WHY NEW YORK STATE APPELLATE COURT JUDGE THEODORE T. JONES SHOULD BE IMPEACHED
(ABOVE) TRIO OF CORRUPTION IN ALBANY: JUDGE THEODORE T. JONES, APPOINTED TO THE NY STATE APPELLATE COURT BY MORALLY CORRUPT GOVERNOR “JOHN” SPITZER CONVERSES WITH DAVID PATERSON WHO WAS FINED FOR RECEIVING YANKEE TICKETS AND MAY SOON FACE CRIMINAL CHARGES.
JUDGE JONES SHOULD BE IMPEACHED BECAUSE HE PURCHASED HIS JUDGESHIP FROM HIS FORMER LAW PARTNER AND CONVICTED FELON CLARENCE NORMAN Jones is an African American who practiced law with Clarence Norman, the Brooklyn Democratic Party boss subsequently convicted of accepting illegal campaign contributions. In 1990 Jones won election to State Supreme Court (he was re-elected in 2004), and in 2006 he was selected as Administrative Judge in the Civil Term in Queens." Source Judicial Reports But when Judge Jones had a case before him involving his old law partner he failed to recuse himself CLARENCE IN COURT A supporter of Ed Roberts, who's running against Assemblyman Clarence Norman, claimed that three of Norman's employees collected "close to
2,000 signatures or at least signed off on them" and that these were "the bulk of his signatures." Norman had told our Helen Klein that he filed 6,500 signatures because so many people were inspired to help him after he was targeted for prosecution by District Attorney Joe Hynes. However, it seems most of Norman's signatures were on omnibus petitions carried for other candidates, such as Rep. Major Owens and State Senator Carl Andrews. We're told that Roberts has subpoenaed Norman's entire staff and demanded their time cards for a hearing before Judge Ted Jones. The implication of that is that Roberts doesn't believe the staff members could collect so many signatures while also working full days for the state. Norman, incidentally, is reportedly being represented by attorney Richard Genovesi, son of the late Assemblyman Tony Genovesi, who was Norman's political rival through the 1990s." BROOKLYN EAGLE Judge Jones did everything in his power to see that the Jewish Defense Organization was convicted of libel, for exposing the fact that Steve Rombom was an FBI informant, for writing that he spent his formative years in mental hospitals and for other allegations I could not prove as Judge Jones would not let the JDO enter into evidence federal court documents that were given to AJ Weberman by mistake at the Federal Records Depository in Bayonne, New Jersey. These documents can be found at http://steverombom.org While I was sitting in Judge Jones' courtroom one morning a day after the Clarence Norman broke I heard him discussing the investigation into Clarence Norman and the sale of judgeships in Brooklyn. Pretending to be engrossed in my newspaper I overheard his Honor tell his bailiff "We were very careful!" Why would he make such a statement in front of me? Because he knew I was going to be convicted of libel and he believed that would destroy my credibility. Anyway, who are you going to believe AJ Weberman or a distinguished jurist? When Norman was first investigated Judge Jones supported his old law partner. As his reward for convicting me and the much maligned Jewish Defense Organization of libel he was promoted to Chief Administrative Judge of the State Supreme Court in Brooklyn. Then Governor Eliot Spitzer tapped Judge Jones, Jr. to fill a vacancy on the state’s Appellate Court. The New York Times reported, Mr. Spitzer, who as attorney general represented the state in litigation against the transit workers’ union over the strike, said, “For the public, that was probably the first significant opportunity to see Judge Jones’s demeanor and thinking and methodology.” In another case that attracted some publicity, Justice Jones in June 2002 upheld a jury verdict that held the Jewish Defense Organization, a militant group, liable for defaming Steven Rombom, a private investigator, on several Internet sites.
