Hanen, of Federal District Court for the Southern District of Texas in Brownsville, granted a \u003ca href=\"https://www.scribd.com/doc/256075869/Texas-Et-Al-v-U-S-Et-Al-Memorandum-Opinion-and-Order-2-16-2015\" target=\"_blank\">preliminary injunction\u003c/a> to 22 plaintiff states (and leaders of others) suing the U.S. government to stop the expansion of the 2012 \u003ca href=\"http://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/consideration-deferred-action-childhood-arrivals-daca\" target=\"_blank\">Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals\u003c/a> program. DACA allows some children brought to the country illegally to apply for a temporary quasi-legal status. They can legally work and live in the U.S. for two years, any deportation actions against them \"deferred\" -- not as a change to the law, the Department of Justice argues, but as an exercise of law enforcement discretion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DACA program in its original form isn't subject to yesterday's order, and so it will continue. Nearly 700,000 people have formalized their status through the program to date, according to Hanen's order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge blocked an \u003ca href=\"http://www.uscis.gov/immigrationaction\" target=\"_blank\">expansion to DACA\u003c/a> that would extend the deferred period from two to three years and remove an age cap requiring the applicant to be born after 1981. It was scheduled to roll out Wednesday. Hanen's order also stopped a similar program that would allow the parents of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents to apply for three years of deferred action slated to start in mid-May. For \"Dreamers,\" young people able to take advantage of DACA and work legally after college graduation, a way to formalize the immigration status of their parents was the logical next step.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Depending on who's talking, yesterday's preliminary injunction is either just a temporary legal hurdle that will be overturned or a solid prediction of how courts will rule on Obama's attempt to use executive authority to allow some undocumented immigrants relief from fear of deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED's Beth Willon reports that immigrant advocacy groups gathered at San Jose’s Sacred Heart Church Tuesday morning called the preliminary injunction a \"speed bump\" and told families to stay positive despite the order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My story in the United States has been one of dedication, discipline, hope and a lot of patience,\" Microsoft software engineer Felipe Salazar said. \"And true to the American Dream, it began to pay off when DACA was enacted. The actions in immigration that ultimately became DACA were possibly the greatest thing that happened to me and my family.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salazar said he moved with his parents to the U.S. from Colombia in 2001. He graduated from high school in 2008 and finished a master's degree by the end of 2011, about six months before the first version of DACA took effect. He applied, was accepted and can legally work today because of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is always an ongoing fight.\" he said. \"This is just temporary, so I encourage everyone to still gather their documents and get ready to enroll as soon as it becomes available.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salazar's parents don't have access to the same kind of relief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These programs didn’t originally deal with some of the family reunification issues that are so important to immigration law,\" said Kevin Johnson, dean of the UC Davis School of Law. He said expanding the program for parents was the next logical step and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/USCIS/ExecutiveActions/EAFlier_DAPA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Deferred Action for Parents of Americans\u003c/a> (yep, DAPA) would have done that, at least temporarily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson said the ruling would make it more difficult for millions of people in the country illegally to live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The promise that something good was going to happen with immigration status has been delayed once again,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cecilia Muñoz, director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, said Tuesday that the Department of Justice plans to appeal the order to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It won't stop there, Johnson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Whoever loses is going to take it to the Supreme Court,\" he said. \"The stakes are so high and the public attention is so focused, it’s hard to see a final resolution in this case until it gets to the high court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another legal expert, Chapman University law Professor John Eastman, agreed the case would eventually end up before the Supreme Court, but not on this appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The judge's ruling that there is a very good likelihood of success on the merits ... that what the president is doing is illegal -- I think that’s where we’re going have the ongoing fight, and that’s ultimately what will be resolved by the Supreme Court, but not at this stage.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eastman said he agrees with Hanen's order, which while not final, indicates the plaintiffs are likely to succeed in the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The president, in choosing not just not to enforce the immigration laws -- that’s bad enough, the judge said -- but to give a lawful status that the law does not allow for, that’s where the president clearly exceeds his statutory authority,\" Eastman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-San Jose) said a similar suit was previously dismissed by a different federal judge, a point the White House echoed Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There was a lot of sense that the Republican governors did a little forum shopping and found the judge they thought might best rule their way,\" she told KQED's Ted Goldberg. \"Obviously, this is not the end of the matter. An appeal will be made, and I am hopeful that this is just a temporary setback.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Jerry Brown and California Attorney General Kamala Harris were among other state leaders expressing disappointment in the order.\u003c/p>\n\n",

