Cal Poly Humboldt graduate student Richard “Rick” Toledo, a student activist, was arrested for alleged charges that occurred during the Feb. 27 sit-in of the Goodwin Forum in Nelson Hall East. The charges included suspicion of felony assault, battery, false imprisonment and conspiracy. He was held in Humboldt County Jail from March 6-8 under a Ramey Warrant before being released on bail.

In addition to his criminal case, Toledo is also facing suspension by Cal Poly Humboldt and a separate restraining order was filed by Cal Poly Humboldt, which is being represented by Samuel Kim, the Deputy Attorney General. The restraining order case has been dismissed and El Leñador confirmed the dismissal after Toledo provided the request for dismissal signed by both parties.

On March 26, Toledo attended an interim suspension appeal hearing. He is scheduled to have another university disciplinary hearing on April 8.

* Update: New information about the date of Rick Toledo’s additional disciplinary hearing was added to the story since it was originally printed.

The Women’s Resource Center (WRC) is hosting their annual Take Back the Night series of events from April 6-17. The event is part of a global movement to end sexualized and gender-based violence. The events will be hosted for two weeks and are open to the public.

The main event will be hosted on April 17, starting with a survivor speakout, a rally then ending with a silent vigil.

“After the rally, we’ll march down to the Arcata square and we’ll have our banner, we’ll have some chants going, and then hold a silent vigil,” Shearer said.

On March 22, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents detained a woman in front of her daughter at the San Francisco International Airport (SFO), amid deployment of ICE agents to 14 international airports across the U.S. as a result of the partial government shutdown. While SFO is not currently one of the airports the Trump administration has sent agents to, this incident has caused anxiety in many throughout the greater Bay Area and Northern California.

On March 27, House Republicans rejected a bipartisan Senate deal to end the government shutdown which is affecting the Department of Homeland Security and in turn, leaving the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) without pay. President Trump signed an order the same day to tap into a source of funds to pay TSA. White House Border Czar Tom Homan told CNN that ICE will remain at US airports until TSA operations are back to normal and “feel like they’re 100 percent.”

Agentes de Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detuvieron a una mujer frente a su hija en el San Francisco International Airport (SFO) el 22 de marzo, en medio del despliegue de agentes de ICE en varios aeropuertos internacionales de todo Estados Unidos. Mientras SFO no figura actualmente entre los aeropuertos a los que la administración de Trump ha enviado agentes, este incidente ha generado ansiedad a muchas personas en toda el Área de la Bahía y el norte de California.

El 27 de marzo, la cámara de representantes rechazó un trato del senado bipartidista para terminar con el cierre del gobierno que está afectando al Department of Homeland Security y a su vez, dejando al Transportation Security Administration (TSA) sin paga. El Presidente Trump firmó una orden el mismo día para acceder a una fuente de fondos para pagar al TSA. El zar fronterizo de la Casa Blanca dijo a la CNN que ICE seguirá en los aeropuertos de EEUU hasta que las operaciones de la TSA vuelvan otra vez a la normalidad y se “sientan que están al 100 por ciento”.
