Occupy Oakland Protesters Arraigned

Almost five days after the general strike called by the Occupy Oakland movement, the courts finally have set bail for the last of those held in jail. There were 101 arrests in total during the strike. 90 were released last week, some with misdemeanor citations, some without charges. 8 more were released without charges today. Three were actually arraigned. Brian Edwards-Tiekert was at one of those arraignments and filed this report.
