5:02 pm
why many people wondered if the shooting was related to the protest. this is upper haas school of business that is where the shooting occurred, this is where the occupy protesters set up shop. this is the plaza where the protests have been going on sort of the south end of campus. as you can see as we fly over, it is less than half a mile from where thesshooting took place. based on the proximity, you can see why people wondered, but the officials say that the shooting and the protests are unrelated. >>catherine: hundreds of students and protesters have joined in a strike date. these were scenes from last week during the occupy cal movement. this is the scene that the officers trying to clear the camp at that point. j.r. stone joins us

5:04 pm
clothing similar to what we saw yesterday. i have been here this afternoon and others have been on that march. kron4 jeff bush was on that and has more to follow in this story. >>reporter: here on telegraph avenue near 20th street the group of protesters have been marching for about half an hour. they started at about 2:45 p.m. at frank ogawa plaza and headed up telegraph ave. they are on their way up to uc-berkeley wanted to show support for the occupy movement there. i estimate there are about 500 protesters may be a little more or a little less walking through the street. what is different about this is that the police are escorting the protesters. there are motorcycle officers in the front and in the back. when the motorcycle officers come to an intersection they stop the traffic so that those marching can move on. >>catherine: people packed into sproul plaza supporting
5:05 pm
the strike. maureen kelly talk with students at skipped class to show their support. >> this is what it should look like every day on this campus. is this not beautiful? >>reporter: more than 1000 people most appearing to be cal students echoed what they were protesting against. >> on police brutality, the cost of public education, the privatization of everything. >>reporter: the occupy cal organizers called on students and professors to boycott their classes on tuesday in support of the movement. some educators decided to hold their class's outside on the plaza in solidarity. many of the faces that you see are students who did not go to
5:06 pm
class, not to play hooky but to stand up to fight what they believe is wrong. >> when i see police officers beating my friends and colleagues i think it is important for us to come out and show that we cannot support that. >> this movement is the poor for my future, the future of my little brother and my kids. i think i deserve to have an affordable education and raise their fees it is going to hurt. >>catherine: here is what some students had to say heading to and from class. >> i am not going to miss class. i do care. >>pam: i guess the movement, it's died down a little more and then everyone is thinking let us get back to business because it is close to final. you have to do what you have to do. >>pam: i have to get good

5:08 pm
we did that. so we would much rather see that money go towards services than paying police overtime. >>reporter: the $2.4 million estimate for the occupy oakland protest cost is not include pay for police overtime to remove the campers on two separate occasions. >> i think that there were clearly mistakes made going in letting people go back. >>reporter: she says outside of monday's planned evacuation of the plaza, dipping into the fund to cover real emergencies is why the reserve capital was there. >> it is used for a earthquakes, fires, or some unexpected expense. you do not build in massive demonstrations least time. >>catherine: the oakland mayor jean quan is facing continued criticism for her handling of occupy oakland. she has had a number of news conferences in the last month, she is accused of flip flopping on issues and stumbling through some of the question and answer

5:10 pm
very badly. the reality is when you are the mayor you have no excuse and no twist but to make the decisions. >>reporter: in addition he said that he has some real concerns about the city's finances especially how the mayor plans to explain to our working residence of oakland the money shelled out to pay for occupy oakland. >>reporter: 1 is the belief of speech and the right to demonstrate, but not at the expense of the people this is costing taxpayers millions of dollars. the $2.4 million is just the beginning. >>reporter: right this moment he tells us that he is not planning on putting forth to the full city council a vote of no- confidence pertaining to the mayor would that could always change. >> if any council member wishes to introduce a resolution for a no- confidence vote, it will

6:54 pm
locker room. in 1998, now in 2000 a janitress sees him with a child of using them sexually and in 2002 that is when a query start. so how else would he be able to say that he did not do any of these things. he has eye witnesses. >>gary: all we wanted you to use your legal expertise on this if he would jerk i would do allow him to do it? >> absolutely not and i did not think his attorney did any better because he was sitting there in the nile on supposedly everything he was charged with. >>gary: if you were his attorney and there will always be someone there to represent somebody was the best that you could shoot for with him? >> he will have to make a plea, because he is going down. the civil action will be brought and there is no way he can win this.

>>gary: a lot of people may get edgy when i say this, but since supposedly he claims that he only knew limited doings with sandusky about this do you think that joe paterno has been treated fairly in the press? >> joe paterno was told about this thing from mc creary i did not think that joe paternal did enough to us by telling his bosses. he should have done something as a moral responsibility. he is a head coach for 45 years, come on his responsibility to the school, to children just like what happened with the priest. they protected their own, but they did not care about the children. >>gary: if you are joe paterno attorney and we imagine that people will come after him in civil court what is your defense so to speak?
6:56 pm
>> first of all it is not really relevant because it will be a civil case, but there is no state law requiring people other than to tell their bosses. now, the question is did joe paternal have a boss that he controlled? he told the president, he told the athletic director but the problem is in that state of pennsylvania there is no law that says you have to call the police. 40 states haven't and they--40 states have it, and they're screaming out to have that changed. >>gary: give me this figure, penn state is liable by the time is over to pay off some of these lawsuits, how much? >> $5 million i would guess, at least. the liability in this case would be consuming abuse. they did nothing about it even though
