Ernest Smith’s testimony was a crime confession Brandon King asked him not to share

CLEVELAND, OH – Ernest Lamont Smith, 49, doesn’t know how much of a loser he portrayed himself as when he told jurors in his criminal trial that he made his $4500 a year council salary his full-time source of income for four years.  That’s $86.53 a week plus an open invitation to join Mayor Brandon King and Michael Smedley at the “all you can steal” buffet. Smith didn’t have a job when King appointed him along with Ricky Pitts, illegally, to serve on the city council in 2017.   To protect his investment in his illegal appointees, the racketeering-minded mayor threatened…

Mayor Bibb flim-flams taxpayers with a video selfie that delivered a crazed “line of duty” ruling in city employee Shane Bartek’s off work death

CLEVELAND, OH – The one municipal officer missing from Mayor Justin Bibb’s announcement of his administration’s “line of determination” ruling about the death of Shane Bartek was Director of Law Mark Griffin.  The “office” of the “director of law” was referenced as having provided an opinion.  That officer of the municipal corporation was not present to cite the specific laws which authorized Bibb to agree that Bartek’s death was “in the line of duty.”   The Bibb administration “outside the law” ruling came two days after Cleveland Police Patrolmens Association president and patrol officer Jeffrey Follmer expressed his “outrage” over a…

Gowdy encourages Americans stopped, arrested and pursued by uncertified East Cleveland cops to use council’s “impersonation” ordinance to file criminal charges against them with Judge Dawson

Attorney Heather McCollough held herself out as East Cleveland's assistant director of law when former Ward 2 Councilor and President Juanita Gowdy introduced legislation demanding that peace officer credentials be given to defendants and Judge William Dawson.

CLEVELAND, OH – People who are detained, pursued, ticketed or arrested by individuals discharging police duties in East Cleveland should be using Ordinance Number 525.03 Council Vice President Juanita Gowdy, Councilman Nathaniel Martin and Council President Korean Stevenson enacted to validate their credentials.   State laws instruct police that if their appointing authority hasn’t ensured they’ve received state approved retraining, annually, by December 15th; they are to “cease discharging the duties of a law enforcement officer and wearing a weapon” on December 31st.

Sources say Williams is close to resigning now that Jackson’s decided not to seek a 5th term as Cleveland’s mayor and he’s got no political horse to ride for another four

CLEVELAND, OH – Reliable sources say Cleveland police chief Calvin Williams knows he has no law enforcement future with mayoral contenders like Zack Reed so he’s planning to announce, soon, that he’s leaving.  Reed in 2017 wanted to elevate Williams to director of public safety had he defeated Jackson for mayor that year.  Should voters send him to city hall in 2022 Reed wants him gone.  Williams has too much baggage associated with his management of the Cleveland Division of Police and is now presiding over a town faced with record breaking homicides and unsolved crime statistics for its 378,000…

Juanita Gowdy’s running for East Cleveland mayor because voters are disgusted with Richmond Heights resident Brandon King’s lying and stealing

Attorney Heather McCollough held herself out as East Cleveland's assistant director of law when former Ward 2 Councilor and President Juanita Gowdy introduced legislation demanding that peace officer credentials be given to defendants and Judge William Dawson.

CLEVELAND, OH – Council Vice President and East Cleveland Sunrise publisher Juanita Gowdy is counting on the truth that the voters of East Cleveland know more than a few things about Mayor Brandon King that disgusts them as she challenges him for the “chief law enforcement officer”s job he holds illegally as a Richmond Heights resident.  Elected officials under Ohio laws must be residents of the community they’re elected to serve. For the past nearly two years, Gowdy and East Cleveland Sunrise co-publisher Justyn Anderson have been distributing their 5000 circulation newspaper to every household, door-to-door, providing information-starved voters and…
