Freedom Sleepers Citation Tally
Here is a list of charges for the "Freedom Sleepers" civil-disobedience weekly homeless-activist protest-camp at city hall.
Despite my analysis that the homeless protest-camp strategy doesn't work to change legislation in Santa Cruz, I've been impressed at the sheer tenacity of the movement. As an act of civil-disobedience, one might be interested in how many people are being charged with crimes. We haven't yet seen a tally, so I've done my own.
These numbers were culled from Indybay reports and are very likely incomplete data. Citation numbers are known to be higher but an accurate count was never done:
July 4, 22 officers, +8 citations
July 19, 12 officers, 2 citations
July 26, 0 due to Tannery missing person’s
August 2, ?
August 12, 10 officers, 7 citations, 1 arrest, 2 stay away orders
August 18, 13 officers, +2 citations
August 25, 14 officers, +2 citations, 2 arrests