The same Eliot Spitzer who put his wife in danger of contracting AIDS by balling high priced hookers bareback. This was Jones' reward for busting the transit workers union, many of whom were Black like Judge Jones. All the transit workers union wanted was decent pay but in order to further his career this bootlicker, this traitor to his own people who have been oppressed by racism, crippled the union. This is from the NYT of November 8, 2008: Transit Union Leader Vows No More Strikes By WILLIAM NEUMAN With the transit workers’ union suffering from financially crippling penalties for its illegal strike in 2005, the union’s president pledged in recently filed court papers that the union had no intention of going on strike again “now or in the future.” Roger Toussaint, the president of Transport Workers Union Local 100, made the pledge in an affidavit seeking to restore the union’s right to automatically collect dues from members’ paychecks. The 38,000-member union was fined $2.5 million and stripped of what is known as dues check-off as punishment for its 60-hour strike in December 2005, which violated the state’s Taylor Law barring public-sector unions from going on strike. The union has been hobbled by the loss of automatic dues collection, and its revenues appear to have fallen by millions of dollars, though many members have continued to pay dues. Mr. Toussaint’s affidavit, which is dated Oct. 21, says that the union “does not assert the right to strike against any government” and that the union “has no intention, now or in the future” of conducting or threatening a strike against the transit agency. The Amsterdam News reported, "The justice, who has served in the State Supreme Court in Brooklyn for 17 years, is perhaps best known for his handling of the transit strike in 2005 in which he fined the Transport Workers Union $2.5 million for violating the state’s Taylor Law that prohibits public employees from striking. He also sentenced Roger Toussaint, the union’s president, to 10 days in jail. Toussaint served three-and-a-half days before being released for good behavior.“This is a very sad day in the history of the labor movement in New York City,” Justice Theodore T. Jones said upon issuing his contempt order against Toussaint. Toussaint felt the fine was excessive and believed he would be vindicated, which, to some extent he was when he was re-elected in the recent union elections. EX BLACK PANTHER CHARLES BARRON COMPARES JONES TO CLARENCE THOMAS, NOTED UNCLE TOM Councilman Charles Barron was livid when he heard the announcement of Jones’s appointment.
As far as I’m concerned, Judge Jones is the Clarence Thomas of New York,” Barron told the Amsterdam News. “Just as Thomas busted affirmative action, Jones is a union buster. And to think that Spitzer made this announcement on Dr. King’s birthday is absolutely disgraceful. Nominating Jones is not about diversity, He’s against everything we stand for. His fine of the TWU was excessive, and he didn’t have to send Roger to jail. The Taylor Law is an unjust law, and Roger and the union were challenging it in the same way Dr. King defied injustice and unfair laws. We need judges who are authentically Black, not descriptively Black. JONES WAS UNQUALIFIED TO BE ON THE COURT OF APPEALS "Hon. Theodore Jones Named Administrative Judge of Brooklyn Supreme Court, Civil Term Hon. Theodore Jones has been presiding as a Justice of the Supreme Court in Brooklyn since 1990.

