MacGillivary was arrested last Wednesday near a vacant lot in his home town of Billerica by patrolman Emile Steele, who testified that he was MacGillivary abandon a car, walk down a road, and throw the car keys into the woods.

Dancing was total depravity to Picasso, who was otherwise unbothered by convention...
