Bail Hearing for Oscar Grant Killer

Tomorrow, Friday Jan. 30th, there will be a bail hearing for Johannes Mehserle, the officer who killed Oscar Grant.
We know that several police officers will be in the courtroom to show their support for Mehserle. It is critical that the judge and the police see that everyday people who are concerned about police accountability and justice for Oscar Grant are there as well. If you're in the area, we want to invite you to come.
WHAT:   Bail hearing for Johannes Mehserle
WHEN:   Friday, January 30th at 2pm
WHERE:   Alameda County Courthouse,
1225 Fallon Street, Oakland, CA 94612
Department #11 (Judge Morris Jacobson's courtroom, 510-891-6052)


As you can imagine, tensions can run high at court hearings like this one. We want to encourage you to attend, but also want to make sure you understand that given the level of anger around the Oscar Grant case, we can't know exactly what it will be like at the courthouse tomorrow.
