The bay area, but now found living halfway around the world. And investigators say he may have admitted to his crime on facebook. Good evening. Thank you for joining us. Im dan ashley, and im ama daetz tonight. This suspect originally from saratoga, is being held in held in jail in france. Theres been a warrant for him for more than three years now. The description of his alleged actions some may find upsetting. Authorities say the victim showed them a facebook message from him that said, quote, so i raped you. End quote. Abc seven News Reporter j. R. Stone is following the story, joins us live tonight with those details jr. Umma dan there are certainly still questions out there on why in a digital age like the one that were seemingly in, it took authorities nearly three years to find this man. Nevertheless he is in custody right now. The man blurred out in this photo, 31 year old ian cleary, who was wanted by u. S. Marshals, has now been caught in france, according to the associated press. He did uh forced himself on me and raped me and after he did that, he started crying said, im sorry. Like i didnt mean to hurt you. I didnt mean to hurt you. Did i hurt you . And then i said, yes, he hurt me. That is Shannon Keeler speaking to abc news. Three years ago. She said she was raped by cleary in her room after a frat party in 2013 at Gettysburg College in pennsylvania. She went to Campus Police and local authorities, but nothing was initially done and no charges filed. That was until keeler says cleary sent Facebook Messages to her admitting guilt. Police then reopened the case and put out an arrest warrant. Cleary is a saratoga native and Santa Clara University alum who allegedly had been on the run since those messages were made public three years ago. Its like you came to terms with that, that he did do it and his last few messages were, so i raped you. I wont do it to a girl ever again. I think the strength of that social Media Statement is going to carry the day to bring mr. Cleary back to the United States and have him set for trial, legal analyst Steven Clarke says that while it may seem odd that a message appearing to admit guilt was sent, it sometimes happens as people try to make amends. Keeler told the ap that after the incident, the then District Attorney said it was difficult to bring cases when alcohol is involved. Clarke, though, says that is no longer how things are done. They actually look at as a reason to bring a case because they say that if someone is not capable of consent, you cannot take advantage of them, even if they are intoxicated, clarke says. If this case eventually goes to trial, the defense would likely try to question the validity of the Facebook Messages. You did not see clearys picture in that story, as he has not yet officially been charged. His french lawyer appointed to represent him did not return phone messages on tuesday, according to the apa. As to if and when hell be returned to the United States. That is unknown at this time. I have reached out to multiple departments and agencies in pennsylvania for more information. Jr stone, abc seven news. What a story jr thanks very much. The encampment at uc berkeley is all packed up this evening after successful talks with the university. The University Says they reached an agreement to expedite what it calls a new socially responsible investment strategy. Demonstrators say theyre going to protest at the uc regents meeting at uc merced tomorrow, as other activists from across the state are doing. Uc regents have no plans to sell assets, despite the protesters demand that the universities divest the regents say tonight that the University System has 32 billion invested in companies that make weapons or support israel. Its very complicated, some of them are time commitments that weve made, and the students need to understand that. But we i think we need to do a better job at communicating that. At least one Committee Member says the board should consider protesters demands when looking at future investments. In the meantime, protesters at San Francisco state say theyve reached an agreement with the University Leadership tonight after more than two weeks of their encampment. They say the university has agreed to divest from weapons manufacturers and other similar groups. In the future, theyll give a formal News Conference tomorrow on campus about all of this. And in the south bay, a propalestinian rally was held at the encampment on the san jose state campus. It popped up yesterday and today the school warned students they need to take the tents down or they could face sanctions. The encampment is right near the statue of tommie smith and john carlos, who famously protested during a medal ceremony at the 1968 summer olympics.

But ahead of this years celebrations comes a new Public Service announcement from the fbi and department of Homeland Security. In it, a warning that foreign terrorist organizations like isis could target pride events around the country. Cameron pollan works with the fbis branch here in San Francisco. The Public Service announcement is definitely something new this year, the fbi says. As of now, there are no immediate, Credible Threats here in the bay area. However they are advising people to take precautions beyond the fbis warnings. San Francisco Pride executive director suzanne ford says sadly, threats against pride events are nothing new. Our organization for many, many years has worked with state, local, federal Law Enforcement agencies and other appropriate agencies to make sure our communities safe. The fbis psa has also gotten the attention of groups like equality california. The lgbtq nonprofit says they want everyone to be comfortable celebrating pride. This year.

Sandhya yeah umma, it is good sleeping weather tonight. Take a look at these live pictures and youll see what im talking about. Not so great commuting weather. The fog is causing lowered visibility across parts of the bay area, particularly in San Francisco. So lets take a look at your planner tomorrow morning. When you get going, watch out for dense fog. Temperatures in the 50s sunshine will be around the bay and inland by noontime, and it is going to be warmer inland in the afternoon mid 80s there upper 50s coast side. It will get breezy later on in the afternoon and evening. Ill be back to let you know what is changing as we head towards the weekend. Coming right up, dan. All right, very good. Sandy thank you. Happening now a city planning meeting is stretching late into the night, hoping to open the door to new farmworker housing in Half Moon Bay. And many, including governor newsom, recently say its a long time coming. The push comes after last years mass shooting, the deadliest in san mateo countys history, killed seven workers on multiple farms and exposed the poor Living Conditions that they are forced to live in. Weve been closely following this new housing push in our effort to build a better bay area. Abc seven News Reporter Lauren Martinez has more on this next step. Supporters to bring a Housing Project for farm workers packed the Planning Commission meeting in Half Moon Bay. The plan is to build a five story, 40 unit building here where a house at 555 kelly avenue sits. Its so exciting because they can walk next door if they go to church, or they can walk to the store, Belinda Hernandez arriaga, director of the group alas, is one of the applicants heading the project. The site would be a mix of housing for senior farm workers and include a resource center. Ive gone through a mix of emotions, everything from, you know, hope and just worry. Once the project hit the Planning Commission for review, it garnered more questions than answers. We never really talked about what the resources are. I dont really understand. Tuesday marked the three hours long meeting the commission discussed and questioned the project, so id like to understand what the meaning of local means. Is it city of Half Moon Bay boundaries for the farms related to the city of Half Moon Bay boundaries . Or does local mean all the farms along the coast side . So just just reassure me that your financing is not going to fall apart. The questions were asking are not about the importance of these services. Were trying to understand the land use. Thats where were going. On thursday, governor gavin newsom threatened potential legal action against the Half Moon Bay Planning Commission. Calling for a delay to vote is egregious. His support behind this specific project was huge for the applicants. It really falls in line with his promise he made to our farmworkers about a year and a half ago, when he came and met with them after the tragedy and said he was here, committed to housing, committed to better change. Before the meeting, we heard from Half Moon Bay residents Maria Carrillo and her sister martina on why this project is needed in such an expensive area. Yo tengo aqui desde la martina has lived in the area since 1984, and shes always had to share a living space with her children. A term she said at one point she lived with up to three couples with children in the meeting is still going on. Commissioners decided to extend the meeting until midnight. Right now, theyre still trying to decide on whether to approve the project. On certain conditions. Live from our san jose bureau, Lauren Martinez, abc seven news. Lauren, thank you so much. And the healing process for this Farmworker Community is far from over. But we are seeing change for the better. Our abc seven News Reporter, luz pena, put together an abc seven special after the shooting about the challenges farmworkers face with housing. Its called hidden crisis. Tragedy in Half Moon Bay.
