JUDGE ALAN SCHEINKMAN IS A FRAUD



CORRUPT ADMINISTRATIVE
JUDGE ALAN SCHEINKMAN
We would like to welcome our readers back to part 2 of our series on Alan.  Alan has no respect for taxpayers.  Alan could care less if you were able to put food on your table or if you had a roof over your head.  Alan doesn’t understand because Alan is not like us, the 99%.  Alan is part of an elitist group of folks whose only mission is to further the corruption, fraud, and abuse in the New York State Unified Court System. 

As reported earlier, Alan was and still is a very lazy man.  Lazy people who are in power are afforded the luxury of using our tax dollars to finance their lavish lifestyles.  The Alan being referred to is Alan Scheinkman, Administrative Judge for the 9th judicial district, long said to be the most corrupt judicial district in the State of New York. 

While families were starving and getting kicked out of their homes via foreclosure (cases that pass through Scheinkman’s court), Alan went on a multi-million dollar taxpayer funded shopping spree.  Alan decided to hire all of his friends and build a system that would allow him to spend more time on the golf course and on his sailboat.

Alan hired Nancy Mangold who is currently making $144,574 per year and her title as listed on the New York State Unified Court Website is “District Executive”.  Just what exactly is a “District Executive”?   

According to SeeThroughNY, Mangold’s job is listed as “Ast Dep Chf Admn” This does not look anything like the title given to her by Alan.  Alan changed Mangold’s job description because the position as listed on SeeThroughNY, is a civil service position. What does that exactly mean? According to NYS Civil Service law, Nancy Mangold’s should have taken a competitive examination that was advertised to the public. 

Mount Vernon Exposed was told by a source that Hon. A. Gail Prudenti’s office is directly handling matters pertaining to an investigation in the 9th Judicial District. Hon. A. Gail Prudenti is the Chief Administrative Judge for New York State and is responsible for running the New York State Unified Court System. 

The issue of Alan’s mental fitness again comes into play.  It was earlier reported that Alan had a mental breakdown while he was Westchester County Attorney.  Is Alan mentally fit to be on the bench?  We must not take lightly that Alan may have a mental illness.  The thoughts that go on in Alan’s head affects well over a million people in the counties of Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Dutchess, and Orange counties.  Would a truly sane person behave as Alan has publicly displayed? In our previous issue we broke the exclusive news that Alan put his hand up his wife Faith Miller’s crotch in pubic while in the presence of other sitting Supreme Court and County Court Judges. 

While unconfirmed until Freedom of Information Requests are fulfilled, it has been said that Nancy Mangold went from a grade 12 to a grade 29 overnight and received a raise of tens of thousands of dollars as part of this multi-million taxpayer funded shopping spree.  Nancy Mangold hired her son who also went up the ranks pretty quickly.  J Marshall Mangold in 2008,  was a Sr Court Office Keyboard making $33,079.  Today,  J Marshall Mangold is a court attorney making $64, 834.  It would not be complete without Jennifer Jaffe, Nancy Mangold’s daughter in-law who is Alan’s principal secretary.  Does this reek of corruption and nepotism?

By keeping a close knit family, the corruption is able to continue.  Alan is not really running the courts because he is never there.  Jennifer Jaffe covers for Alan by deflecting calls of extreme importance to her mother in law who then deals with the situation.  All legal work is done by James Garfein, Alan’s top tiger in the office.  It was told to Mount Vernon Exposed that a majority of the judges in the 9th Judicial District are not happy because they are forced to deal with Nancy Mangold who is in her position illegally because a test was never called for. Nancy Mangold was only legally allowed to serve in her position for 9 months without taking a test.  It was reported that several court employees in Alan’s building are not happy with Nancy Mangold who is often referred to as the “Black Widow”. 

Sources have told Mount Vernon Exposed that Jennifer S Jaffe and Nancy Mangold’s son are married.  Is this a conflict of interest? Jennifer S. Jaffe makes $59, 183 per year.   Nancy Mangold also has quite an ambitious agenda.  Sources have told Mount Vernon Exposed that Nancy Mangold wants her son to become a Judge and take Alan’s position as Administrative Judge for the 9th Judicial District. 

