S. Kingstown councilman pleads innocent to disorderly conduct

SOUTH KINGSTOWN -- Town Councilman Paul Tasich pleaded innocent to disorderly conduct today in District Court, Wakefield.

He and his wife, Kimberly, were arrested late Friday after complaints about loud music and obscenities coming from their home at 33 Eagle Nest Terrace.

The police charged Kimberly Tasich, 43, with simple assault against her daughter and a police officer, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. She pleaded innocent to all counts. They were released on personal recognizance.

Tasich, 41, said he had no intention of resigning the council post he held for the past two years. ``The whole story will come out. ...I'm innocent until proven guilty,'' he said.

He intends to seek re-election as a Democrat in November.
