Since the occupy movement rocked oakland. 1. 3million being paid to protestors who claimed they were illegally detained for days after a nighttime confrontation with police in front of the y. They did not give the people they arrested an opportunity to leave. And they were kept at santa rita for as long as 3 1 2 days. Reporter its not even the biggest settlement. In july 2013 police paid 1. 7 million to protestors hit by beanbags fired by police. Last year the city paid out 4. 5 million to iraqi war vet scott olsen when he was hit knit head by a police canister. And now this latest one. Add in the estimated 2. 5 million that the city paid on Police Overtime and thats 9. 4 million and counting it boggles the mind. Yes. We have a lot of other things id prefer we spend money on. Its here. Thats a lot of money. It was a wasteful expense for the city of oakland. Im so committed to never having to go through that again. Reporter now, since then the police have tightened up on their crowd tactics but that led to criticism that we wind up, the demonstrators, attacking businesses more easily. As for businesses, heres a bit of an irony, veronica. They cant sue. Theres no law that says if they arent protected they can claim damages. Thank you. More demonstrations being planned for this friday and monday. They have the best record in the nba. They could win their 15th straight game against the heat and its the 100th consecutive home sellout for the golden state warriors. Will that fan base follow when the team moves across the bay . If these are the warriors best of times, its important to remember the worst of times. It was like an empty cave in the remodel in 1996. For 1 years Tony Christopher is one of the extremely loyal season ticketholders. And from 98 to 02 they never had more than 21 wins. So it wasnt hard to get them. Reporter and you Better Believe the Warriors Front Office realizes loyalty is not a slamdunk. A special level of fan support that these fans bring every night through a lot of good years and then through a lot of bad years. Reporter tonights 100th consecutive sellout, while it might not come close to the numbers put up by the bulls, celtics and lakers, it is quite an achievement for the warriors. And now with a team on the verge of building a new 18,000 seat 600 million arena in San Franciscos Mission bay area, will fans follow across the bridge . To some people, it might be an obstacle. How do you take those fans with you . The good news is we are the bay areas team. San francisco has been our home. San jose has been our home. And oakland has been our home.

Reporter rick wells says the San Francisco 49ers have given them a few pointers about moving a bay area team. The 49ers have been an amazing partner to us in helping us through the process. Reporter its a process too for the season ticketholders. How much the prices are going up . Right now its 2015, the arena opens in three years. I dont know. I would love to, i have young kids, so my entertainment dollar is thinner than it used to be but i would love to follow them but i dont know if i will be able to. Reporter the warriors say they capped the number of season tickets sold to keep some available for every home game. Keep in mind the new arena is going to have 1500 fewer seats than oracle. That means if the team keeps the number of season tickets the same, there will be fewer per game tickets for sale, too,. New video just into the newsroom capturing history in the making in yosemite.

Tonight, a big Bay Area School district is reporting some good results with a new approach to discipline. Instead of punishing students, they are forcing them to face their issues head on. Ann notarangelo is in oakland tonight to tell us how it all works. Reporter allen, suspensions at this middle school are down considerably. This year so far they have only had four. Last year at this time, they already had 14. And the principal here says its in part due to a program called Restorative Justice. We like start out with a checking question. Reporter i sat down with six peer mediators at Edna Brewer Middle School who showed me how Restorative Justice works. Instead of the knee jerk reaction of suspending a student for Something Like fighting they are sent to a circle. We bring the two people in the room along with witnesses that seen the fight to say their side of what happened. Reporter they also deal with bullying and social media issues. People are willing to talk about it. Last year we had a conflict where two people got in a fight and to this day i see like them hanging around each other. Reporter oakland unified says its working district wise. After 10 years of gradual implementation the district released its first report that points to results. Creating a sense of community at schools has dropped absenteeism, increased reading levels and reduce dropout rates. Its also more fair. Clearly we see suspension rates going down and, in fact, we have even seen racially disproportionate discipline of africanamericans eliminated in some of our schools. Reporter a researcher sat in on the interview as this form of discipline gets national attention. The principal says the bottom line. Punishing the bad out of kids doesnt work. Reporter but its not necessarily touchy feeley either. Its more difficult than being punished to sit across in a circle from the person you harmed. Reporter they dont see many repeat offenders maybe because what students learn in the circle they are using in the halls. They get to understand what they did wrong and what the other person did wrong. They get to come up with agreements of what they can do better. Reporter the schools across the bay area are implementing their own Restorative Justice program. Here in oakland, 27 of the 86 schools in the district are already participating. And they plan next year to expand into more elementary schools. In oakland, ann notarangelo, kpix 5.

When these predators eat the rodents, they too get these chemicals inside them that cause them to bleed out. So theres one right there. Reporter she showed us how common rat poison traps r there were two outside this santa cruz fastfood restaurant. Rats enter the traps, eat the poison, get sick, slow, becoming an easy meal for bigger animals although rodents and bobcats are often seen around campus ucsanta cruz says the poison must be coming from an offcampus source. We dont use this kind of poison. We take an exclusion first approach when it comes to, um, dealing with pests. Im so sad about it. And im also outraged.

Its kind of like even climbers are at a loss for words how difficult this route is. Reporter and then theres the art of the free climb meaning they never used a rope to pull themselves up. They are not allowed to use metal or any other gear other than their hands and feet to climb those sections in between the anchor points of the pitches. Reporter so add it all up.