We encourage you to look at the video attached to this article and to follow our video series of “Judicial Review”.    To be continued>>>>>

THREE BLIND MICE ON CITY COUNCIL VOTE TO SQUANDER AWAY CITY PROPERTY FOR $11K TO FELLOW CRONY; CONFLICT OF INTEREST BETWEEN BUYER AND CITY ASSESSOR

COUNCILMAN YUHANNA EDWARDS
COUNCILWOMAN DIANE MUNRO-MORRIS
COUNCILMAN STEVEN HORTON


On Wednesday, February 9th, 2011 the Mount Vernon City Council voted 3-1 to sell a property owned by the City of Mount Vernon to the Mount Vernon Chamber of Commerce for a measly $11K.  Councilwoman Roberta Apuzzo voted no and Council President Karen Watts abstained from voting.  Council President Watts and Councilwoman Apuzzo appear to be the only persons on the council with a conscience at this time.
Information was also presented to the council that every meeting held by the Real Estate Committee was an illegal meeting and in violation of NYS Public Officers law.  Mount Vernon Exposed Publisher vowed to take legal against the City of Mount Vernon for the blatant violations of law.  The meetings of the real estate committee were not posted on the City of Mount Vernon’s website as required by law.

§104. Public notice.

1. Public notice of the time and place of a meeting scheduled at least one week prior thereto shall be given to the news media and shall be conspicuously posted in one or more designated public locations at least seventy-two hours before such meeting.
2. Public notice of the time and place of every other meeting shall be given, to the extent practicable, to the news media and shall be conspicuously posted in one or more designated public locations at a reasonable time prior thereto.
3. The public notice provided for by this section shall not be construed to require publication as a legal notice.
4. If videoconferencing is used to conduct a meeting, the public notice for the meeting shall inform the public that videoconferencing will be used, identify the locations for the meeting, and state that the public has the right to attend the meeting at any of the locations. 

5. When a public body has the ability to do so, notice of the time and place of a meeting given in accordance with subdivision one or two of this section, shall also be conspicuously posted on the public body's internet website
The City of Mount Vernon was forewarned by a NYS Supreme Court Justice about posting notices of meeting on an ad-hoc basis.  City Clerk George Brown said on the record that he did not post meetings to the City website.  George Brown also refused to give the packet reviewed by the City Council to Mount Vernon Exposed™®.  Clerk George Brown said that the information was confidential.  However, a Good Samaritan in City Hall provided Mount Vernon Exposed™® with the necessary documents to keep city residents informed of the doings in City Hall.
Information was presented to the City Council that a letter was sent to the United States Attorneys’ office demanding an investigation into the President of the Chamber of Commerce and the Assessor of Mount Vernon.  Information has surfaced that the President of the Chamber of Commerce is business partners with the Assessor in Mount Vernon who is frequently called a crook by many City of Mount Vernon residents.  Many details about the letter provided to the United States Attorney’s will not be provided to the public to prevent the obstruction of any pending investigation.  

The three blind mice (Councilpersons’ Edwards, Horton, and Munro-Morris) voted to continue corruption in the City of Mount Vernon.  To be continued………

MOUNT VERNON EXPOSED READER DEDICATES POEM TO CORRUPT WESTCHESTER COUNTY FAMILY COURT JUDGE KATHIE DAVIDSON

Corrupt Family Court Judge Kathie Davidson


Steve Sacco, Victim of Injustice and Corruption by Judge Kathie Davidson and Judge Nilda Morales Horowitz

Kathie E. Davidson is an administrative Judge NYS Family Court, White Plains, New York 10601
“It’s Not Justice in These Courts, It’s “Just Us”   Poetic Rhyme and Lyrics by Steve Sacco


Once upon a time awoke from a dream a dame who thought she was so fine
Mommy and Daddy saying, girl you be one of them lawyers and you’ll have a grand ole time!
Packing up to law school this young lass went, liken contracts, motions, torts and a myriad of events
Never think’ in someday soon Kathie E. would be maligning
All us cats who don’t settle in her court, she’s bound to be haranguing

Graduation Day came and it was a blast
Parties, guy’s, dancing and confetti, two years went so fast
So long Jurist Prudence facility and please pass no more gas
Look out now world I gotta get a good job and hope that it will last

