The judge said it wasn't the role of criminal courts to adjudicate the issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mirkarimi was represented today by a \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2012/01/26/BAGL1MUK6Q.DTL\">new lawyer\u003c/a>, Berkeley defense attorney Lidia Stiglich, who replaced attorney Robert Waggener on the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When arguing Mirkarimi's case, Stiglich asked the judge to at least approve supervised visits between him and his two-year-old son Theo if she wouldn't revoke the entire order. Stiglich argued that circumstances had changed since the judge issued that order on Jan 20, noting that Mirkarimi had attended three counseling sessions and that Lopez had been to see a victim's witness advocate, so was fully aware of her options. The lawyer also alluded to a Child Protective Services' report that she said noted Theo had been very affected by separation from his father. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In appealing to the judge to maintain the restrictions on Mirkarimi, Aguilar-Tarchi read aloud from a Jan 2 email in which Lopez said, \"I realize how serious it is to protect Theo and myself. I just would like to run away.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Stiglich's request, Judge Breall then adjourned the court to read the CPS evaluation, even though Assistant District Attorney Elizabeth Aguilar-Tarchi argued it was irrelevant. Whatever was in the report, however, obviously didn't sway Breall the way that Mirkarimi's team had hoped. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the hearing, Mirkarimi's attorney told KQED via email that they would be petitioning the family court for unsupervised visits with Theo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a side note: Local blogger Michael Petrelis was outside the courtroom holding a \"Resign, Ross, Resign\" sign. A handful of Mirkarimi supporters were also gathered on the steps of the court before the hearing. \u003c/p>\n\n",

Here's the scene as Mina related it for our 5 p.m. newscast: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n\"Lopez said she's not in fear or danger of any kind from her husband, she is perfectly capable of taking care of herself. She pointed to the fact she is a strong woman, that she is well-traveled, that the press does not intimidate her. She said the only violence is the system trying to keep her family apart. She showed the judge a T-shirt she made with her son, and I think I was able to make out the words 'We want Daddy back.' That was the one time she broke down during her statement, and so did Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi at that time. They both shed tears at the mention of their son Theo.\"\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Lopez's mention of not being intimidated by the press took on a little added meaning when she left the courtroom after the arraignment. She was mobbed by reporters and camera crews. Our reporter, Mina Kim, happened to be immediately in front of Lopez and had her headphones knocked off in the crush. She quoted KCBS reporter Chris Filippi as saying \"that was the most violent scrum I've ever seen.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Earlier:\u003c/strong> The last San Francisco sheriff, Michael Hennessey, served in that office for 32 years. His successor, Ross Mirkarimi, may yet make it that long, but he's not off to an auspicious start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mirkarimi, the former San Francisco supervisor who won election in November and was sworn in as sheriff on Jan 8, has pleaded not guilty to three misdemeanor charges at his arraignment at Superior Court in San Francisco. He faces one count each of domestic violence battery, dissuading a witness, and child endangerment, all in connection with an argument he had with wife, Eliana Lopez, on New Year's Eve. If convicted of all charges, he \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/crime/story/mirkarimi-faces-jail-time-over-abuse/\">faces a maximum of one year in prison\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Groups fighting domestic violence have \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/blogs/under-dome/2012/01/domestic-violence-groups-call-ross-mirkarimi-resign\">called on Mirkarimi to step aside\u003c/a>, at least temporarily, but he has \u003ca href=\"http://www.ktvu.com/videos/news/san-francisco-mirkarimi-vows-he-wont-step-down-as/vFmwc/\">said he has no intention of quitting\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Incident reported by neighbor\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident came to light after a neighbor named Ivory Madison reported it to police.

