opening statements on different days. what that means is that whether 22-year-old jose montano and 20-year-old marcelles peter go on trial, they will be hearing different stories in the beginning. both juries will hear much of the same testimony about what happened that night. prosecutors say the girl, who was drunk and going in and out of consciousness, was beaten and raped by a group of men and teenagers. while at least 20 people watched this attack go on for quite some time in a courtyard of richmond high school after a school dance. the defendants are accused of the same crime but at certain times, evidence will only be admission i belie admissible to one of them. the bulk of the testimony will be heard together, including the victims. >> she literally has to relive the events of that night. you don't want to make her do that twice. it is bad enough to have her do it once. now, the last dual jury

trial in contra costa county was in 2010. that involved a violent street gang. this rape case is really complex, which is why it has taken so long to come to trial. four other defendants, two reached plea deals. two others are awaiting trial dates. this trial starts this afternoon and is expected to last at least six weeks. are t . >> reporter: reporting live, christie smith, "today in the bay." a bay area police department sending more officers out to a middle school after someone left a threatening message on campus. police say there will be increased presence at pleasanton middle school. the school says a threat was discovered written on the wall in the girl's bathroom. pleasanton middle school telling parents they have been notified of extra patrol and administrators are investigating that threat. >> the oakland police department will hold a news conference to talk about the violence plaguing the city.

county alone. >> we are most concerned that people that have this brand of frozen berries in their freezer don't eat it. throw it away. if they have eaten it, particularly in the past 14 days, we are asking people to contact their health care provider to find out if they can get a shot to protect themselves from hepatitis a. >> symptoms usually don't show until 2-6 weeks after exposure. symptoms include fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, jaundice and fatigue. how did this end up in the bags of berries? transmitted by a food handler. to fight accusations, company was the ringleader to raise electronic book prices, a fight that even the judge things

they will lose. they were so convinced this case was doomed in court, penguin settled for $75 million. apple is going into court this morning and it dates back to steve jobs and the introduction of the ipad. apple started offering electronic books to take on amazon and kindle. amazon had priced every book at $9.99. publishers had little choice. amazon had the only practical reader. it wanted electronic books to be cheap so it could sell for kindles. steve jobs proposed a different pricing scheme. throw in with apple and see if we can all make a go of this to create a real mainstream e books market at $12.99 and $14.99. apple's current ceo told the wall street journal he doesn't see what all the fuss is about,

considering amazon had a lock on the market at the time. why is apple fighting a case that seems doomed? none of its partners is willing to go to court with it. the company may be concerned if it settles in this case, the condition of that settlement would be for apple to change the way it determines prices on everything, on itunes and the app store. it all comes down to apple's entire business model. they got everything riding on this even if the judge herself says she thinks the company is going to lose. >> so apple really doesn't want to set that precedents. 5:47. let's check back in with meteorologist, christina loren. beautiful weekend. kind of a cool start to today. cooler start to the day means a cooler afternoon. jon, welcome back to you. good morning, to you, marla. alcatraz island, beautiful start to the day. koit tower, not a whole lot of ripples out here on the bay. now, if you want to point out, that thick fog is starting to roll in.

last monday or the very end of the month until we hear more. what this court says typically it could have a big effect on what other states do now that there are other states that have started to legalize same-sex marriage as well. there was another case that was linked to this, the defensive marriage act. california looking at state laws. the defensive marriage act looking at the federal government, one man, one woman marriage act and how that affects federal benefits, the person suing got a huge bill from the irs after her partner died and their marriage in new york was not recognized. so we wait to see what the court is going to say on both of those. not to mention voting rights and affirmative action. lots of cases still out there. nbc news will have a reporter and camera inside the court when the ruling, whenever that is released.