I hear the County Attorney’s Office is a hiring it’s staff
So I better get off my ruffled duff and hope they don’t give a polygraph 
A cushy job and those white flunkies will beckon to my call
If not I’ll grab em by their throat, maybe then they’ll follow my protocol
I’ll learn the ropes and rituals from those who ran before
Now it ‘my turn to be elected and I must walk through that dark door  
Power, connections, and politics, I’ve such a happy grin
Even my disciples with all our entitlements think I’m a heroine

Our exclusive club here is cozy and phat, we own this show, do ‘in tricks every day if the public only know
We’re your shielded Judges, assigned lawyers, clerks, security, cps and quack doctors although
We can’t be sued by anyone so corrupt ‘in we must go
One hand washes the other here, its lunch time tally-ho
Fix it our way like Burger King is our only motto
And you ain’t do ‘in noth’in about it! We mock, ho ho, so forget about your rights they just flew out the window

The day you find justice here will be a cold day in hell, we fell The U.S. Constitution can’t you tell
Forget the oath of office, due process, the rule of law
Ha Ha to our founding Fathers’, truth and justice we deplore
Even though on that big black Bible we placed our hand and swore

Neva Think’ I’d ever sell my soul to Beelzebub, now I go
Ruin ‘in good father’s families, coerced children and the Spanish you know
Mommy’s falsities in the petition she withdrew when taking “the stand”
I like your malicious conduct Mrs. Heather Sacco, don’t worry the outcomes in my hand!
Violent live-in boyfriend, guns and beating up his wife
Assaulting his mother and four others Henry Camardella pulled the bloodied knife
                                                                              
I’m The Queen of Sheba my eyes are veiled from the truth
I’m above the law, making back door deals, can’t you see I’m living proof
And “the Child’s best interests,” oh no, in my mind that’s just a goof
Tampering with evidence, changing the record and ex parte affairs its part of a spoof
Attorney’s Cambariere, Guttridge, Humphrey, law guardian Kolnik, cps Jamala Smith are under my roof

The county quack physician  Dr. Ruth Cohen’s falsified reports
Along with all hearsay statements are entered into evidence in these horrendous courts  
How else could we find Mr. Sacco guilty when we have no proof
Mr. and Mrs. Public don’t come in hea looking for justice; we’ll put you through the roof

Innumerable “procedural errors” on purpose were produced
Muzzling any arguments so Mr. Sacco’s retained attorneys couldn’t be used
Denying all their motions, evidence and dragging the trial out four years
My friends Cambararie, Guttridge, Humphrey, Kolnik, cps Jamela Smith I allowed ramble on like auctioneers

I ended the trial abruptly, Sacco’s witnesses on the stand
I couldn’t hear any more of their testimony; they made his fatherhood seem so grand
When it came to giving him his last rights I figured I’d drowned him in sinking sand
Then I grabbed Assigned Attorney Daniel Pagano in the hall to take Mr. Sacco by the hand

Not giving him time to get familiar with the case
I was sure to have an outcome that I thought no one could trace
Do I have to beat it into you? Can’t you see by now, I’m a total disgrace!

But I’m not done yet with my dirty tricks
When Pagano filed the Appeal papers in the clerk’s office downstairs it took its licks
We lost the papers don’t you see, this “parental alienation” thing feels good to me.
So now, Mr. Sacco, what do you think?
 I kidnapped your kid and gave him to a fink!
Violent Henry Camardella to take your place
I know you told me in open court, you’d sue me to my face!!!

Oh, and one more thing I failed to mention,
Did I tell you,  I’m on the board of the Westchester County Domestic Violence Convention!!!

So, that’s the story of your family court
And it won’t be over till we retort and put behind bars
 Those who take what’s ours
So our children can dance in the sun and live out the legacy we’ve begun
                                                                                                                   
                                                                                                      
You can email Mr. Sacco at sssteve318@gmail.com for further information and to join the fight to expose the corruption and brutality in the Family Courts in Westchester County, New York 10601

CORRUPT FAMILY COURT JUDGE KATHIE DAVIDSON TO BE HONORED AT BLACK HISTORY MONTH EVENT; MOTHER OF MURDER SUSPECT HAS DIRECT TIES WITH JUDGE DAVIDSON

Corrupt Westchester Family Court Judge Kathie Davidson



Mount Vernon Exposed™® has learned that a complaint has been filed with the commission on judicial conduct against Westchester County Supervising Judge Kathie Davidson for conduct on and off the bench that led to the death of a 2 year old New Rochelle infant.  

