New Court Documents Released in James Izumizaki Molestation Case

The Contra Costa Times reports that the documents reveal new details about allegations against the Albany Middle School teacher, who committed suicide in September.

According to the Contra Costa Times:

Former Albany Middle School teacher and coach James Izumizaki exchanged thousands of flirtatious text messages, photos and videos with an underage student while committing lewd and lascivious acts, according to court documents unsealed Thursday.

Albany Patch's coverage of the case

The documents are arrest and search warrants that had been sealed. The Times said it filed a motion last month in Alameda County Superior Court to have the documents unsealed. The documents redact names and other details that might identify the molestation victim. The Times did not include the documents on its web site when it published its article Thursday.

A Sacramento attorney, Bob Wilson, told the Times that he represents multiple victims of Izumizaki. He said the police investigation of the case has not concluded. Police would not comment.

Another example of more balanced reporting from Berkeleyside article:Read More http://www.berkeleyside.com/2013/05/17/uc-berkeley-seeks-funds-to-cut-down-22000-non-native-trees/. Some of the comments are useful especially about glyphosphate. The author of the article even used his own name.

The source cited in this announcement states up to 1,400 gallons of herbicide possibly includingRead More Roundup might be used rather than 14,000 gallons of Roundup will be used. Not that I am in favor of dosing the environment with petrochemicals, but I do like to make decisions based on facts. I also have to wonder about the accuracy of the source given that it is an opinion piece rather than an article.

And now for the more balanced reporting: "But U.C. Berkeley wants to remove most of its 22,000Read More eucalyptus and acacia trees, then restore native species like they did in the Claremont Canyon." From this article: http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/east_bay&id=9107025