Stories about quiet heroes who show that one person really can make a big difference in our community. Quiet heroes, thats true. Tonight kate kelly and sharon chin have an update on our very first recipients. Reporter we are at Eastside College Preparatory School in East Palo Alto home of Principal Chris bischof. And a lot has changed in the 10 years since he won the very first jefferson award we profiled in the bay area. But one thing has stayed the same and thats that every east side graduate makes it to a fouryear college. In 1996, East Palo Alto didnt even have a high school. So chris cofounded eastside as a private College Prep School for sixth through 12th grade. His first class convened at a park bench. Defense, one, two, three reporter when i met him in 2004, there were 100 students. Today that number has tripled. Each gets a scholarship. There are nearly 500 alumni most of them their familys First College graduate. Its been exciting to see but its still, you know, once you see it you still kind of have to pinch yourself a little bit. Reporter when we first profiled chris a decade ago the school was using portable classrooms. Since then, they have raised 18 million to build this new campus. One of the highlights is this theater. Its the only one in East Palo Alto and its open to other Community Youth groups outside of the school. Another big difference, about 100 students now live at the school along with 10 faculty members. Dormitories offer a supportive place to live and study. Chris himself still lives on campus. Many of our students refer to the school not as Eastside School but the eastside family. Reporter and the family focus has expanded. The goal . Not only to get kids to college but make sure they succeed in college and beyond. Cofounder and vice principal helen kim says chris leads the wayne. With all of the progress that weve made, the successes of all the graduating classes that weve had, he always has a sense of, we can do better. Reporter one new thing theyre doing is having alumni serve as mentors. Franklin matthews is an eastside graduate who has come full circle. I grew up around drugs, gangs, a lot of violence. Reporter but chris helped him fulfill his goal to become the first in his family to graduate from college. I can call him at any moment, 3 00 in the morning, email exchange, and he has always been there for me since day one. Reporter when i met franklin was attending sonoma state. He is now head coach of Girls Basketball at woodside priory. His wife is eastside weekend dorm supervisor so they live on campus. Franklin himself now a role model. I think the biggest thing that ive learned from chris is giving back. This campus that you see today is really a dream come true. Reporter he learned what can happen when you start small and dream big. Chris says theres a waiting list to move into the eastside dormitory. It has room for 60 more students but the school needs for faculty living in the dorm more faculty living in the dorm to supervisor them. In 2004 it was an acre of land and its now five acres. A lot can happen in five years. A lot of changes. Speaking of changes after 31 years of reporting and anchoring at channel 5 i have decided to add more flexibility to my life so im retiring. Sharon is going to continue to bring you our weekly stories. Ill stay involved with the steering committee.

Nowhere man jim tomsula will quickly become someone. The 49ers longtime defensive line coach is Jim Harbaughs successor and will be introduced at a press Conference Tomorrow. The Team President said this. Jim tomsula clearly is the right man to lead this team. Jim is a great teacher and a tremendous mentor who conducts himself with great class and integrity. Last two words interesting. Tomsulas first task will be finding new assistants. Defensive coordinator vic fangio will not return after being passed over for tomsula. He also needs an offensive coordinator to replace roman. He has a good feel for the locker room. Not saying that coach harbaugh didnt because i felt like he did, as well. But, um, i dont think coach tomsula will be as tough as coach harbaugh was. At least its a smooth transition. Raiders have reportedly agreed to a fouryear deal with former broncos defensive coordinator jack del rio. He is a hayward high alum and played 11 seasons in the nfl. Del rio has been a head coach before spending nine seasons in jacksonville but here in oakland he will have his own rooting section including his parents who have been raider season ticketholders. I speak to my boys back in hayward, theyre thrilled. I was talking to jacks best friend this morning, he said he couldnt even speak. So its huge excitement, huge buzz in the bay area. Suarez grew up with del rio. They were classmates at hayward high and even won a sectional title game at the coliseum. But their relationship goes back even further when del rio made quite a first impression. In third grade we played north ymca which is what we did back then group flag football. I was a better player on my team. I picked out the biggest guy on the team and im going to hit him the first play and go from there. So i run at him full speed as hard as i can. I hit him and i hit the ground and might as well hit a tree trunk. I was wearing a number 44 jersey and he looked down at me and said smiled and said good hit, 44, and kept going. And then i knew he was a man amongst boys. Jack del rio the new raider head coach. The bills wrapped up their coaching search when they hired rex ryan who wasted no time making his presence felt in buffalo. This thing on . [ laughter ] because its getting ready to be on and thats the truth. I know its been, you know, 15 years since the bills made a playoffs. Well get ready, man, were going. Ryan didnt stop there. He also defended his new offensive coordinator greg roman who 49ers fans often blamed for the teams offensive struggles. Never seen a guy get criticized more than greg roman for going to three championship games. You know . He is an out standing coach. We have the exact same philosophy. Were locked in line. Last night on this show, we took it on the road for the Bruce Mahoney game where Sacred Heart Cathedral at st. Ignatius definitely lived up to the hype. Five seconds left, brown for the win how about it. Comcast Hometown Network dave lewis on the call amare brown capped off the come back for the irish and kept the wildcats from winning the first mahoney trophy. Safe to say is that maybe the highlight of your young basketball career . Um, so far, id say yes. Yes, it is. When it left your hands, no doubt . No doubt. It was going in. Great moments for sacred heart. I said to kate kelly who will make the eggnog from now you tell us what you want to pay and we help find options to fit your budget.