They can legally work and live in the U.S. for two years, any deportation actions against them \"deferred\" -- not as a change to the law, the Department of Justice argues, but as an exercise of law enforcement discretion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DACA program in its original form isn't subject to yesterday's order, and so it will continue. Nearly 700,000 people have formalized their status through the program to date, according to Hanen's order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge blocked an \u003ca href=\"http://www.uscis.gov/immigrationaction\" target=\"_blank\">expansion to DACA\u003c/a> that would extend the deferred period from two to three years and remove an age cap requiring the applicant to be born after 1981. It was scheduled to roll out Wednesday. Hanen's order also stopped a similar program that would allow the parents of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents to apply for three years of deferred action slated to start in mid-May. For \"Dreamers,\" young people able to take advantage of DACA and work legally after college graduation, a way to formalize the immigration status of their parents was the logical next step.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Depending on who's talking, yesterday's preliminary injunction is either just a temporary legal hurdle that will be overturned or a solid prediction of how courts will rule on Obama's attempt to use executive authority to allow some undocumented immigrants relief from fear of deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The actions in immigration that ultimately became DACA were possibly the greatest thing that happened to me and my family.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salazar said he moved with his parents to the U.S. from Colombia in 2001. He graduated from high school in 2008 and finished a master's degree by the end of 2011, about six months before the first version of DACA took effect. He applied, was accepted and can legally work today because of the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is always an ongoing fight.\" he said. \"This is just temporary, so I encourage everyone to still gather their documents and get ready to enroll as soon as it becomes available.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salazar's parents don't have access to the same kind of relief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These programs didn’t originally deal with some of the family reunification issues that are so important to immigration law,\" said Kevin Johnson, dean of the UC Davis School of Law. He said expanding the program for parents was the next logical step and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/USCIS/ExecutiveActions/EAFlier_DAPA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Deferred Action for Parents of Americans\u003c/a> (yep, DAPA) would have done that, at least temporarily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson said the ruling would make it more difficult for millions of people in the country illegally to live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The promise that something good was going to happen with immigration status has been delayed once again,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cecilia Muñoz, director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, said Tuesday that the Department of Justice plans to appeal the order to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It won't stop there, Johnson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Whoever loses is going to take it to the Supreme Court,\" he said. \"The stakes are so high and the public attention is so focused, it’s hard to see a final resolution in this case until it gets to the high court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another legal expert, Chapman University law Professor John Eastman, agreed the case would eventually end up before the Supreme Court, but not on this appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The judge's ruling that there is a very good likelihood of success on the merits ... that what the president is doing is illegal -- I think that’s where we’re going have the ongoing fight, and that’s ultimately what will be resolved by the Supreme Court, but not at this stage.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eastman said he agrees with Hanen's order, which while not final, indicates the plaintiffs are likely to succeed in the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The president, in choosing not just not to enforce the immigration laws -- that’s bad enough, the judge said -- but to give a lawful status that the law does not allow for, that’s where the president clearly exceeds his statutory authority,\" Eastman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-San Jose) said a similar suit was previously dismissed by a different federal judge, a point the White House echoed Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There was a lot of sense that the Republican governors did a little forum shopping and found the judge they thought might best rule their way,\" she told KQED's Ted Goldberg. \"Obviously, this is not the end of the matter. An appeal will be made, and I am hopeful that this is just a temporary setback.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Jerry Brown and California Attorney General Kamala Harris were among other state leaders expressing disappointment in the order.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Angelou herself had reportedly been searching for the series for years. Her representatives reached out to the Bay Area TV archive as early as 2005 looking for it, but there was no trace of the series there or in any other local archive, including KQED's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, San Francisco State film archivist Alex Cherian was working on a project for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, sifting through thousands of cans of film, when he came across one canister with a single handwritten word scribbled on the outside: \"Angelou.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Intrigued, Cherian queued up the film to find the poet touring a neighborhood in Watts, just a few years after the 1965 riots had ripped through that community. In the segment, which Cherian would later learn was part of the ninth episode, Angelou says the conflicts in Watts \"represented a people, a race fighting for survival.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The material was so compelling, I wanted to find the whole series,\" Cherian says. \"I assumed it would be relatively simple.

