I’m here at UCI where people have occupied the quad outside of Rowland Hall, calling for an end to the occupation and for UC divestment from Boeing, BlackRock and Raytheon.

Also odd:
-She had to pay $50k bond on offenses that the bail schedule says are $0 bail
-AG asked for a warrant (instead of summons) on nonviolent offense, ensuring she'd be booked + have mugshot taken
-Her lawyer still hasn't been told what records she's accused of taking

Happy birthday Cerise Castle 🤍🤍

BRIGHTON, Colo. (AP) — Paramedic who injected Elijah McClain with ketamine before his death avoids prison, gets probation.

This is a screenshot from cell phone video obtained by ABC15 Arizona.

It shows ASU’s police chief in street clothes at todays’s protest.

He’s cutting tents.

He then slapped the phone out of the hand of the person recording the video.

We’ll have the footage on @Abc15 at 10pm.

Prosecutors hold enormous power: they can brand these protesters with a criminal record for life—or let them go.

it's easy to see who's coming to the UCLA campus to harass the students protesting in the royce quad encampments. the photo of the flags i took is in the same territory (santa monica blvd in beverly hills) as the red in the election results.

Today Los Angeles jails just posted their 11th in-custody death for the year -- a 38-year-old woman who died in CRDF, the women's jail in Lynwood.

5hrs later the encampment has expanded.

an Emerson College student sent me this video of city crews cleaning blood from the alleyway where 108 students were arrested last night during an encampment sweep. I'm at Boston municipal court today where eight of those arrested have been given summons for arraignments in May.

As prez of Society of Professional Journalists, I’ve requested a call with Texas DPS Director to ask why this FOX 7 Austin photographer was targeted and arrested by DPS while simply doing his First Amendment protected job. Video clearly shows he didn’t hit an officer. Charges should be dropped immediately!
