His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Now, they may have a more interested audience: The race has changed significantly in recent days, and activists across the country are taking note.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was supposed to be the first time in a century that the race was open in San Francisco, with no incumbent in office. It was upended last week when District Attorney George Gascón announced he would step down on Oct. 18, nearly three months early, and weeks before Election Day. Gascón said last year that he wouldn't run for reelection but had been expected to serve out his term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote]The four district attorney hopefuls agree on many issues. Their differences lie in their experience and approach to the job.[/pullquote]On Friday, Mayor London Breed appointed the candidate she endorsed as interim DA, former prosecutor Suzy Loftus, to replace Gascón. The surprise announcement sparked a backlash from other candidates and their supporters. Protesters decrying election interference and Loftus’ time on the city's Police Commission stormed Portsmouth Square, where the announcement was going to be made.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, at a Chinese restaurant where the event was hastily moved, Breed defended her choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have confidence in Suzy Loftus and so that's why I made the decision,” she said. “If there was anyone else that I thought was better than what she would bring to the table then they would be the person that I would identify today.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11778714\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11778714\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"San Francisco District Attorney candidate Nancy Tung in downtown San Francisco.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/San-Francisco-District-Attorney_candidate_Nancy-Tung-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco District Attorney candidate Nancy Tung in downtown San Francisco. \u003ccite>(Sheraz Sadiq/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The move further cements Loftus as the establishment candidate.

He was arrested before completing the deal and his daughter was not admitted. Huneeus’ family owns vineyards in the Wine Country and Oregon. After he was arrested in March, Huneeus ceded control of the family business to his father.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13852765/u-s-accuses-actresses-others-of-fraud-in-massive-college-admissions-scandal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Federal officials charged dozens of people\u003c/a> in the conspiracy, including a number of Bay Area parents, who paid enormous sums to ensure their children got into elite schools. In some cases that included falsifying records and test scores, or even creating fake athletic resumes with doctored photos of other student-athletes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deals were all made through William “Rick” Singer, a Sacramento resident who “owned and operated the Edge College & Career Network LLC (‘The Key’) – a for-profit college counseling and preparation business – and served as the CEO of the Key Worldwide Foundation (KWF) – a nonprofit corporation that he established as a purported charity,” according to the Justice Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result of the scandal, Gov. Gavin Newsom also signed three laws Friday: to tighten rules on when colleges can admit students who don’t meet standard eligibility requirements; to require schools to tell the Legislature if they give preferential treatment to some applicants; and to prevent people found guilty in the scandal from receiving tax benefits stemming from bribes that might have been disguised as charitable contributions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This package of bills strikes at the forces that keep the doors of opportunity closed to too many people in our state,” said Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an extensive \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/file/1142876/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report\u003c/a> submitted to the U.S. Department of Justice, the college admissions scheme is laid out in detail via emails and recorded phone calls. That includes the specific of Huneeus’ dealings with Singer. Huneeus is accused of paying for fraudulent SAT scores and a fabricated athletic profile that falsely identified his daughter as a “3-year Varsity Letter winner” in water polo and “Team MVP 2017.” This includes the following photograph, which is actually of someone else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11778241\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 664px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/?attachment_id=11778241\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11778241\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11778241\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Agustin-Huneeus-Jr.-daughter.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"664\" height=\"546\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Agustin-Huneeus-Jr.-daughter.jpg 664w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Agustin-Huneeus-Jr.-daughter-160x132.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A fabricated athletic profile falsely identified Augustin Huneeus Jr.’s daughter as a “3-year Varsity Letter winner” in water polo and “Team MVP 2017,” along with this fabricated photograph, which is of another individual. \u003ccite>(U.S. Department of Justice)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In transcripts of the recorded phone calls, Huneeus works out the logistics of having his daughter take the SAT at a special location in L.A., where Singer assures him a proctor will be flown out to change her answers. Huneeus is later recorded complaining that she only got a 1380 on the SAT — which Singer tells him is better than a higher score because it won’t arouse suspicion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus also paid for his daughter, who did not play water polo, to be admitted as an athlete on the USC water polo team. On recorded phone calls, he was told to send a $50,000 check to USC Women’s Athletics and his daughter’s athletic “achievements” would then be presented to a committee for admissions acceptance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area resident also sought assurances from Singer that his daughter wouldn’t have to actually play for the USC team and that she would be guaranteed admittance after he paid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“OK, so there’s no chance that I give that 50 [thousand dollars] and then she’s not admitted?