Beacon Mutual board meeting again tonight

WARWICK -- The board of directors for Beacon Mutual Insurance Co. is due to meet today at 5:30 p.m. -- this time, as regularly scheduled.

Embattled board member George H. Nee said yesterday he planned to attend the meeting, despite a move by Governor Carcieri last week to fire Nee and board member Henry R. Boeniger. Boeniger could not be reached for comment yesterday.

An attorney for both men asked Carcieri for a hearing to review their termination -- a move that prompted Carcieri to extend their termination date for one week.

It is unclear if Nee and Boeniger will participate in tonight's meeting, where the board is expected to continue discussing a recently-released report that revealed evidence of abuse within Beacon, the state's largest workers' compensation insurer.
