CLEVELAND, Ohio- Greater Cleveland community activists, after rallying  in downtown Cleveland on Public Square today against a decision by a New York grand jury not to indict officers in the killing of unarmed Black man Eric Garner, will hold a public meeting at 4 pm on Saturday, Dec.6 at the Main Classroom Auditorium at Cleveland State University

The event is billed as a discussion on police murder and the New Jim Crow, and to organize for a week of protesting in Cleveland around mass incarceration and police brutality, beginning on Monday, Dec. 8.

The meeting comes on the heels of a scathing report announced yesterday by Attorney General Eric Holder of findings by the U.S. Department of Justice against the largely White Cleveland Police Department from excessive deadly force to illegal tasing and pistol whipping of Blacks and others by Cleveland cops.

Also at issue are police killings in Cleveland in recent weeks from Tanisha Anderson, who was killed three weeks ago at her home on the city's east side by Cleveland police while in handcuffs, and the shooting death on Nov 22 at a public park on Cleveland's west side of unarmed 12-year-old Tamir Rice. Both Anderson and Rice were Black.(www.clevelandurbannews.com) / (www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com)

Chief and unfair Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo loses authority-Part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption: New Ohio law on seeking possible removal of a municipal court judge in a case for bias or conflict via the filing of an affidavit of prejudice takes authority to decide from chief Cuyahoga County Presiding Judge John Russo, other chief common pleas judges in Ohio, and hands it to the chief justice of the Ohio Supreme Court, who also determines affidavits of prejudice filed against common pleas, probate, juvenile, domestic relations, and state appellate court judges....Most affidavits of prejudice are denied regardless of the merits and some judges complained of will retaliate, data show... Community activists, led by Cleveland activist Kathy Wray Coleman of the Imperial Women Coalition, lobbied the Cleveland NAACP for support and asked state legislators via state Rep Bill Patmon (D-10) of Cleveland to change the law but wanted a panel of judges and others to decide when a judge in Ohio is disqualified from hearing a case for bias or conflict....Coleman says she has since been further harassed by Chief Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo, who is White and leads a racist and sexist common pleas court fueled with corruption, malicious prosecutions, excessive criminal bonds, ineffective assistance of counsel to poor and Black defendants, and the mass incarceration of the Black community....By www.clevelandurbannews.com and www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read digital Black newspapers....This is part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption