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You won’t send it until you get the letter.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Additionally, Huneeus was then instructed to pay Singer’s foundation another $200,000 after the final admissions letters went out. In the transcripts, Singer voices concern that authorities are cracking down on him and that Huneeus should say the money was a donation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Dude, what do you think, I’m a moron?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No, I’m not saying you’re a moron, the point is…”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m going to say that I’ve been inspired how you’re helping underprivileged kids get into college. Totally got it.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Throughout the recorded conversations, Huneeus also mentions another Bay Area parent involved in the scandal, Bill McGlashan. McGlashan wanted his son, who went to the same school as Huneeus’s daughter, to remain unaware of the arrangements with Singer, whereas Huneeus had a different agreement. McGlashan is a Mill Valley investment manager whose brother was a prominent Marin County supervisor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus also, at one point, asks Singer if this is going to blow up in his face. “Hasn’t in 24 years,” responds Singer on the transcript.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Singer is identified as “Cooperating Witness 1” in the indictment, with prosecutors noting he hoped for a lenient sentence in return for aiding investigators. He later pleaded guilty to charges of racketeering, money laundering and conspiracy. He began cooperating with the government in late 2018, but added obstruction to his charges after warning some of the subjects about the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors recommended a $95,000 fine and 15 months in prison for Huneeus, the longest term they have sought for a parent involved in the case. His lawyers said he deserved two months. He was sentenced to five months, a $100,000 fine and 500 hours of community service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus is among a few parents accused of pursuing both angles of the scam: Most either cheated on their children’s college entrance exams or paid bribes to get them admitted as recruited athletes, but not both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In court documents, Huneeus said that he realized cheating for his daughter “was not about helping her, it was about how it would make me feel. In the end my own ego brought me down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus has also said he is ashamed and saw that his actions represent “the worst sort of entitlement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Gavin Newsom also signed three laws Friday: to tighten rules on when colleges can admit students who don’t meet standard eligibility requirements; to require schools to tell the Legislature if they give preferential treatment to some applicants; and to prevent people found guilty in the scandal from receiving tax benefits stemming from bribes that might have been disguised as charitable contributions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This package of bills strikes at the forces that keep the doors of opportunity closed to too many people in our state,” said Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an extensive \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/file/1142876/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report\u003c/a> submitted to the U.S. Department of Justice, the college admissions scheme is laid out in detail via emails and recorded phone calls. That includes the specific of Huneeus’ dealings with Singer. Huneeus is accused of paying for fraudulent SAT scores and a fabricated athletic profile that falsely identified his daughter as a “3-year Varsity Letter winner” in water polo and “Team MVP 2017.” This includes the following photograph, which is actually of someone else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11778241\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 664px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/?attachment_id=11778241\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11778241\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11778241\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Agustin-Huneeus-Jr.-daughter.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"664\" height=\"546\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Agustin-Huneeus-Jr.-daughter.jpg 664w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/Agustin-Huneeus-Jr.-daughter-160x132.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A fabricated athletic profile falsely identified Augustin Huneeus Jr.’s daughter as a “3-year Varsity Letter winner” in water polo and “Team MVP 2017,” along with this fabricated photograph, which is of another individual. \u003ccite>(U.S. Department of Justice)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In transcripts of the recorded phone calls, Huneeus works out the logistics of having his daughter take the SAT at a special location in L.A., where Singer assures him a proctor will be flown out to change her answers. Huneeus is later recorded complaining that she only got a 1380 on the SAT — which Singer tells him is better than a higher score because it won’t arouse suspicion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus also paid for his daughter, who did not play water polo, to be admitted as an athlete on the USC water polo team. On recorded phone calls, he was told to send a $50,000 check to USC Women’s Athletics and his daughter’s athletic “achievements” would then be presented to a committee for admissions acceptance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area resident also sought assurances from Singer that his daughter wouldn’t have to actually play for the USC team and that she would be guaranteed admittance after he paid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“OK, so there’s no chance that I give that 50 [thousand dollars] and then she’s not admitted?