Posted by: Hannan Adely - Posted in Uncategorized on May 14, 2009

Helen Blackwood was sworn in as the newest Mount Vernon city judge on Monday. Blackwood was appointed to fill the post after Judge Brenda Dowery-Rodriguez retired. Blackwood is a name well known around the city. Her father, Ronald Blackwood, is a former Mount Vernon mayor and was the first black mayor elected in New York State. He’s also the man that the city’s court facility is named after.

    Seems like old times. The only things that change are the flowers on the dress.

    What flowers? Everything the lady wears is depressing black. Lets see if her attitude changes or will she bring doom and gloom to the courts? Good luck guys. She’s your problem now. He come da judge!