In early 2013, on a whim, he called the \u003ca href=\"https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sfbatv\" target=\"_blank\">Library of Congress\u003c/a> and learned that they had the entire 10-hour series preserved on \u003ca href=\"http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b9/2-inch_Quad_Tape_Reel_with_miniDV_cassette.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">two-inch videotape\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So why did the Library have it? To make a long story short, KQED co-produced many films with \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Educational_Television\" target=\"_blank\">National Educational Television\u003c/a>, a public broadcasting predecessor to PBS in the sixties. When NET dissolved in 1970, a part of their archive including KQED's \"Blacks, Blues, Black!\" was transferred to WNET, New York City's public media affiliate. At some point after that, WNET deposited a small sampling of this inherited archive at the Library of Congress, where it sat untouched for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until Cherian called in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10432274\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/02/angelou-and-king.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-10432274 size-large\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/02/angelou-and-king-1440x1076.jpg\" alt='Maya Angelou interviewing B.B.

Over the next year, the J. Paul Leonard Library at San Francisco State, where the Bay Area TV Archive is housed, was able to raise the necessary funds, mainly through commercial licensing for Bay Area television stations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At that point, confident that \"Blacks, Blues, Black!\" would finally be made widely available again, Cherian reached out to Maya Angelou's representatives to share the good news. In an email dated May 14, 2014, Angelou's office manager relayed that the poet was \"over the moon\" that the series had been found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two weeks later, on May 28, Angelou passed away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By that time the hot summer months had set in, and with them another delay. \"It turns out the Library of Congress doesn’t work with old video in the humid season,\" Cherian said. So the restoration process was put on hold until November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, last month, Cherian received the full 10 hours of uncompressed digital masters of \"Blacks, Blues, Black!\" All ten episodes are now freely available \u003ca href=\"https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sfbatv/10287\" target=\"_blank\">online\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Cherian, an American Masters documentary film about Dr. Angelou's life, set to be released in 2016 and endorsed by her family, may use some of the unique footage rediscovered in this series.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>If you have any information regarding \u003cem>\"Blacks, Blues, Black!\"\u003c/em> contact Alex Cherian at acherian@sfsu.edu.

When NET dissolved in 1970, a part of their archive including KQED's \"Blacks, Blues, Black!\" was transferred to WNET, New York City's public media affiliate.

Over the next year, the J.

In an email dated May 14, 2014, Angelou's office manager relayed that the poet was \"over the moon\" that the series had been found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two weeks later, on May 28, Angelou passed away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By that time the hot summer months had set in, and with them another delay. \"It turns out the Library of Congress doesn’t work with old video in the humid season,\" Cherian said.

So this is part of a growing trend, and a growing trend to combat the kind of critique and negative press that they’re getting -- arguably justifiably -- for the way they’ve acted in other events in the past.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland civil rights attorney Jim Chanin has been litigating with the OPD since 1979, and he's one of a team of attorneys behind the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2012/12/06/oaklands-agreement-on-police-dept-receivership-by-any-other-name\" target=\"_blank\">Negotiated Settlement Agreement\u003c/a> stemming from the Riders scandal that erupted in 2000. Chanin's been pushing the OPD for greater transparency and better use-of-force policies through that process for more than a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the department has changed, but only recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you’d asked me that question in 2012, when I’d been doing this for nine years, I would have said no,\" Chanin said, \"but since you’re asking the question in 2015 ... the answer’s yes. The department is much more open and transparent since Sean Whent was appointed as chief of police.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whent was named interim chief in May 2013 -- a few weeks before Oakland's last officer-involved shooting, in which a suspect was killed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chanin says that in the past couple years, some amazing things have happened with Oakland police use of force, crime and the department's relationship with the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Citizen complaints have fallen in Oakland by 33 percent,\" Chanin said. \"Uses of force are down even more than a third, yet arrests are up and crime is down. So what that shows is you can have constitutional, transparent policing without raising your crime rate or endangering officer safety. And I think that's an important lesson that departments around the country should take note of.