Without exception she was the worst judge I ever appeared before. Nasty, vindictive, unfair, harsh, punitive, and just an all around terrible human being. She was pretty much universally despised by almost everyone at 100 and 111 Centre Street. She was the epitome of an awful judge. I transferred to another borough before she retired early and I was thrilled to never have to appear before her again. She was a despicable person who actively tried to harm people who appeared before her for petty reasons.

Evil judge through the book at me while I was in high school I caught an attempted robbery case. I was the witness to an attempted robbery committed by my little brother and friend I told them not to do it but were were arrested. they proceeded and they were 15 and under I was 16. I went to jail was bailed out and was accepted to an alternative to incarceration program fortune society. While attending high school I was given monthly court dates and was closely monitored by this judge. She threatened me not to be late or miss days of school or I would be remanded for those amount of days. My senior year I was late a few times and missed two days of school totaling 10 tardies on my attendance. She mandated me to a ged program preventing me from graduating high school and sent me to jail for 10 days where I was jumped and beat on. This judge is a purely evil individual I hope she sees this b4 she croaks . She single handedly ruined my life and destroyed my chances of going to college and living a fruitful life . I bet if I was a young white kid she would have gave me just probation or a slap on the wrist. She retired while I was in jail and left notes for the judge who replaced her to send me to jail. I have never recovered from the detriment she has put me through I hated this lady I always will

Truly vile, vicious person. Absolute horror show as a judge. Both she and her equally nasty, little troll like law clerk would smirk, sneer, and make catty comments about whoever was unfortunate enough to be before them. No idea how this vile person ever became administrative judge at 100 Centre Street because not only wasn't she smart but she had all the professionalism of a reptile. The end of her judicial reign of terror could not come fast enough.

Dear Judge Scherer: Back in1999/2000 I was convicted of a fifth degree Felony for a kickback to a union Official, received 5 years probation and served 2 1/2 years. Is there someway I can get the felony reduced to a misdemeanor ?

A truly awful judge. Universally disliked by lawyers, clerks, officers, litigants, and even some of her fellow judges. Exceedingly hostile, antagonistic, disagreeable, and nasty to one and all. Both she and her loathsome little law clerk, who seemed to be permanently joined at the hip to her on the bench, would then habitually make life as unbearable and unpleasant as possible for all those who were unfortunate enough to share the same courtroom as them.

She managed to alienate defense attorneys, prosecutors, court officers and fellow judges. Everyone in 100 and 111 Centre Street breathed a sigh of relief when she retired.