Justice Jones is on the Board of Directors for Judicial Friends, a former member of the Committee on Character and Fitness, Second Department, and a past recipient of the Brooklyn Bar Association’s Judicial Excellence Award." (Jan. 5, 2006 from www.nycourts.gov) Judicial Excellence? Check out this article from the NYT: Bus Matron Charged in Sex Abuse of Handicapped Students By ROBERT E. TOMASSON Published: December 4, 1990 Over the last three months, a woman who supervised a school bus carrying handicapped children in Brooklyn sexually abused seven of the students repeatedly, the police charged yesterday. The police said the woman abused the children in the back of the bus while they were on the way home from Public School 38, at 450 Pacific Street in the Boerum Hill section. 49 Felonies The woman, Denise Macaluso of 7111 12th Avenue in the Bensonhurst section, was charged with 49 felonies and 87 misdemeanors, including 4 counts of sodomy, 5 of sex abuse and 40 counts of sodomy in the second degree, all felonies, and 39 counts of sexual abuse and 48 counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Lieut. Vito Spano, commander of the Brooklyn sex crimes squad, said the victims, ages 9 to 13, were abused in the back of the bus "without the apparent knowledge of the bus driver." The investigation began when one of the children told a parent about the incidents, Lieutenant Spano said. Detectives then interviewed each child on the bus separately, he said. He said the investigation was continuing. Miss Macaluso was arraigned in State Supreme Court in Brooklyn on Sunday morning. After pleading not guilty, she was released on $50,000 cash bail. Miss Macaluso, who lives with her parents, has an unlisted telephone number and could not be reached. A message left for her lawyer, Dennis P. Hamernick, with offices in downtown Brooklyn, was not returned. Handicapped Students Only Miss Macaluso had worked as a parttime bus matron for the Amboy Bus Company since July 1988, overseeing children as the bus took them to and from school. Last July she was made a permanent employee of the company, at 1752 Shore Parkway in Bensonhurst. The bus she supervised carried only handicapped students. In a statement, Domenic F. Gatto Jr., the president and chief executive of the company, said that Miss Macaluso, in accordance with Board of Education requirements, had "been subjected to background investigations including fingerprint checks for past criminal history" and that "neither investigation contained any adverse information." Miss Macaluso, the statement said, had "an unblemished performance record." Probation in Sex Abuse Published: June 24, 1993 A school bus matron in Brooklyn convicted of sexually abusing two boys and endangering five others was sentenced yesterday to five years' probation, a sentence that angered the victims' parents. The parents had demanded that State Supreme Court Justice Theodore Jones sentence Denise Macaluso, 29, of Brooklyn, to 15 years in prison. She was convicted on Feb. 24. TWO OTHER JUDGES WHO RULED ON JDO'S MOTIONS WERE CROOKS The first time I entered Brooklyn Supreme Court I smelled something funny. Here was all this money changing hands and no press scrutiny. I was right.
Supreme Court Justice Michael Garson a Brooklyn judge who made several rulings against the JDO this scoundrel was indicted for looting his elderly aunt's fortune. Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes filed a grand larceny charge against Supreme
Court Justice Michael Garson - six months after a grand jury voted to indict the jurist. This gonnif was the son of Supreme Court Judge Gerald Garson who was busted and agreed to roll over on other corrupt players. He talked to Manhattan attorney Ravi Batra, who's become a principal in Brooklyn judicial politics since his law firm hired Assemblyman Clarence Norman, the Democratic county chief. Norman made Batra vice chairman of his judicial screening panel, which allegedly tries to weed out corrupt or unqualified people before they get to be judges. (TOM ROBBINS April 30-May 6, 2003 VILLAGE VOICE) When the Brooklyn Democratic organization went looking for someone to fill a civil court seat its search went no further than its own offices. There, party leader Clarence Norman's eyes settled on Robin Garson, the wife of Gerald Garson, the party's former treasurer who had moved up, as they say on Court Street, to Supreme Court. Robin Garson was a lawyer who had long displayed her loyalty by helping Norman's Kings County Democratic Committee knock insurgents off the ballot. The prize handed Robin Garson had special political value because, unlike other slots, hers had no opponent requiring a tedious and expensive primary.
Judge Victor Barron, installed by Clarence Norman in 1998, spoke with authority at a sentencing when he declared, "No one is above the law." The sentencing, after all, was his own. The silver-haired Brooklyn judge was led out of the courtroom in handcuffs to begin a three- to nine-year prison term for taking thousands of dollars in bribes perhaps the most troubling scene so far in a judicial corruption scandal that one watchdog group calls the worst in the nation. This was another Judge who made unfavorable rulings against the JDO. Jones is very tight with the corrupt Jewish Judiciary and received the Golda Meir award from them. Many Jewish judges regard the JDO as a vigilante organization and an embarrasment to the Jews. They confuse it with the racist Jewish Defense League even though the JDL was Kahanist and the JDO are followers of the Honorable Zev Jabotinsky, who even left wing Jews like Shalomet Aloni are begining to respect. The fix was in and there was no way the JDO was going to beat this rap.