It appears from recent news reports that Westchester County Family Court Judge Kathie Davidson has followed in the footsteps of her colleague, Judge Horowitz.  Judge Horowitz rose to fame when she was sanctioned in 2005 when she tried to get her friends favorable outcomes on cases that were presently before other Judges in Westchester County Family Court.  

Now, also like her counterpart Judge Horowitz, who was promoted to Acting Supreme Court after her act of corruption, Judge Kathie Davidson is be honored on February 16 at Westchester Community College, Academic Arts Building Theater in Valhalla, NY. The program is free and will run from 6-9 p.m.
The following awards will be presented:
  • “The Betty Shabazz Award” - Honorable Kathie Davidson, a supervising Family Court Judge.
  • The Madame C. J. Walker Award” - Wiley Harrison, a Certified Public Accountant and Businessman.
  • “The Whitney Young Award” - Pennye Nash, a Health and Human Service Professional
Mount Vernon Exposed™® has received many calls in recent weeks regarding unethical conduct on the part of Judge Kathie Davidson.  Judge Davidson is the long time girlfriend of embattled City of Mount Vernon Mayor Clinton Young and is frequently seen attending events in and around the City of Mount Vernon in support of her beau.  

Many people question the intellect and reason Judge Davidson was promoted so quickly to Supervising Judge for Family Court 9th Judicial District.  Recent news articles describe Judge Davidson as being political savvy.  Mount Vernon Exposed™® has also received credible information including an email from someone claiming to be a neighbor of Judge Davidson suggesting that she slept her way to the top.  

In the email, the neighbor wrote that Judge Davidson slept with Westchester County Chairman Reginald LaFayette to get the nomination for Westchester County Family Court.  Mount Vernon Exposed™® has since spoken with Chairman LaFayette and he said those allegations were not true.

But since Mount Vernon Exposed™® ran an earlier article about Judge Davidson more information about her past has come to light.  Sources told Mount Vernon Exposed the Judge Davidson was also allegedly involved in an affair with then Supervising Judge on the 9th Judicial District Francis Nicolai.  Judge Nicolai appears to be quite the playboy as it has also been confirmed that he and Westchester County District Attorney Janet DiFiore travelled to Italy together quite possibly courtesy of Westchester County taxpayers.  Judge Davidson and Janet DiFiore are very close friends.  

Judge Davidson as told by court staff and court officers does not appear to be a very competent Judge and comes from the same political camp as two other Judges whose inept thinking has led to the deaths of other children.

Judge Horowitz was the Judge behind the murder of the 9 year old girl murdered in Mount Vernon by her father.  Judge Horowitz issued an order of protection that didn’t immediately vacate her ex-husband even the wife complained on several occasions about death threats she received from her ex-husband.
Information has also surfaced that the mother of Richard Leak, the individual charged in the killing of his 2 year old son is politically connected to the Democrats in New Rochelle.  Please check out the following blog from New Rochelle.

RACIAL DESCRIMINATION IS ALIVE AND WELL IN THE WESTCHESTER COUNTY COURTS: CORRUPT JUDGES SCHIENKMAN AND DAVIDSON SHOW FAVORITISM TO RACIST WHITE JUDGE

 Embattled Supervising Family Court Judge Kathy Davidson

Corrupt 9th Judicial District Administrative Judge Alan D. Scheinkman
(The ringleader)

Racist Family Court Judge Elect Michelle Shauer



It has come to the attention of Mount Vernon Exposed®™ that racist tactics similar to those used by the Klu Klux Klan are being used by Administrative Judge of the Ninth Judicial district, Alan Scheinkman and Kathie Davidson, Administrative Judge for Family Court, Ninth Judicial district.  

