Brian Maloney of Astra-Zeneca gets another residential protest,cameraman assaulted
On the 25th of September, Brian Maloney, an executive specializing in "issues management" for Astra-Zeneca, got yet another protest in front of his ritzy downtown apartment. Animal rights activists were demanding that his company stop doing business with puppy-killing Huntingdon Life Sciences.
Again someone came out to claim that Brian Maloney does not live there. Again, requests for proof of this claim were ignored. Not only that, they were met with force as the person making the claim attempted to either steal or destroy the video camera!
In fact, protesters have presented additional evidence that Brian Maloney does in fact live in the building. Not only does his name on the callbox ring his phone and get his voice on the answering machine, but an "angry neighbor" who confronted a 7:30 AM Saturday morning protest there turned out to fit the description of Brian Maloney himself. Going over old footage, protest organizers have concluded that that man, who confronted the first protest and came out with another person who has been see every time thereafter, was in fact Brian Maloney.
Since that protest, in turn, was held with only the legally required two hours notice, and at that hour to stay ahead of Hurricane Irene, if that man was Brian Maloney, it is virtually certain that his business there was as a resident and not just to, say, take care of a phone callbox whose apartment number is wired to a home somewhere else.
One other matter came up: An SUV bearing Virginia tag XGT-2579 made at least four passes by the protest. There is some suspicion this could be another spy from the Virginia based FBI "Joint Terrorism Task Force."