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps they are. Whent is on the national stage, recently speaking in Washington, D.C., about his department's evolving crowd management policies following violent clashes with protesters during Occupy Oakland. He was on a \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/02/05/eric-holder-seeks-straight-talk-on-policing-in-bay-area-visit/\" target=\"_blank\">panel last week\u003c/a> with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder talking police/community relations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the Oakland Police Department was also an early adopter of body-worn cameras, with every uniformed cop wearing one since 2013. Officers' cameras were rolling during Friday's incident, according to the department, and investigators are reviewing the footage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cameras won't solve all problems, Aviram said, but they can help diffuse violence on both sides of the badge before it happens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The cops that use the lapel cameras are reporting that they’re seeing a lot less animosity from people who see that the interaction with the cops is being recorded,\" she said. \"It may also be curbing the cops' tendency to use force or be more aggressive in an interaction with citizens if they know that it’s being recorded.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the same goes for a department that knows it's expected to report details of critical incidents quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the police department itself knows the information is being disseminated,\" Aviram said, \"they might try to combat bad policies to begin with to avoid the negative publicity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An open and approachable police department will have a better relationship with the community it polices, Chanin said, which will improve officer safety and help solve crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Aviram said that kind of relationship might still be a ways off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think right now there is a lot of public animosity, much of it understandable, much of it justified, toward police departments and toward the way they’ve been acting,\" she said. \"So I think it’s going to take a pretty substantial change to restore community faith in police behavior.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"release\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nRead the news release below:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[scribd id=255248953 key=key-9DcBM0RkTOqOTYQjNzbE mode=scroll]\u003c/p>\n\n",

So this is part of a growing trend, and a growing trend to combat the kind of critique and negative press that they’re getting -- arguably justifiably -- for the way they’ve acted in other events in the past.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland civil rights attorney Jim Chanin has been litigating with the OPD since 1979, and he's one of a team of attorneys behind the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2012/12/06/oaklands-agreement-on-police-dept-receivership-by-any-other-name\" target=\"_blank\">Negotiated Settlement Agreement\u003c/a> stemming from the Riders scandal that erupted in 2000. Chanin's been pushing the OPD for greater transparency and better use-of-force policies through that process for more than a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the department has changed, but only recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you’d asked me that question in 2012, when I’d been doing this for nine years, I would have said no,\" Chanin said, \"but since you’re asking the question in 2015 ... the answer’s yes. The department is much more open and transparent since Sean Whent was appointed as chief of police.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whent was named interim chief in May 2013 -- a few weeks before Oakland's last officer-involved shooting, in which a suspect was killed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chanin says that in the past couple years, some amazing things have happened with Oakland police use of force, crime and the department's relationship with the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Citizen complaints have fallen in Oakland by 33 percent,\" Chanin said. \"Uses of force are down even more than a third, yet arrests are up and crime is down. So what that shows is you can have constitutional, transparent policing without raising your crime rate or endangering officer safety. And I think that's an important lesson that departments around the country should take note of.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps they are. Whent is on the national stage, recently speaking in Washington, D.C., about his department's evolving crowd management policies following violent clashes with protesters during Occupy Oakland. He was on a \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/02/05/eric-holder-seeks-straight-talk-on-policing-in-bay-area-visit/\" target=\"_blank\">panel last week\u003c/a> with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder talking police/community relations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the Oakland Police Department was also an early adopter of body-worn cameras, with every uniformed cop wearing one since 2013. Officers' cameras were rolling during Friday's incident, according to the department, and investigators are reviewing the footage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cameras won't solve all problems, Aviram said, but they can help diffuse violence on both sides of the badge before it happens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The cops that use the lapel cameras are reporting that they’re seeing a lot less animosity from people who see that the interaction with the cops is being recorded,\" she said. \"It may also be curbing the cops' tendency to use force or be more aggressive in an interaction with citizens if they know that it’s being recorded.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the same goes for a department that knows it's expected to report details of critical incidents quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the police department itself knows the information is being disseminated,\" Aviram said, \"they might try to combat bad policies to begin with to avoid the negative publicity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An open and approachable police department will have a better relationship with the community it polices, Chanin said, which will improve officer safety and help solve crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Aviram said that kind of relationship might still be a ways off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think right now there is a lot of public animosity, much of it understandable, much of it justified, toward police departments and toward the way they’ve been acting,\" she said. \"So I think it’s going to take a pretty substantial change to restore community faith in police behavior.