Lopez acted in several Venezuelan soap operas before moving to the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The Examiner has \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/files/blog_files/MIRKARIMI%20ARREST%20WARRANT%20AFFIDAVIT.pdf\">posted the arrest warrant\u003c/a> for Mirkarimi, which lays out the charges, and the affidavit from the police inspector recounting the evidence against him. That includes video of a purported \"large bruise on [Lopez's] right arm by her bicep.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also from the inspector's affidavit:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We reviewed the video and it showed the victim crying and pointing to her right arm pointing out a bruise on the area of her right bicep. The victim stated \"This happened yesterday. Two times in 2011 and this is the second time this is happening. I told Ross I want to work on the marriage, we need help. I been telling him we need help and I'm going to use this just in case he wants to take Theo [their son] away from me because he did said that he is very powerful and can do it.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The affidavit goes on to say that when Lopez was subsequently contacted by the police investigator, she declined to be interviewed and referred police to her attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case has taken a somewhat odd turn in that much attention is now being focused on the neighbor, Ivory Madison, in part because of an interview that Lopez gave to a Venezuelan radio station. In the interview, Lopez denied the allegations against her husband and questioned Madison's motivations in reporting the incident to police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can \u003ca href=\"http://www.noticias24.com/gente/noticia/76898/eliana-lopez-aclara-el-supuesto-maltrato-del-que-es-victima-no-soy-la-indiecita-victima-del-gringo-audio/\">listen to that interview, which is in Spanish, here\u003c/a>.

They're also not forgiving the fact he (Mirkarimi) comes from a family of immigrants.\"\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Lopez says her neighbor Ivory Madison \"has financial problems, no insurance, and that she \"knows her because Madison has a baby daughter the same age as my children.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\"Madison and I have made a deal where she can attend the classes I give on Saturdays for free, that's it.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\"My son is not in danger\" from my husband, he is in \"danger from everything that's going on.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\"This is a campaign to degrade my husband's image in our community.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\"This is political persecution, something us Venezuelans know so well.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\"I told her my husband and I had a discussion, like all married couples do, one that wasn’t even a fight. She then took what I said and turned it into these false accusations.

In that role, she helped pressure the Sugar Bowl committee, which oversees one of college football's top bowl games, to elect its first female members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She went on to enroll at the now-defunct New College of California Law School in San Francisco. In 2001, Madison had a run-in with the editor-in-chief of the school's law review over an article that she said contained offensive material, according to Lou Lesperance, a paralegal in San Francisco, who is a longtime friend of the former editor...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Madison received a law degree from the school in May 2003. But instead of practicing law, she helped found a consulting firm and then, in 2002, started the Red Room Writers Society, named after a White House room frequently used by Eleanor Roosevelt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The society became Redroom.com in 2007, a social networking and marketing site for authors ranging from Salman Rushdie to Barack Obama, initially backed by $1.25 million in funding from investors including Craig Newmark, the founder of Craigslist.org. Madison's fiancé is the site's general counsel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2009, Madison published a graphic novel, \"Huntress: Year One,\" about a female vigilante who fights sexist institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[Lesperance said], “knowing what I know about Ivory Madison, if I were Ross Mirkarimi, this is the last person I would want involved in this...\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Examiner is running this set of bullet points about Madison: \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>DC Comics comic book writer for The Huntress\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>Founder of Redroom.com, an online writers’ social network\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>Holder of a law degree\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>Political views: Self-described “radical feminist politico.” Donated to Ross Mirkarimi’s campaign for sheriff, along with district attorney candidate Sharmin Bock’s campaign and mayoral candidate Joanna Rees\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>Quotable: “Historical context is everything.

Here's the scene as Mina related it for our 5 p.m. newscast: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n\"Lopez said she's not in fear or danger of any kind from her husband, she is perfectly capable of taking care of herself. She pointed to the fact she is a strong woman, that she is well-traveled, that the press does not intimidate her. She said the only violence is the system trying to keep her family apart. She showed the judge a T-shirt she made with her son, and I think I was able to make out the words 'We want Daddy back.' That was the one time she broke down during her statement, and so did Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi at that time. They both shed tears at the mention of their son Theo.\"\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Lopez's mention of not being intimidated by the press took on a little added meaning when she left the courtroom after the arraignment. She was mobbed by reporters and camera crews. Our reporter, Mina Kim, happened to be immediately in front of Lopez and had her headphones knocked off in the crush. She quoted KCBS reporter Chris Filippi as saying \"that was the most violent scrum I've ever seen.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Earlier:\u003c/strong> The last San Francisco sheriff, Michael Hennessey, served in that office for 32 years. His successor, Ross Mirkarimi, may yet make it that long, but he's not off to an auspicious start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If someone really engaged in a vicious attack on a spouse and really hurt them badly, that would be a felony.

