Cleveland City Councilman Arrested

 


Last month a Cleveland City Councilman was arrested for suspicion of drunk driving after he was caught speeding.  Later he entered a plea of not guilty.  There are reports his measured blood alcohol level was only 0.056, which is below the 0.08 legal limit.  The councilman suggested it was just the case of a guy having a drink while watching a football game.  You can catch him speaking about the incident here

An interesting situation developed, which was the recusal of Judge Angela Stokes and the other Cleveland Municipal Court judges.  Since the Cleveland City Council controls the court budget, a conflict of interest exists.  See here.  What now?