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"release\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nRead the news release below:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ciframe\n class=\"scribd_iframe_embed\"\n src=\"//www.scribd.com/embeds/255248953/content?start_page=1&view_mode=&access_key=key-9DcBM0RkTOqOTYQjNzbE\"\n title=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/255248953\"\n data-auto-height=\"true\" scrolling=\"no\" id=\"scribd_255248953\"\n width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\n \u003ca class=\"utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__scribdShortcode__scribd_footer\"\n href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/255248953\"\n target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View this document on Scribd\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

He can’t come in and save us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said many in the room made very specific suggestions about what should immediately change: There should be dependable national statistics on police misconduct and violence, she said. And a special prosecutor, someone other than district attorneys who work closely with local police departments, should make charging decisions in cases alleging crimes by police officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laney College student and Youth UpRising member Eric Jones said concrete steps for change are more important than the 90-minute talk with the nation's top cop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What steps are going to be taken?\" he asked outside the Federal Building. \"Eric Holder's resigning soon, so what more can he do after resigning?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Jones said he understood Holder's message that trust is two-sided, increasing police accountability, and having the community's trust that could improve officer safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"On both sides, that’s been a war that’s been going on for years,\" he said. \"That’s been a social norm in the community for so long -- to hate the police, or to not snitch. It’s been a social norm within the police to get the person that fits the description, whatever the description may be.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons said Holder's visit was enough to bring criminal justice stakeholders together, but the work shouldn't stop there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not what somebody from outside does,\" she said. \"The real question is: What are we prepared to do in our own city? Are we prepared to go beyond our comfort zone and build relationships with people that generally we'd have an adversarial approach to? So can the faith-based community and the police community and the youth-serving organizations and the mayor and the federal government all be in a different set of relationships that ultimately are in our collective interests?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The attorney general continued his Bay Area visit with a trip to San Francisco Thursday afternoon, where he met with police officers and students at the Willie Mays Boys & Girls Club.\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cp>NEW YORK — A San Francisco man was swiftly convicted Wednesday of creating and operating an underground website that prosecutors said enabled drug dealers around the world to reach customers they would never find on the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross William Ulbricht was convicted of seven drug and conspiracy counts. The jury’s verdict in federal court in Manhattan came after little more than three hours of deliberations and one day after prosecutors urged jurors to follow Ulbricht’s “digital fingerprints.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government said drug dealing made up almost all of Silk Road’s sales during its nearly three years in business, which ended with Ulbricht’s October 2013 arrest. Prosecutors also discounted defense claims that Ulbricht was framed by others in a murky Internet world where nothing is what it seems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors said Ulbricht enabled more than 1 million drug deals on Silk Road and earned about $18 million in bitcoins. Sales of illegal drugs of every type were delivered through the website, representing at least $180 million in sales, they said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ulbricht had several supporters among the spectators. When the verdict was announced, his father dropped his head in his hands. Later, a male spectator shouted out, “Ross is a hero!” Another called out to him: “It’s not over Ross. We love you.” As Ulbricht was led out of court, he waved toward the spectator section.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lyn Ulbricht, his mother, exited the courtroom complaining that the defense had been barred from putting on evidence that would help her son.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was not a fair trial. It was not an even playing field, and I think that’s a tragedy,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said the conviction “should send a clear message to anyone else attempting to operate an online criminal enterprise. The supposed anonymity of the dark Web is not a protective shield from arrest and prosecution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government said the fallacy of Ulbricht’s promise of anonymity in the dark corners of the Internet as a reason for customers to peddle their illegal merchandise online was exposed by numerous trial witnesses, including the first: Homeland Security Agent Jared Der-Yeghiayan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He testified that shipments originating on the website first came to his attention in June 2011 when X-rays and canine detection dogs at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport turned up envelopes from the Netherlands containing Ecstasy pills wrapped in vacuum seal and foil. Soon, the drugs were being sent through many countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By late September, Der-Yeghiayan said he learned about Silk Road and began infiltrating it, taking over staff member accounts each time one was arrested or agreed to cooperate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agent testified that the website’s online boss went by the alias Dread Pirate Roberts, a reference to the swashbuckling character in \u003cem>The Princess Bride\u003c/em>, and prosecutors presented numerous instant message conversations involving a person using that persona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Defense attorney Joshua Dratel insisted evidence proved Ulbricht was not Dread Pirate Roberts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Der-Yeghiayan said he was the agent who was communicating online with Ulbricht when he was arrested while sitting at his computer at San Francisco’s Glen Park Library. Agents, he said, were instructed to snatch the laptop before arresting Ulbricht.