Malicious attorney Heather McCollough took council clerk’s criminal and sex abuse complaints, and the next day helped the accused councilor retaliate against her

CLEVELAND, OH – When East Cleveland’s Clerk of Council Stacey White filed a June 23, 2025 sexual harassment and a criminal complaint against Ward 2 Councilman Timothy Austin, she officially transmitted both documents to attorney Heather McCollough.  McCollough signed the documents as received. Since McCollough was usurping East Cleveland’s prosecutor’s office, the attorney should have opened an investigation into White’s allegations if she was pretending to hold the job lawfully.  What the malicious prosecuting attorney impersonator did was conspire with Austin to retaliate against White the next day.

CLEVELAND, OH – The growing suspicion that predominantly American Negro populated East Cleveland, Ohio is intentionally being destabilized for a takeover by ethnic cleansing minded Cuyahoga County players is becoming more confirmed with each fight Mayor Lateek Shabazz has to engage in to assume the mayor’s office.  His latest obstacle is a quo warranto mayoral usurper Sandra Morgan appears to have retained the Cuyahoga County Land Reutilization Commission’s (CCLRC) law firm to file on her behalf.  Roetzel and Andress.

Prosecutor’s office backs Sandra Morgan’s ridiculous claim that convicted ex-Mayor Brandon King will remain suspended until his appeal

Sandra Morgan added to an already messy public image of the city's officers when she chose to misinterpret a state law that told her to leave the mayor's office when Brandon King was convicted. She said the courts will decide but had filed no action, as a usurper, to keep an elected office she was trying to steal until the November 2025 election.

CLEVELAND, OH – In order to sell her creative lie that the office of East Cleveland’s mayor is not vacant, and that convicted ex-mayor Brandon L. King is still under suspension until his appeal rights are exhausted, mayor’s office usurper Sandra F. Morgan has to direct employees to place the convict back on the payroll of a city in fiscal emergency.  It’s the only way her lie will work. If the claims in the quo warranto Cuyahoga County Prosecuting Attorney Michael O’Malley filed against East Cleveland Mayor Lateek R. Shabazz for Morgan are to be believed, the private citizen usurping the…