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You won’t send it until you get the letter.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Additionally, Huneeus was then instructed to pay Singer’s foundation another $200,000 after the final admissions letters went out. In the transcripts, Singer voices concern that authorities are cracking down on him and that Huneeus should say the money was a donation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Dude, what do you think, I’m a moron?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No, I’m not saying you’re a moron, the point is…”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m going to say that I’ve been inspired how you’re helping underprivileged kids get into college. Totally got it.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Throughout the recorded conversations, Huneeus also mentions another Bay Area parent involved in the scandal, Bill McGlashan. McGlashan wanted his son, who went to the same school as Huneeus’s daughter, to remain unaware of the arrangements with Singer, whereas Huneeus had a different agreement. McGlashan is a Mill Valley investment manager whose brother was a prominent Marin County supervisor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus also, at one point, asks Singer if this is going to blow up in his face. “Hasn’t in 24 years,” responds Singer on the transcript.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Singer is identified as “Cooperating Witness 1” in the indictment, with prosecutors noting he hoped for a lenient sentence in return for aiding investigators. He later pleaded guilty to charges of racketeering, money laundering and conspiracy. He began cooperating with the government in late 2018, but added obstruction to his charges after warning some of the subjects about the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors recommended a $95,000 fine and 15 months in prison for Huneeus, the longest term they have sought for a parent involved in the case. His lawyers said he deserved two months. He was sentenced to five months, a $100,000 fine and 500 hours of community service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus is among a few parents accused of pursuing both angles of the scam: Most either cheated on their children’s college entrance exams or paid bribes to get them admitted as recruited athletes, but not both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In court documents, Huneeus said that he realized cheating for his daughter “was not about helping her, it was about how it would make me feel. In the end my own ego brought me down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huneeus has also said he is ashamed and saw that his actions represent “the worst sort of entitlement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But officials say patients have mentioned the Dank name frequently. Many of the people who got sick in Illinois and Wisconsin, for example, said they used cartridges sold in Dank packaging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The raw materials to produce a Dank vape aren’t hard to find: Ready-to-fill Dank boxes and cartridges can be ordered from Chinese internet sites for pennies apiece. A Craigslist post last week offered a box stuffed with empty Dank packages for $16. And you can buy the boxes and empty cartridges in shops in downtown Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A rogue producer adds cannabis oil — almost certainly untested — and it’s ready for sale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a generic product name that doesn’t really tie back to one store or one distributor,” Dr. Jennifer Layden, chief medical officer for the Illinois Department of Public Health, said last month. “Folks are getting it from friends or folks on the street, with no understanding of where it came from prior to that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chief selling point for vapes in Dank packaging: It’s a quick high on the cheap, available for as little as $20 a gram on the illicit market, roughly one-third of what a customer would pay for a cartridge in a legal marijuana shop in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But they come with real risk: Products in the \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/Marijuana\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">legal marijuana market\u003c/a> are tested for safety and purity, while those in the illicit market are not, and could contain pesticides, heavy metals or other dangerous contaminants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to California records, no licensed company in the state is manufacturing a cannabis vape carrying the Dank name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was never a legitimate company,” said Los Angeles dispensary owner Donnie Anderson. “It was always an underground brand.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given the shadowy pedigree of Dank vapes, it’s not surprising that details about the product’s history are scarce. In California, the Dank name appears to have emerged during the largely unregulated medical cannabis era, prior to broad legalization that began in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dispensary owner Jerred Kiloh, who heads the Los Angeles-based \u003ca href=\"https://ucba.