BronxNet Nosotros Program Profiles Bronx Judge

By MARTIKA ORNELLA

Judge Llinet Rosado sat down with Yeila Lluberes of BronxNet’s Nosotros on April 25 at 9:30 p.m. The pair discussed Rosado’s journey from having grown up in housing projects on the Lower East Side to her election as a Bronx County Civil Court judge.

Rosado was born in the Dominican Republic and immigrated to the United States as a young child. She worked at the Bronx Legal Aid Society and as a family law attorney.

Nosotros is a Spanish language program that profiles prominent members of the Bronx community, with in-depth discussions meant to inspire and connect. Rosado’s Nosotros episode aired during BronxNet programming on Channel 67 for Optimum viewers and on Channel 33 for Verizon Fios.

BronxNet is an independent non-profit public access television program that aims to encourage community growth through media literacy.