Based upon information and belief, Family Court Judge elect, Michelle Schauer was assigned to Yonkers Family Court beginning in January 2011.  According to sources close to Scheinkman and Schauer, Schauer became extremely angered about the decision to place her in Yonkers.  Mount Vernon Exposed®™ has heard allegations that Michelle Schauer, as Family Court Referee, removed Latino children from their parents simply because the parents did not speak English.  

The Journal News recently covered the horrendous conditions and severe overcrowding in the Yonkers Family Court.  Family Court Judge elect Michelle Schauer decided to take matters into her own hands.  Judge Shauer went out on her own and purchased an asbestos and mold kit.  Judge Schauer then went to the Yonkers Family Court facility on South Broadway and took air samples.  The air samples tested positive for asbestos and mold.

Mount Vernon Exposed investigated Judge-elect Schauer's allegations and found them to be credible.   In a report released by the NYS Office of Court Facilities numerous hazardous conditions were found to exist at the Yonkers Family Court facility.  Some of these dangers include inadequate heating, air conditioning, and ventilation.  Numerous safety issues were also found to exist.  A copy of the report can be found below this story.
It is then alleged that Judge Shauer put her findings in writing to Judge Scheinkman and Judge Davidson informing them that she will not be taking the bench there come January 2011.  According to the source, Judge Shauer described the Yonkers Family Court facility as “uninhabitable”.   Judge Davidson and Judge Scheinkman have been scrambling to find a home for Judge Shauer.  According to the source, Judge Shauer has been getting preferential treatment because she is white.  Judge Malone, who also sits in Yonkers and is black, has been ignored for years and her alleged complaints have fallen on deaf ears. 

Stay tuned for more coverage on this situation………..

ASSEMBLYMAN GARY PRETLOW AND WESTCHESTER ELECTION COMMISSIONER REGGIE LAFAYETTE CONSPIRE TO DEFRAUD VOTERS




Corrupt Election Commissioner Reggie LaFayette pictured with his Executive Assistant Tajian Jones (co-conspirator) and Lila Kirton (Governor Patterson's mistress)

Embattled Assemblyman J. Gary Pretlow


Assemblyman Pretlow's car illegally parked in Board of Elections parking lot




On Friday, July 16th, 2010 Mount Vernon Exposed publisher Samuel L. Rivers made a visit to the Westchester County Board of Elections to inspect nominating petitions filed by his opponent for 87th Assembly, J. Gary Pretlow.  Rivers was surprised when he walked into the Board of Elections and saw Assemblyman J. Gary Pretlow standing around staring into space.  Pretlow began to perspire profusely when he saw his opponent Samuel L. Rivers
.
Rivers politely greeted Pretlow, who did not look happy to see Rivers.  Rivers asked Pretlow was he there to challenge Rivers’ petitions.  Pretlow responded, “I am not challenging anything”.  Pretlow began to pace back and forth with a look of defeat and nervousness on his face.  Pretlow then went outside and was chatting with an unidentified woman.  Disgraced Election Commissioner Reggie LaFayette then went outside and spoke with Pretlow with his hand covering his mouth, an act commonly seen in “Gangster” movies. Persons that normally emulate this behavior are usually involved in illegal behavior.

After a few minutes, Pretlow then entered a restricted area in the Westchester County Board of Elections, following Reggie LaFayette into LaFayette's office. As of official closing time at 5:00 P.M., Pretlow remained in Reggie LaFayette's office.    
As to why Pretlow was in White Plains mingling with LaFayette instead of being in Albany to fix the financial mess that he was a part of for the last 18 years in unknown.  Sources have told Mount Vernon Exposed that Commissioner LaFayette made a deal with Pretlow to use Board of Election workers and resources at taxpayers’ expense to challenge the nominating petitions of Samuel L. Rivers.  It is not normal for a candidate to have secret backroom deals with an Election Commissioner to go over petitions, a benefit not afforded to Samuel L. Rivers or any other candidate. 

Sources have also confirmed that LaFayette is conspiring to commit election fraud and theft of services with Tajian Jones, Lafayette’s high paid Executive assistant who is the same person who created Pretlow’s petition and who also serves as the secretary of the Westchester County Democratic Committee.  “Pretlow, Reggie, and Tajian in a room together is bad for the people of Mount Vernon, the people of Westchester County, and bad for the people of New York State, said Rivers.” “It is not fair and a clear conflict of interest that Reggie can use Board of Election workers and resources paid for by Westchester County taxpayers to challenge my petitions” Rivers added. 

