed on leave, Commeret said “I am the superintendent – let the girl stay home.”Commeret eventually left the station, sought legal counsel and refused to make a statement to police.Faitella wanted Commeret’s denial excluded. Carney wanted his last statement excluded. In the end, the judge ruled that both should stay in.The lawyers also debated the inclusion of an observation by Keating that Commeret leaned forward and glared at her when he said, “Let the girl stay home.”The judge said she would voir dire Keating before her testimony and rule on that.