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On it, he said, they discovered that Ulbricht was signed in as Dread Pirate Roberts and was immersed in a chat with Der-Yeghiayan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During closing arguments Tuesday, Dratel said his client quit Silk Road soon after creating it to sell anything on the Internet and before the website was overrun by drug dealers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Assistant U.S. Attorney Serrin Turner said Ulbricht operated the site from beginning to end and was willing to do anything to protect it. He cited emails that he said showed Ulbricht was willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to kill as many as five people he thought were threats to his operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ulbricht faced no murder charges in New York, but still awaits trial in Baltimore in a murder-to-hire plot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His sentencing in New York is scheduled for May 15, and some of the charges carry a maximum of life in prison.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The jury’s verdict in federal court in Manhattan came after little more than three hours of deliberations and one day after prosecutors urged jurors to follow Ulbricht’s “digital fingerprints.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government said drug dealing made up almost all of Silk Road’s sales during its nearly three years in business, which ended with Ulbricht’s October 2013 arrest. Prosecutors also discounted defense claims that Ulbricht was framed by others in a murky Internet world where nothing is what it seems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors said Ulbricht enabled more than 1 million drug deals on Silk Road and earned about $18 million in bitcoins. Sales of illegal drugs of every type were delivered through the website, representing at least $180 million in sales, they said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ulbricht had several supporters among the spectators. When the verdict was announced, his father dropped his head in his hands. Later, a male spectator shouted out, “Ross is a hero!” Another called out to him: “It’s not over Ross. We love you.” As Ulbricht was led out of court, he waved toward the spectator section.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It was not an even playing field, and I think that’s a tragedy,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said the conviction “should send a clear message to anyone else attempting to operate an online criminal enterprise. The supposed anonymity of the dark Web is not a protective shield from arrest and prosecution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government said the fallacy of Ulbricht’s promise of anonymity in the dark corners of the Internet as a reason for customers to peddle their illegal merchandise online was exposed by numerous trial witnesses, including the first: Homeland Security Agent Jared Der-Yeghiayan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He testified that shipments originating on the website first came to his attention in June 2011 when X-rays and canine detection dogs at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport turned up envelopes from the Netherlands containing Ecstasy pills wrapped in vacuum seal and foil. Soon, the drugs were being sent through many countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By late September, Der-Yeghiayan said he learned about Silk Road and began infiltrating it, taking over staff member accounts each time one was arrested or agreed to cooperate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agent testified that the website’s online boss went by the alias Dread Pirate Roberts, a reference to the swashbuckling character in \u003cem>The Princess Bride\u003c/em>, and prosecutors presented numerous instant message conversations involving a person using that persona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Defense attorney Joshua Dratel insisted evidence proved Ulbricht was not Dread Pirate Roberts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Der-Yeghiayan said he was the agent who was communicating online with Ulbricht when he was arrested while sitting at his computer at San Francisco’s Glen Park Library. Agents, he said, were instructed to snatch the laptop before arresting Ulbricht.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On it, he said, they discovered that Ulbricht was signed in as Dread Pirate Roberts and was immersed in a chat with Der-Yeghiayan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During closing arguments Tuesday, Dratel said his client quit Silk Road soon after creating it to sell anything on the Internet and before the website was overrun by drug dealers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Assistant U.S. Attorney Serrin Turner said Ulbricht operated the site from beginning to end and was willing to do anything to protect it. He cited emails that he said showed Ulbricht was willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to kill as many as five people he thought were threats to his operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ulbricht faced no murder charges in New York, but still awaits trial in Baltimore in a murder-to-hire plot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His sentencing in New York is scheduled for May 15, and some of the charges carry a maximum of life in prison.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
