Cleveland Municipal Clerk of Court Earle B. Turner Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Kathleen Ann Keough From the Metro Desk of the DeterminerWeekly.Com and the Kathy Wray Coleman Online News Blog and Media Network Cleveland Municipal Clerk of Court Earle B. Turner has agreed, with conditions, to change an erroneous case docket date that falsely and fraudulently denotes that a document filed on May 22, 2009 was filed on May 26, 2009 regarding a criminal matter before Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Kathleen Ann Keough. The judge presided over what community activists are calling a malicious prosecution of local Black journalist Kathy Wray Coleman and is accused of directing Turner and his staff to falsify the case docket so that the document would be seen as filed untimely relative to any appeal by Coleman. Following a two day trial held last May before Keough, a jury found Coleman not guilty of misdemeanor charges of aggravated disorderly conduct, making false alarms, and obstruction of

Community Activist Art McKoy By Kathy Wray Coleman, Editor of the DeterminerWeekly.Com and the Kathy Wray Coleman Online News Blog and Media Network Cleveland area community members and grassroots factions such as the People's Forum, the Carl Stokes Brigade, the Imperial Women, the Oppressed People's Nation and the Lucasville Uprising Freedom Network will rally on June 19 at 5 pm at Black on Black Crime Inc's headquarters at McCall's at 14660 Euclid Ave in East Cleveland to denounce what some community activists say is the malicious prosecution by the State of Ohio of respected longtime community activist Art McKoy. The date is consequential because it is the anniversary of "Junteenth," an annual recognition of the day in 1865 in which slaves on a plantation in Texas were told that they were free in accordance with a proclamation from then U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, though most other slaves had been freed two years earlier in 1863 when Lincoln signed the

Cleveland Municipal Clerk of Court Earle B. Turner Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Kathleen Ann Keough From the Metro Desk of the DeterminerWeekly.Com and the Kathy Wray Coleman Online News Blog and Media Network Cleveland Municipal Clerk of Court Earle B. Turner has corrected a false and defamatory notation on the website case docket of Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Kathleen Ann Keough that says that African-American Journalist Kathy Wray Coleman was convicted of aggravated disorderly conduct, though Coleman has no criminal record and has never been convicted of a crime. Coleman said that the illegal notation, which she views as felony activity of tampering with a public record, was removed by Turner's Chief of Staff, Ron Tabor, on Friday, after Coleman said she would sue and contact the press. Keough is allegedly angry over the correction where she has written an entry on the case docket that falsified data as to the filings of documents on Coleman's behalf should not be co

"Earle B. Turner is in my opinion a lazy and corrupt Cleveland Municipal Clerk of Court who routinely has his e