One of the things that's been interesting his first year in office is the degree to which he governed from a center-left coalition, where he was able to pull the progressives along on a variety of issues. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't know that his big-tent approach to governing isn't workable. It seems that's what he's doing here -- saying there are people who can represent progressive communities vigorously who at the same time he can work with, even though they may disagree on some issues. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I talked to a number of progressives during the election. While they didn't necessarily like some of the folks who were supporting Ed Lee's campaign, most of them really had good things to say about Ed Lee and working with him in the past. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the question around this appointment was: Do you try to consolidate your gains and choose a moderate, ensuring yourself a reliable vote on the board but risking a very difficult election in November, potentially not being able to hold onto the seat and losing to a progressive who you may not be able to work with? Or do you choose somebody who by all accounts is on the left end of the spectrum but is somebody who at the very least is certainly more pragmatic?\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, I asked Cook how the appointment might speak to accusations from certain \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbg.com/2011/11/01/anyone-lee?page=0,2\">progressive quarters\u003c/a> that Lee would govern simply as a proxy for Willie Brown and/or Rose Pak. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the perception of Lee is that he is doing the bidding of other people, it's incumbent on him to establish his independence. This choice is one that does that, I think. And while Willie Brown and Rose Pak were strong proponents of his election, that doesn't mean that they're necessarily going to be able to tell Lee what to do. Previously in his career, he has not done the bidding of those around him. To me it's a leap to assume just because these folks have supported his campaign that he's going to listen to them on everything, particularly because they don't always agree. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He's shown independent judgment in this case; he's picked somebody who has support within the district and it's likely to forestall a serious progressive challenge in November. And he's picked somebody who was associated with some of his core backers in the campaign – that's ultimately a pretty good move politically.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's Olague \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Xgflh4yv4&feature=player_embedded\">speaking at a Run Ed Run event\u003c/a> in July 2011:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe width=\"480\" height=\"274\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/H9Xgflh4yv4\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n",

It seems that's what he's doing here -- saying there are people who can represent progressive communities vigorously who at the same time he can work with, even though they may disagree on some issues. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I talked to a number of progressives during the election. While they didn't necessarily like some of the folks who were supporting Ed Lee's campaign, most of them really had good things to say about Ed Lee and working with him in the past. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the question around this appointment was: Do you try to consolidate your gains and choose a moderate, ensuring yourself a reliable vote on the board but risking a very difficult election in November, potentially not being able to hold onto the seat and losing to a progressive who you may not be able to work with? Or do you choose somebody who by all accounts is on the left end of the spectrum but is somebody who at the very least is certainly more pragmatic?\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, I asked Cook how the appointment might speak to accusations from certain \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbg.com/2011/11/01/anyone-lee?page=0,2\">progressive quarters\u003c/a> that Lee would govern simply as a proxy for Willie Brown and/or Rose Pak. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If the perception of Lee is that he is doing the bidding of other people, it's incumbent on him to establish his independence. This choice is one that does that, I think. And while Willie Brown and Rose Pak were strong proponents of his election, that doesn't mean that they're necessarily going to be able to tell Lee what to do. Previously in his career, he has not done the bidding of those around him. To me it's a leap to assume just because these folks have supported his campaign that he's going to listen to them on everything, particularly because they don't always agree. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He's shown independent judgment in this case; he's picked somebody who has support within the district and it's likely to forestall a serious progressive challenge in November. And he's picked somebody who was associated with some of his core backers in the campaign – that's ultimately a pretty good move politically.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's Olague \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Xgflh4yv4&feature=player_embedded\">speaking at a Run Ed Run event\u003c/a> in July 2011:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe width=\"480\" height=\"274\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/H9Xgflh4yv4\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
