596 F.Supp.2d 162 (2009)

Luis RIVERA v. David NOLAN.

United States District Court, D. Massachusetts.

February 9, 2009.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Luis Rivera, Norfolk, MA, pro se.

Maura D. McLaughlin, Susanne G. Reardon, Office of the Attorney General, Boston, MA, for David Nolan.


ORDER ON MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

STEARNS, District Judge.

As I agree with Magistrate Judge Collings' thoughtful Report, I will adopt his Recommendation and DISMISS the petition with prejudice. The Petition falls squarely within the broad class of recantation claims that, as Magistrate Judge Collings notes, are treated (for good reason) with skepticism. See United States v. Connolly, 504 F.3d 206
