Is Judge Bill Edwards The Next Trayvon Martin?
Today, my husband, Judge William Edwards was visited by three individuals: Ms. Jewell Williams, from the Public Safety Unit, Lt. Al Moscola, Public Judicial Threat Unit and Robert Piaza from the Inspector General’s Office. These three individuals came to interrogate better known as intimidate and harass my husband about an “alleged complaint that was filed.” The complaint, according to them states that my husband said “he would take his kids to an Island then return with a gun to shoot everyone,” and that my husband made anti-semitic remarks in public, i.e. “white, Jewish Judges.”
Now, all of this may sound amusing and even crazy, but we are not dealing with people who appear to be in their right minds. What is most interesting is that, these individuals cannot disclose the name or names of the individuals who made this absolutely false complaint because of “The Court Administration’s Policy.” I demand that these so-called investigators or henchmen identify the complainant. The public demands to know, so that we can bring the TRUTH out into the open.
This plot smells of something very insidious. Talk of a gun and shooting, I deem a threat to my husband and my family’s life. This appears to be some ploy to kill my husband under the guise that “the killer feels threatened.” We have seen this plot played out just recently with the killing of Trayvon Martin whereby Mr. Zimmerman supposedly felt that his life was being threatened, so he had to use deadly force on Trayvon Martin.
Readers of my blog have heard me make mention of corruption in the court system before. Today, I will delve into a bit of the harassment that my husband has been dealing with for a number of years within the Court System because he refuses to go along with the program. Back in 2009, some folks approached my husband, who had become the Senior Judge in the Mount Vernon City Court after Judge Brenda Dowery Rodriguez retired, and informed him about alleged corruption that was going on within the Mount Vernon Court. As a result of this, my husband issued a request to Chief Clerk, Lawrence (Larry) Darden to provide him with an Audit. This was reported to then Administrative Judge, Francois Nicolai, who instructed Mr. Darden, my husband and possible others that the Audit shouldn’t be completed. This Audit request caused Judge Nicolai to become frightened by my husband and there was a concerted effort to not put him in charge. Mr. Darden, on one occasion in a meeting, in the presence of attorneys, and other court personnel attempted to assault my husband. I am told by sources close to Mr. Darden that he felt that my husband was intending to “fire him.”
Mr. Darden had to be restrained. Mr. Darden was not arrested. There was no order of protection issued against him, although Mr. Darden had quite a history of violence against others that included Court Clerks, attorneys, and other personnel prior to this event. I am told that when similar situations occurred with white Judges, where they felt threatened by a potential assailant, the matter was handled totally different, but you must bear in mind, that my husband is an outsider, who wanted to investigate alleged corruption in the court and many higher than my husband were not happy. I am told that on previous occasions when Mr. Darden exhibited his violent behavior, he was treated with kid gloves and the harshest penalty that he suffered was an order to go and seek “Anger Management.”
Prior to this incident with Mr. Darden attempting to assault my husband, Mr. Darden, had participated in what he (Mr. Darden) believed at the time was a “cover-up on my husband’s behalf.” This potential cover-up, turned out to leave Mr. Darden and others with egg all over their faces. You see, my husband is a diabetic. As a diabetic, he has to manage his sugar intake. One morning, my husband went into work suffering from a stomach virus. Everything he ate was coming out from both outlets. Therefore, while on the bench, he felt a little woozy. He was taken into his chambers. While in his chambers, he asked to see Judge Tony Scarpino’s wife, Lee, who was at the time a Stenographer at the Mount Vernon Court. Lee knew of my husband’s illness and he wanted her to get him some orange juice to build up his sugar level. Mr. Darden and others prevented Lee from coming to my husband. They called me on my job and said they were taking my husband to the emergency room. My husband was speaking to me on the phone (speaker). He told me he just wanted to have Lee bring him orange juice, but they kept refusing to allow her to come to him. I advised them not to take him to the hospital. Instead of complying with my husband’s wishes, they physically restrained him in a chair.
There was a psychologist or psychiatrist, Dr. Epstein, who was convicted of Medicaid Fraud in Westchester who has since gone into hiding, who flashing a Mount Vernon Police Badge ordered Mr. Darden and others to take my husband to Lawrence Hospital. They drove him to Lawrence Hospital in a car despite protest from my husband. They didn’t call the ambulance and take him to Mount Vernon Hospital because it was revealed that they suspected my husband was “drunk on the bench” so they wanted to cover-up the action. When my husband got to the hospital, his sugar level was 32. My husband almost went into a diabetic coma as a result of these people’s actions. He had to remain overnight in the hospital. This shows that Mr. Darden has a history of cover-ups. If my husband was “drunk” then by that cover-up, he would have been inducted into the flock. But, it so happened that when they discovered that he was not drunk, but had a legitimate medical condition which was made worse by their actions, they were totally embarrassed and not happy.
Two years ago, during my husband’s Campaign for Family Court Judge, I reported a story about one of my husband’s opponents that was sanctioned for fixing cases. Mr. Darden and his puppet handlers decided that they would file ethics charges against my husband for guess what? Fixing Cases! Mr. Darden, who never served as a clerk in my husband’s courtroom, went through five years worth of my husband’s court cases and filed ethics charges claiming that my husband had fixed cases for people including Mount Vernon City Councilwoman, Karen Watts. It cost my husband $10,000.00 to hire an attorney to refute these charges, which were found to be unsubstantiated.
Before, he became aware of Mr. Darden’s ethics charges against him, my husband had requested an investigation of Mr. Darden’s attempted assault. Several attorneys that were present at the time of the event testified. However, my husband was never given any information as to the outcome of this investigation and to our knowledge Mr. Darden was never disciplined. Mr. Darden has assaulted several individuals including clerks and attorneys and has never been disciplined, not even when he attempted to assault a judge. Why is that? Well, number one, Mr. Darden’s wife, Betty Campbell is said to have worked as one of former Administrative Judge Francois Nicolai’s henchmen and Mr. Darden is obviously a functional member of the cover-up academy in the court system. So, it is understandable that other high level participants would protect Mr. Darden.
The three individuals who visited my husband today didn’t come to conduct an investigation. They came to intimidate my husband. I will go so far as to say they sought to cause him to fear for his life. I am writing this blog to send a loud and clear message to all of the goons and potential goons, “we are not afraid.” The truth is on our side and we have absolutely nothing to hide. The court system cannot police itself because there are criminals in very high places that are running the show. So, you don’t fool anyone, but yourselves with your fake investigations. Let us bring it all out in the Public and have a Real People’s Court. My husband is not a member of the cocaine, sex and alcohol gang, neither am I and we are definitely not interested in the “Trading Spouses Association.” We stand for truth and justice always and we are not afraid to state this in public. I say to those in authority: “Are you ready to be unmasked before the public?” As my husband often says “the righteous have none to fear, but God!” My husband and I are available anytime for both lie detector tests and drug tests. Let us have the Citizens of the United States be the Judge and jury in open public.
Note: Please scroll down on my blog to a story published on April 19, 2012 entitled "Judge Alan Scheinkman is a Certified Racist." It is my belief that this story is the REAL motivation behind this supposed complaint and investigation. The opinions expressed on my blog are solely my own. These racists have tried other means to silenced me before. My husband was told during the campaign for Family Court that if he divorces me, he would be rewarded with a bigger judgeship. I wish these things were make belief, but they are not. They are just manifestations of the racist and corrupt system that there is.
