PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Berkshire District Attorney David F. Capeless has announced the appointment of three new assistant district attorneys.
 
 Robert D. Sullivan Jr., 25, and Jeffrey P. Morgan, 28, joined the office in October; John P. Bosse, 29, started his duties this month. 
 
Capeless said all three are assigned to prosecute cases in the District Court and are filling vacancies created by the departure of three other assistant district attorneys over the past year.
 
Bosse is a graduate of Providence (R.I.) College and a 2006 graduate of the Massachusetts School of Law in Andover.  He grew up in Salem and now lives in Pittsfield.

 
Morgan graduated from Harvard College and is a 2007 graduate of the Northeastern School of Law in Boston. He grew up in Medford and now resides in Pittsfield.
 
Sullivan is a graduate of the University of Miami and is a 2008 graduate of the New England School of Law in Boston.  He grew up in Peabody and now lives in Pittsfield.  

"It was disappointing to lose three talented and hard-working prosecutors, but I am pleased that we have been able to fill their positions with three new, equally talented and, I am sure we will find out over the next few months, equally hard-working assistants," said Capeless.

BVNA Nurses Raise Funds for Berkshire Bounty

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Massachusetts Nursing Association members of the Berkshire Visiting Nurses Association raised $650 to help with food insecurity in Berkshire County.
 
The nurses and health-care professionals of BVNA have given back to the community every holiday season for the last three years. The first year, they adopted a large family, raised money, bought, wrapped and delivered the gifts for the family. Last year, they sold raffle tickets and the money raised went to the charitable cause of the winner. 
 
This year, with food insecurity as a rising issue, they chose to give to Berkshire Bounty in Great Barrington.
 
They sold raffle tickets for a drawing to win one of two items: A lottery ticket tree or a gift certificate tree, each worth $100. They will be giving the organization the donation this month.
 
Berkshire Bounty seeks to improve food security in the county through food donations from retailers and local farms; supplemental purchases of healthy foods; distribution to food sites and home deliveries; and collaborating with partners to address emergencies and improve the food system.
