DESCRIPTION:8 AM   Arraignment for Isaac "Lyrical I" Collins, Santa Cruz activist, who 
 staffed the Information Tent in front of the Courthouse on Water St. before 
 sheriff's deputies destroyed it.\n\nIsaac is charged with felony possession 
 of marijuana for sale--the only person so charged from the huge 4-20 event 
 that happens every year up at UCSC in the Great Meadow.   \n\nIsaac is 
 African-American, outspoken, and in jail on $5000 bail at the 
 moment.\n\nCheck the court calendar to see where he'll be escorted in--in 
 chains and handcuffs.  Yes, folks, this really is Santa Cruz 2012\nNo, the 
 drug war is far from over.   Not to mention the war against 
 African-Americans and Occupy Santa Cruz activists.\n\n\n9 a.m.  HUFF 
 (Homeless United for Friendship & Freedom) meeting in the "American 
 Cafe"--the overpriced D.A.-ridden cafeteria in the basement of the County 
 Building.  We'll be discussing \n       ...May 1st protests.\n       
 ..Working with Food Not Bombs or setting up a regular meal ourselves as a 
 homeless gathering event to document harassment and property seizure\n     
 ....Support against anti-homeless laws in Venice, CA and Denver, Colorado\n 
      ...Securing information on police officers who are regularly harassing 
 homeless people downtown...\n      ...Info about and solidarity with police 
 ticketing crackdown after the closing of the Armory...\n      ...Nessa's

 courtroom...\n      ...Latest news on SCPD use of "tosic gases"\n\n\n10 AM 
 Dept. 6  Judge Burdick makes a ruling on a Pitchess motion by Cameron 
 Lauredean's attorney Alexis Briggs.  Cameron is one of the SC 11.  \n\nThis 
 motion concerns an attempt to examine in chambers the complaints against 
 Officer Winston to see if the judge will release the contact info of anyone 
 who complained about him in the past on the issue of credibility (i.e. 
 lying or error).  The point is to find defense witnesses to challenge 
 Winston's testimony at trial.\n\n\n10 AM Dept. 6  Main Event.  Burdick 
 hears final arguments in the Preliminary Examination for Cameron, Ed 
 Rector, Grant Wilson, and Angel.  Burdick indicated Monday at the afternoon 
 hearing that he was having a hard time with conspiracy-happy D.A. Rebekah 
 Young and her "evidence".    \n\nMore about this case even made its way 
 into the commercial media.  \n\nSee
