East Cleveland is at it again. Mayor Lateek Shabazz is appointing a so-called special investigator into the 2021 case of Vincent Belmonte and Sgt. Larry McDonald. But here’s the hard truth: this case was already fully investigated by BCI, handed to a special prosecutor, and reviewed by a Cuyahoga County grand jury — which returned a no bill. Translation: McDonald’s use of force was ruled justified.
So why drag this back into the headlines? Politics. Distraction. Another rerun of East Cleveland’s favorite game — noise over facts.
In this episode of The Infamous Ex-Chief, we dig into the actual evidence. The body-worn cameras, the forensic reports, the autopsy, and the grand jury findings. We expose how the media twists the narrative and how activists push claims that don’t survive contact with the case file. And we pull receipts — straight from the documents still available online.
Accountability matters, but so does evidence. Reinvestigation should be about truth-finding, not political theater.
