This was to allegedly avoid potential harassment,  according to Jackson spokesperson Maureen Harper. He will be out in time for the November 5 general election for Cleveland mayor and city council. He faces Marcus Henley after he won the nonpartisan primary earlier this month by a landslide. A Cleveland Municipal Court jury found Reed

His  license will remain suspended until 2015 from his arrest in March after he left a night club in downtown Cleveland. But the Black east side councilman will not begin his sentence until Sept. 25, 15 days after the Sept 10 non-partisan primary election for Cleveland City Council. He served 10 days in 2008 for a second DUI but did no jail time for the first occurrence. Visiting former Willoughby, Ohio judge Larry Allen, whom Republican Ohio Supreme Cou

Cleveland Councilman Zack Reed, who faces a third DUI case, got tricked by his then attorney George Forbes into pleading guilty to a second DUI previously when police did not witness him driving the car and it was parked and he should have instead been charged with the lesser charge of having physical control of a car while intoxicated but not driving it, a charge that does not require jail time as Reed got in his second DUI case because of slick Forbes, Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Maureen O'Connor has handpicked a retired visiting judge from Willoughby, Ohio for Reed's third DUI case allegedly for Mayor Jackson, Forbes, others, and in violation of a state law that requires that visiting retired judges are to come from within the court's jurisdictional territory, Cleveland Municipal Court judges all recused themselves in both the second and third DUI cases at the urging of Chief Municipal Court Judge Ron Adrine to allegedly set Reed up where former Cleveland Judge Joan Synenburg properly heard Reed's first DUI case, and the claim that city council approves the court budget and that justifies the recusals is bogus where that is not a legitimate conflict and judges must have a presumption of fairness, Activist Kathy Wray Coleman says she was jailed and harassed for Mayor Jackson, Forbes, Call and Post officials, others in part for writing about judicial malfeasance and trying to warn Reed relative to his second DUI case, Coleman says she is still getting harassed and threatened and that Chief Justice O'Connor is corrupt and is harassing her too, Coleman says that Reed should seek to vacate his second DUI plea and conviction because then visiting retired judge Mary Trimboli was not and is not a retired judge as required by the Ohio Constitution