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">United Cannabis Business Association\u003c/a>, recalls seeing Dank vapes for the first time about seven years ago. Kiloh remembers being visited by vendors interested in selling them at his shop, though that stopped long ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What remains is the name, which has managed to retain a surprising cachet in the underground industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month, Wisconsin authorities uncovered an illegal vaping-cartridge operation that they said was producing thousands of cartridges, each loaded with THC oil, every day for nearly two years. Photographs released by the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department showed neatly stacked Dank boxes and cartridges, apparently ready for shipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also last month, Minnesota authorities seized nearly 77,000 THC vaping cartridges, some of which were packaged in Dank boxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"more vaping stories\" tag=\"vaping\"]In November 2018, authorities in Lorain County, Ohio, intercepted four packages mailed from California holding individually wrapped and sealed packages of Dank cartridges. They believed numerous similar packages were sent to the area previously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Dank Vapes appears to be the most prominent in a class of largely counterfeit brands, with common packaging that is easily available online and that is used by distributors to market THC-containing cartridges with no obvious centralized production or distribution,” said a report by Illinois and Wisconsin officials, and from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doctors say the vaping-related illnesses resemble an inhalation injury. Symptoms have included shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, diarrhea and vomiting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ron Gershoni, co-founder of vape producer Jetty Extracts, who sits on the board of the California Cannabis Manufacturers Association, said the strictly regulated legal industry has been working to distinguish itself from the underground market that continues to thrive in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His company doesn’t view Dank vapes as a competitor, but he understands how the name has survived in the illegal market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They “essentially sell empty packaging, and anyone can fill it,” he said. “It’s a business model that made sense [to] anybody who wanted to make a buck.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Many of the people who got sick in Illinois and Wisconsin, for example, said they used cartridges sold in Dank packaging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The raw materials to produce a Dank vape aren’t hard to find: Ready-to-fill Dank boxes and cartridges can be ordered from Chinese internet sites for pennies apiece. A Craigslist post last week offered a box stuffed with empty Dank packages for $16. And you can buy the boxes and empty cartridges in shops in downtown Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A rogue producer adds cannabis oil — almost certainly untested — and it’s ready for sale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a generic product name that doesn’t really tie back to one store or one distributor,” Dr. Jennifer Layden, chief medical officer for the Illinois Department of Public Health, said last month. “Folks are getting it from friends or folks on the street, with no understanding of where it came from prior to that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chief selling point for vapes in Dank packaging: It’s a quick high on the cheap, available for as little as $20 a gram on the illicit market, roughly one-third of what a customer would pay for a cartridge in a legal marijuana shop in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But they come with real risk: Products in the \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/Marijuana\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">legal marijuana market\u003c/a> are tested for safety and purity, while those in the illicit market are not, and could contain pesticides, heavy metals or other dangerous contaminants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to California records, no licensed company in the state is manufacturing a cannabis vape carrying the Dank name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was never a legitimate company,” said Los Angeles dispensary owner Donnie Anderson. “It was always an underground brand.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given the shadowy pedigree of Dank vapes, it’s not surprising that details about the product’s history are scarce. In California, the Dank name appears to have emerged during the largely unregulated medical cannabis era, prior to broad legalization that began in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dispensary owner Jerred Kiloh, who heads the Los Angeles-based \u003ca href=\"https://ucba.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">United Cannabis Business Association\u003c/a>, recalls seeing Dank vapes for the first time about seven years ago. Kiloh remembers being visited by vendors interested in selling them at his shop, though that stopped long ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What remains is the name, which has managed to retain a surprising cachet in the underground industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month, Wisconsin authorities uncovered an illegal vaping-cartridge operation that they said was producing thousands of cartridges, each loaded with THC oil, every day for nearly two years. Photographs released by the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department showed neatly stacked Dank boxes and cartridges, apparently ready for shipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They argued the warehouse was illegally converted into an unsafe living space with complete disregard for safety, violating nine fire codes. Prosecutors argued the victims didn't have enough notice, time or the ability to exit when the building began to fill with smoke, due to a lack of sprinklers, alarms