By FOX 8 News CLEVELAND – People remain on edge after three women were found  murdered and another brutally attacked  along a stretch of East 93rd Street in southeast Cleveland. “All within one mile of each other,” Cleveland City Council member Zack Reed said at a safety forum Tuesday evening. Reed and other city leaders, along with police, ministers and community activists told a room full of concerned residents they need the public’s help to get the attackers off the street. “If you don’t share the information, then our investigations stall sometimes,” Fourth District Police Commander Deon McCaulley said. Jamella Hasan, 37, was found stabbed 15 times near East 93rd Street and Manor on December 17. “The person that did this to her is still running the streets of our city,” Reed said. Jasmine Trotter, 20, was found murdered in an abandoned home on East 93rd Street on March 24. She was raped and badly beaten. A few days later Christine Malone, 45, was found beaten a

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
