CLEVELAND, Ohio- The Imperial Women, the Carl Stokes Brigade, Black on Black Crime Vice President Al Porter, the Greater Cleveland Immigrant Support Network, Stop Targeting Ohio's Poor, other activists groups and family members of Blacks murdered and raped will  hold  a public meeting and press conference on Thursday, August 22, 2013 at 4:45 pm at the Chateau Mansion, 13124 Euclid Avenue, to legally deal with Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty, inequities against the Black community on violence against women, and whether Black elected officials and other leaders have done all they can to help. For more information contact Imperial Women at 216-659-0473. Speakers include community activists, Black elected officials, clergy, and rape and murder victims families.

 The groups will also deal with why the Rape Crisis and Domestic Violence Centers of the majority Black city of Cleveland are run by White women who rarely come into the ghettos of Cleveland and East Cleveland at all. And activists will assess whether Cleveland Ward 9 Councilman Kevin Conwell should be removed as chair of city council's safety committee for protecting negligent cops that ignore missing persons reports as well as his shielding of the 13 White police officers that gunned down unarmed Blacks Malissa Williams and Timothy Russell late last year with 137 bullets. 

Additionally at the meeting, activists will address actions by Federal District Court Judge Donald Nugent in dismissing the lawsuit claims filed by the families of some of the 11 women murdered on Imperial Avenue by serial killer Anthony Sowell and his branding the suits frivolous as a means to prejudice an appeal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, a venue that has overturned lawsuit dismissals by Nugent before that he has deemed frivolous.  And activists will   address Republican Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Maureen O' Connor as to her handpicking visiting out-of-Cuyahoga County judges to come into Cleveland in violation of state law to target Blacks like Cleveland Councilman Zack Reed, whose DUI case is underway where Cleveland Municipal Court judges arbitrarily refused to hear the case. This, say some community activists, was to help O' Connor do her handpicking of a retired, out-of-town judge to hand down the sentence she wants for her political friends if Reed is convicted.   (Note: The Zack Reed case is a traffic case that Cleveland Municipal Court judges routinely hear, even involving city employees.  If Black judges like Cleveland Municipal Judge Pinkey Carr will not stay on cases to do the right thing, rather than to withdraw to permit a handpicked out-of-the county retired White judge to come in to Cleveland to sentence Blacks in a prejudicial manner for political and other reasons when they get convicted, then why elect judges. In other situations like in Berea, Ohio these visiting retired judges are fixing cases, data show, and with protection by the Old Black Political Guard of Cleveland, Ohio and the prior leadership team of the Cleveland NAACP).  

Community activists urge the state legislature to pass House Bill 216, which was pushed by Imperial Women and is sponsored by state Rep. Bill Patmon (D-10). If passed into law, HB216 requires that Ohio trial court judges in multi-judge courts are assigned and reassigned to civil and criminal cases at random.

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