and adequate exit signage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy District Attorney Autrey James also argued that Almena almost immediately violated the terms of the lease he signed in November 2013 by allowing people to live there. The prosecution said major alterations to the Ghost Ship were made without the required building permits and that events were held in the building without clearance from the city of Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warehouse owner Chor Ng, and her son and daughter, Kai and Eva Ng, were not charged. Almena testified that landlord Eva Ng had asked him to get permits for changes to the warehouse but that he had declined, and that \"early on\" in the immediate months after signing the lease he had \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11760427/ghost-ship-defendant-says-he-wont-blame-anybody-for-deadly-warehouse-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">asked the Ngs to obtain the proper permits\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During closing arguments, defense attorneys pointed to testimony by many former tenants and visitors who said they felt the Ghost Ship was safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense also argued that personnel from several agencies, including Oakland's police and fire departments, as well as Child Protective Services, had passed through the warehouse dozens of times in the years leading up to the fire and had never flagged the building, never red-tagged it or issued any eviction notices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys for both defendants also argued during the criminal trial the fire may have been intentionally set, presenting testimony from several witnesses who said they saw a group of people starting the deadly blaze. Almena and Harris, their attorneys said, couldn't have done anything to prevent the alleged arson. James said in his rebuttal to the defense's closing arguments that there was no evidence of arson and called testimony by a key witness \"unbelievable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense also said in closing arguments that their clients were scapegoats for the city of Oakland, which Serra said failed to enforce its own building and safety regulations. The city is one of several defendants in a civil lawsuit arising from the fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trial began on April 30 and jury deliberations began three months later on July 31. On the 10th day of deliberations, three jurors were dismissed for misconduct. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11768501/3-jurors-in-ghost-ship-trial-replaced-deliberations-must-begin-all-over-again\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Three alternates were rotated into the jury and Thompson told them to begin deliberations anew\u003c/a>.

Harris agreed to a six-year jail sentence with four years of supervised release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Aug. 10, 2018, Alameda County Superior Court Judge James Cramer \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11686316/judge-rejects-plea-deals-in-deadly-oakland-warehouse-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rejected the pleas\u003c/a>, a decision that put the case on the path to this year's trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In explaining his decision, Cramer said Almena didn't acknowledge responsibility or show remorse for the fatal blaze. Cramer said the plea deal would have been fair for Harris, but in rejecting it for one defendant, he was bound by the law to reject it for both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Reporting from Bay City News was used in this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

They argued the warehouse was illegally converted into an unsafe living space with complete disregard for safety, violating nine fire codes. Prosecutors argued the victims didn't have enough notice, time or the ability to exit when the building began to fill with smoke, due to a lack of sprinklers, alarms and adequate exit signage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy District Attorney Autrey James also argued that Almena almost immediately violated the terms of the lease he signed in November 2013 by allowing people to live there. The prosecution said major alterations to the Ghost Ship were made without the required building permits and that events were held in the building without clearance from the city of Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warehouse owner Chor Ng, and her son and daughter, Kai and Eva Ng, were not charged. Almena testified that landlord Eva Ng had asked him to get permits for changes to the warehouse but that he had declined, and that \"early on\" in the immediate months after signing the lease he had \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11760427/ghost-ship-defendant-says-he-wont-blame-anybody-for-deadly-warehouse-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">asked the Ngs to obtain the proper permits\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During closing arguments, defense attorneys pointed to testimony by many former tenants and visitors who said they felt the Ghost Ship was safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense also argued that personnel from several agencies, including Oakland's police and fire departments, as well as Child Protective Services, had passed through the warehouse dozens of times in the years leading up to the fire and had never flagged the building, never red-tagged it or issued any eviction notices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys for both defendants also argued during the criminal trial the fire may have been intentionally set, presenting testimony from several witnesses who said they saw a group of people starting the deadly blaze. Almena and Harris, their attorneys said, couldn't have done anything to prevent the alleged arson. James said in his rebuttal to the defense's closing arguments that there was no evidence of arson and called testimony by a key witness \"unbelievable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
