Drop Charges Against Mara Randle

On the afternoon of Oct. 25, 2011, Mara Randle, a substitute teacher in the Oakland School District, a student in a Master of Education Program who is pursuing her teacher credential, was beaten and arrested by Oakland Police Department officers. Mara was peacefully participating in an afternoon rally to protest the eviction of Occupy Oakland from the city hall plaza. Mara was not guilty of any illegal act, never been arrested. She will not plead guilty and is willing to go to trial to exonerate her name and reputation.
