Murder suspect Daniel Bradley will not return for another season as an assistant football coach at Xaverian Brothers High School, the school confirmed yesterday.
"Basically, he's a part-time seasonal employee whose contract ran out at Thanksgiving when the football season ended, and it will not be renewed this year," said Chuck Carmone, Xaverian's communications director. "With all the pending allegations, he won't be invited back."
Bradley, 47, had been a part-time assistant football coach at the Catholic boys school in Westwood since 2002. The position came with a paid stipend.
Carmone said Bradley's main duty was videotaping the team's games. Xaverian, a football power, went 7-4 last year.
Bradley, of 8 Windmill Lane in Westwood, and Dedham resident Paul Moccia, 48, are charged with first-degree murder in the death of Angel Antonio Ramirez, 37, of Framingham.
At their arraignment earlier this week, Assistant District Attorney Robert Nelson said Moccia shot Ramirez in the back during the night of March 20. Then, while Moccia drove Ramirez's pickup truck back to his Framingham neighborhood, Bradley took the body into his family's Walpole concrete business, R.J. Bradley Co., where it was dismembered and "cooked," according to the prosecutor.
Authorities are still investigating specifically what "cooked" meant.
Nelson said Monday that no weapon or body has been recovered, and that the Guatemalan immigrant's body most likely will not be found.
Bradley and Moccia pleaded not guilty. They are being held without bail at Norfolk County Correctional Center in Dedham until a July 7 court date.
Xaverian hired Bradley as a football coach a year after Walpole police arrested him for cocaine possession. The case was later dropped after a judge deemed a police search of Bradley's car to be unconstitutional.
Carmone said Xaverian Brothers requires employees and volunteers to complete an application for Criminal Offender Record Information, or CORI, with the Executive Office of Public Safety providing results to the school.
In Bradley's case, "There was no record of any arrests reported to Xaverian when Mr. Bradley applied as a seasonal part-time, assistant football coach in 2002, nor were there any reports of issues about off-campus activities during his employment at our school," Carmone said in a statement.
Bradley's 2001 arrest was dismissed, so it did not show up on the CORI check, Carmone said.
Bradley's Dedham lawyer, John Gibbons, could not be reached for comment late yesterday.
