Quinlan’s running an OPOTA training records laundering operation out of the Attorney General’s office, and hiding uncertified cops from Ohio’s mayors, judges, prosecutors

CLEVELAND, OH — At precisely midnight on January 1, 2024, something extraordinarily criminal happened across the State of Ohio. One thousand and eighty-one police officers — men and women from 38 law enforcement agencies entrusted with the power to arrest, search, and use deadly force — ceased to exist as legal peace officers. They became private citizens impersonating law enforcement officers. Under Ohio law, a police officer’s authority is not a permanent appointment. It operates more like an annual driver’s license. It is a conditional privilege, renewed annually through mandatory training that is reported on computer systems owned by the…

Attorney Heather McCollough violated indemnification laws to defend dirty cops without seeking a resolution from East Cleveland city council

Sandra Morgan, unfortunately, aligned herself with the criminal element in East Cleveland city hall instead of the reformers who've fought for their removal. Heather McCollough is seeking a Cleveland municipal court judgeship as East Cleveland's fired ex-malicious prosecutor. Instead of advising Morgan not to use her for personal legal affairs, McCollough entrapped her into a public confession on WOIO that was noted by Ideastream's Matt Richmond.

CLEVELAND, OH – Attorney Heather McCollough could rightfully be nicknamed “Willa Mae Hemmons, Jr.” for the way she criminally engages in legal malpractice in the name of the municipal corporation of East Cleveland.  Instead of seeking a seat on the Cleveland Municipal Court, McCollough, like her “official document forging” mentor, Hemmons, should be facing criminal prosecution and an investigation by the Disciplinary Counsel of the Supreme Court of Ohio.  East Cleveland taxpayers have every right to demand that its elected officials file malpractice claims against each of the “sisters of legal chaos.” The May 22, 2025 “answer” McCollough filed with…

State investigating East Cleveland Mayor Brandon King and Phyllis Mosley’s violation of civil service laws in hiring and promoting police

EAST CLEVELAND, OH – According to indicted Mayor Brandon King’s personal attorney, Willa Mae Hemmons, acting chief of police Kenneth Lundy was hired on June 5, 2016 by recalled ex-Mayor Gary Norton without civil service testing as a BPO.  While there is no such job classification as a BPO, East Cleveland city council codified a non-classified Beat Patrol Commissioned Officer (BPCO) position in July 1998 that gave mayors the authority to hire them for six months to work on special police assignments. They earn no more than a 3rd grade patrol officer and must officially be “reappointed” by the mayor…

Mike Smedley goes into hiding after EJBNEWS exposes a video of him naming Cuyahoga county council woman Cheryl Stephens as his “Mike Riley” hookup

Two brains are not better than one when it comes to the combined minds of Mayor Brandon King and his off-the-books chief of staff, Michael Smedley. Latasha Williams represents an example of their best thinking; which is why East Cleveland taxpayers have a $60 million deficit to pay.

CLEVELAND, OH – The day after Christmas 2020, Michael Smedley went into hiding and stopped showing up for work at East Cleveland city hall … again.   Gary Norton had been indicted along with Vanessa Veals on December 14, 2020.  Twelve days later, the day after acknowledging the celebrated birth of Yeshua the Christ on December 25th,  I published a November 2018 audio recording of Smedley’s conversation with Ward 2 residents on my EJBNEWS website December 26th. Smedley’s recent disappearing act is the same as the behavior that drove him into hiding when he told residents of Ward 2 in East…

Endorsed by the Plain Dealer, Gary Norton and his police chief’s secretary got too power and money hungry with East Cleveland cash

The 2014 audit of the city of East Cleveland's finances reveals how Rick Case used car salesman Gary Norton and the police chief's ex-secretary, Vanessa Veals, mishandled payroll records for police whose time could not be verified as to the times they started or ended; or whether the overtime they were paid was authenticated.

CLEVELAND, OH – The benefit to being a Plain Dealer endorsed candidate for elected office is that the newspaper’s publisher and editors assign reporters to keep the politician’s image looking like the one their endorsement created and concealing their crimes.  Its editors don’t want the people to know they don’t know a damn thing about government and their endorsements should have been ignored. As many stories as this town’s reporters have “stolen” and continue to steal from my publications without attribution, they didn’t “steal” any of those I wrote clearly demonstrating that Gary Alexander Norton, Jr. is a criminal.  It’s…

Prosecutor leaked video I sent to FBI of McDonald asking for drugs the mayor is obstructing council from investigating

CLEVELAND, OH – A federal law I know is codified at 18 U.S.C. 4 instructs anyone with knowledge of a federal crime to report it to court of cognizable jurisdiction or a civil or military authority; or face up to three years in prison for “misprision of felony.”  So when I obtained a copy of the video last week of law enforcement officer impersonator Larry McDonald asking an OPOTA-certified law enforcement officer for some of the drugs he’d seized during an arrest I forwarded it to a Special Agent at the Federal Bureau of Investigtion (FBI) that handles public corruption.…