Rivers told Mount Vernon Exposed™® that he is also calling for a Federal Investigation into years of voter fraud, intimidation, coercion, bribery, and extortion by LaFayette and others by the United States Department of Justice.  “I will not back down from Lafayette, Pretlow, and others and I will not be intimidated by them either.  “Voters are fed up with the corruption in Westchester politics and need a choice in September.  “I am that choice” 

Westchester taxpayers can come to the conclusion that LaFayette is retaliating against Rivers because of the recent explosive allegations released by Rivers accusing LaFayette of giving judicial nominations in exchange for sexual favors.

Pretlow hasn’t had a viable challenger in 18 years and now he is running for the hills.  Voters must question the integrity of Pretlow.  Why is Assemblyman Pretlow fighting so hard to keep his taxpayer funded $87,000 a year job?  Pretlow is also the Chairman of the Wages and Bets Committee for the NYS Assembly.  For years voters have long suspected Assemblyman Pretlow of taking bribes and kickbacks from casino’s, racetracks, and special interest groups.  These three categories are the sources of Pretlow’s campaign contributions.

WESTCHESTER DEM LEADER CONTINUES TO ENDORSE FAILURES FOR PUBLIC OFFICE; NYS ASSEMBLY J. GARY PRETLOW THREATENS OPPONENT



On Sunday, July 3rd, 2010, Mount Vernon Exposed™® crossed paths with Westchester County Democratic Chairman Reginald LaFayette, the first encounter since Mount Vernon Exposed™® published an article about alleged drug abuse by LaFayette, Sha-Kee Williams, and Westchester County Family Court Judge Nilda Morales Horowitz.

Last month, an anonymous e-mail was sent to Mount Vernon Exposed™® from a person claiming to be a New Rochelle Democratic district leader.  The email stated that the district leader overheard New Rochelle Dem Chair Arnold Klugman discuss Mr. Lafayette’s abuse of illegal narcotics, specifically cocaine.  The district leader also overheard Klugman state that Lafayette’s girlfriend Sha-Kee Williams also abused cocaine.

Mr. Lafayette was very angry and belligerent, behavior that is not normal for a person that is a public servant, when approached by Mount Vernon Exposed publisher Samuel L. Rivers.  “I am not shaking the hand of someone that said I use cocaine” said LaFayette.  Mr. Rivers simply told LaFayette that he was not the author of the email or the allegations and simply is reporting on matters on public concern.  New York State Assemblyman J. Gary Pretlow was also in attendance during the encounter with Mr. LaFayette.  Mr. Pretlow also became belligerent when Mr. Rivers was speaking to Mr. LaFayette.  “What if someone writes a story and said that you are a child molester?” asked LaFayette.  Mr. Rivers told LaFayette, “this is a free country and you are free to write and say what you want but make sure it is true and if you say or write something that is not true, then you will be sued without hesitation. 

Mr.  Pretlow then chimed in and said to Mr.  Rivers “you are a fucking moron” and proceeded to issue a statement that many would perceive to be a threat.  Mr. Pretlow then said, “You better not write anything about me that isn’t true because I am not as nice as Reggie”.  What exactly did Mr. Pretlow mean by his comments?  Was he threatening bodily harm to Mr. Rivers?  Was he suggesting that he would conspire with Mr. LaFayette to sabotage the election and Mr. Rivers campaign against Mr. Pretlow? It is apparent that Mr. Pretlow is now engaging in the same behavior and practices that disgraced former Mayoral Aide John Boykin was heard speaking about during the famous tape recorded conversation. 

