Judge tells Pembroke pol (Daniel Webster (R)) to pay up after breakup

A judge has ordered a Pembroke state lawmaker to pay back nearly $200,000 in an overdue bank loan and fees, which he said piled up after a relationship with his then-girlfriend ended, leaving him on the hook for the six-figure sum.

State Rep. Daniel Webster (R-Pembroke) must pay $191,107 to Rockland Trust Co. after the bank foreclosed on the Pembroke condo in which he was the co-maker of the mortgage for his then-girlfriend.

“If I would have been able to sell the condominium, I would have,” Webster told the Herald.

“I was involved in a relationship that just didn’t work out. When we moved on, (she) decided to try to keep the condo and apparently that didn’t work out.”
