Eric Clanton, a former East Bay community college philosophy professor linked online to violent assaults with a metal bike lock during a “free speech” rally in Berkeley on April 15, was charged Friday afternoon with four counts of assault with a deadly weapon, a felony, with the special allegation of causing great bodily injury to Sean Stiles. Additionally, the charges include the misdemeanor offense of wearing a mask to evade identification. If convicted, Clanton could be sent to prison.
>Clanton, 28, of Oakland appeared alongside his attorney, Dan Siegel, in Alameda County Superior Court before Judge Thomas Nixon in Department 112. Siegel, who has been active for decades in East Bay social justice circles, rose to fame in the 1960s as a student activist at UC Berkeley during clashes with authorities.
>Clanton pleaded not guilty to all charges and Judge Nixon set bail at $100,000. The routine hearing lasted only 15 minutes.
>“I imagine we’ll get him out this weekend, maybe tonight,” Siegel said.
>Clanton will next appear in court on June 14 to set dates for the preliminary hearing.
>/2017/05/26/ He doesn't stand before the judge again until June.

Why is the trial always getting postponed???? All his appearances so far have all lasted no longer than 2 minutes. Why is that allowed? I wanna see him fry
Bentley Martin

Noah Lewis
Dumb ass faggot should have stuck to making shit music.
James Torres
But why? He basically just shows up and then the judge says > we'll see you again in two months. >Repeat WTF??????? Why????
Julian Watson
Bureaucracy is slow. That doesn't mean its any better for him.
Elijah Lopez
commiefornia is an unironic 3rd world shithole with sjw junta court system.
Luke Mitchell
The article you posted is from last year faggot. Pretrial hearing is June 12, 2018. He's likely working out a plea deal.
Oliver Walker
Sorry, meant to call op a faggot. You're ok.
Ayden Price
Then the next one will be August, October, and so on
Landon Wood
Likely not. If he's working a plea, it's gotta be close.
Gavin Johnson
Yeah i get that, i just dont understamd the reason why they bother to set up a date when all they do is postpone again. Why does one do that???
William Adams
Dumb faggot shouldnt have made himself so traceable. apparently according to the police report, they traced his phone to the scene of the crime and when his place was raided it was full of antifa shit, the cloths he wore, and the supposide bike lock itself.
The funny thing is that he could have gotten away with it if he simply diddnt bring his phone to the protest, and if he had cleared out his place
Isaiah Young
I hope he's not a butt virgin anymore.

How much time is he looking at?
Gabriel Ortiz
Fuck I thought that said Eric Clapton for a minute and damn near shit myself.
Austin Davis
he’s got a right to a speedy trial and some Jewish judges decided that meant infinite postponements aren’t a violation of your rights because it’s been postponed! Don’t ya love jews, Hans!

the rich and evil are allowed to do things like this here, user. the system is set up so they don't face consequence while others do
Dominic Perry
>(((Siegel)))
Every fucking time.
Evan Hernandez
I bet they go easy on him. He'll get some sympathetic kike judge and be sentenced to community service.
Evan Reed
But what do they gain from this?????????? It seems like nobody can answer me this. Why do you keep asking for a postponment and why do the judges allow this?
Leo Powell
The defense has to waive the right to speedy trial for the continuance to happen. The defense is likely the party dragging it out negotiating a plea.
Austin Bailey
Pol is dead, long live Pol!
Aaron Cox
Defence lawyers like postponing things because they can extract more shekels from their clients the longer its drawn out.

They don't want the wrong people (us) encouraged.
All it is.
Noah Hall
Probably have a bunch of fruitcake liberals and "he a good boy" type niggers on the jury.
Landon Fisher
Judges are mostly idiots who grew up in the hippy era.
They let defence lawyers do what ever they like, including dragging cases out for years so they can extract more money from their dumb clients.
Also the courts make money from court fees etc.
The legal system is a joke.
Jayden Barnes
I see. So it basically is jews being jews. Thanks, buddy

I read that as Eric Clapton and thought the UK charged him for his anti-immigrant comments