Mr. LaFayette denied that he abuses or has abused illegal narcotics.  However, Mr. Lafayette did not deny that he slept with Westchester Family Court Judge Kathie Davidson and Westchester County Family Court Judge Nilda Morales Horowitz in exchange for the Democratic nomination.  Judge Kathie Davidson has made headlines recently due to her involvement with Mayor Clinton Young.  Sources have confirmed that Mayor Young was using a taxpayer funded bodyguard, vehicle, and gas to be dropped off at Kathie Davidson’s house at all hours of the night.  Sources have also confirmed that Judge Davidson and Mayor Young have been romantically involved for several years.  Perhaps Judge Davidson will become the first lady of Mount Vernon.   Mr. LaFayette also did not deny other allegations set forth in the email such as taking payments from Cappelli for facilitating meetings with former New Rochelle Mayor Tim Idoni and other New Rochelle elected officials.  So we must assume these serious allegations to be true.

Mr. LaFayette also said that Mount Vernon Exposed™® has ruined the reputation of his girlfriend, Sha-Kee Williams.  The district leader from New Rochelle said that Sha-Kee Williams engaged in promiscuous activity with her current boss, Westchester County Court Judge James Hubert.  Hubert was endorsed and wholeheartedly supported by LaFayette last during his bid to be elected to New York State Supreme Court.  Hubert failed to get elected to New York State Supreme Court. 

Hubert is not the only failure supported by LaFayette.  LaFayette continues to support Judge Nilda Morales Horowitz.  Judge Horowitz has been publicly censured by New York State’s highest court for attempting on six different occasions to fix cases for her friends that were at that time before other justices of the Westchester Family Court.  Hal Greenwald is another failure supported by Mr. LaFayette. Hal Greenwald is quite the political prostitute and is desperate for his chance to take a sip from the public water fountain.  Greenwald has been mentored by Ken Jenkins, the disgraced Chairman of the Westchester County Legislators recently accused of voter fraud.  It is alleged that Jenkins does not live in the district that he represents. If Greenwald takes his advice from Ken Jenkins, it would not be hard to figure out what kind of Judge he would be.

Hal Greenwald has been unsuccessfully running for office for almost a decade.  In 2003, Hal Greenwald unsuccessfully ran for County Legislator and in 2007 was the Yonkers Democratic Party’s nominee for Westchester County Family Court.  Greenwald failed to win the Family Court election.  It was also reported to Mount Vernon Exposed by Mr. LaFayette that Greenwald also ran unsuccessfully for Yonkers City Council and NYS Assembly.  Mr. LaFayette also said that this is the first time Hal Greenwald is running for office countywide.  Mr. Lafayette once again proves to be a liar and someone that cannot be trusted. 
Mount Vernon Exposed™® received notification that Mr. LaFayette has encountered several people that are outraged that the Westchester County Democratic Executive Committee did not endorse Judge Bill Edwards for one of the four judicial seats.  According to a source, Layette said that he couldn’t sell Judge Edwards throughout Westchester County because of his wife Helena R. Edwards’ blog. www.straighttalkinmountvernon.typepad.com.  

Mr. Lafayette also didn’t mention that the Ivy League educated Judge Edwards has had several decisions published in New York Law Journal. Supervising Judge Kathie Davidson had never had a decision published in New York Law Journal. No other candidate currently seeking to be elected to Westchester County Family Court has had a decision published in the New York Law Journal.  Mount Vernon Exposed™® could not find any decisions published by Judge Nilda Morales Horowitz, however inserting her name into the Google search did bring up her horrendous record and admonishment. Clearly, the nomination is not about education, integrity, and competence.

So just what does it take to receive a Democratic Judicial nomination?  Is one required to offer sex or sexual acts to party bosses?  Are you required to share a passion of illegal narcotics abuse? Or are you required to pay 10% percent to party chairs? We may never know the answer to this question, but one this is for sure, we know that nominations are not based on qualifications and competence but based solely on politics and those that know how to drop it like it’s hot. 

Mount Vernon Exposed™®  will continue to educate the public on this year’s judicial races and has taken the quest for insight into these candidates into the community.  Mount Vernon Exposed™® spoke with several attorneys about Judge Davidson, Judge Horowitz, Judge David Klein, and Judge Bill Edwards, Patricia O’ Callaghan, Michelle Shauer, and Hal Greenwald.  At a later date and time, Mount Vernon Exposed™® will release our endorsements for Westchester Family Court, Westchester County Court and all political races that affect the City of Mount Vernon.  Judicial candidates can request a questionnaire by emailing mountvernonexposed@gmail.com.

Information that will researched and released to the public includes the following.
