Boston police are reportedly investigating the death of an unidentified person at “Squad” member Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s (D-Mass.) husband’s home.
The Boston Police Department’s (BPD) spokesman Officer James Moccia spoke with TMZ and confirmed that officers did respond to a death at 25 Malta Street in Boston’s Mattapan neighborhood around 1:50 p.m. local time on Saturday, July 18. This location is the home of Pressley’s husband, a convicted felon. Initially BPD classified it as an “investigate person” call, but this turned into a death investigation. The reported death follows on a police raid at the house, which is evidently a rental property.
Conan Harris, Pressley’s husband of more than a decade, owns the house, but it is not clear if he was there at the time of the BPD response. In fact, reportedly the couple does not live there. Therefore, it seems likely that someone who was renting or visiting the house died there.
Pressley and Harris collect up to $350,000 in rent from multiple Massachusetts properties. The Mattapan property could be worth $100,000 annually to the couple.
