Christopher Wilson, the kid who was driving the getaway car in the strange shooting of Dartmouth student Meleia Willis-Starbuck in Berkeley after a confrontation with several Cal football players this summer pled no contest to felony accessory to murder, and will testify against shooter Christopher Hollis. Wilson faces up to three years in prison. The facts of the situation that night get murkier and murkier, with people saying that Willis-Starbuck was "amped" and that she announced "That's my little brother right there" as the first shot was fired. For his part, Wilson says Hollis proudly said, "I just scared them cats away" after they took off, not realizing that he had shot his friend.
Folks who can't just let the past be the past up in Marin -- a recently-graduated senior from San Marin High school pled guilty to causing $140,000 damage to his alma mater by turning on all the fire hydrants and releasing about a million gallons of water, which flooded the library, while another man was arrested for violating a stay-away order and kidnapping his ex-girlfriend on the campus of Dominican College in San Rafael. Fellas, you just gotta move on!
And a man quietly eating an early lunch on Pier 28 (probably at Red's Java House) on Wednesday morning looked out over the beautiful blue bay and saw.... a floating dead body. Aaaaagh! Authorities are trying to identify the body, a 5'8" male weighing 175 pounds and approximately 25-40 years old.
