Yesterday, the 415 twosome, the only one's actually charged with anything, met up in court to once again enter their pleas. This time around, the second member of the 415 Gang, Brian Dwyer entered a plea of not guilty to charges he kicked the living sh-- out of one of the Yalies. The kid, Brian Dwyer, is charged with assault and battery and if found guilty and if actually sent to jail for all of this, could face seven years in prison. Yikes-- if we were Dwyer, we'd be totally freaked out right about now as this all came from one bad, drunken decision. The other one, Richard Aicardi, entered his plea of not guilty on March 8th. ...

And here's your latest on Gleegate-- -One of the of the 415 Gang who was charged is in police custody, that being Brian Dwyer who surrendered to the police. He is said to have admitted to kicking one of the Yalies while he was on the ground with the intention to hurt him. The ringleader of the 415 Gang, Richard Aicardi, hasn't gone to the police yet but is telling everyone that the whole thing is more complicated than it comes off as and that he was acting in self-defense. In fact, his whole call to his "20 strong" (we see a sequel to 300 in which twenty local Catholic school boys hold off a horde of glee club members, sacrificing themselves to save San Francisco from acapella groups) because he thought he needed back up to save him from a possible glee club attack. He did admit, however, that he threw a couple of "haymakers" and for those who don't know what a haymaker is, according to the Urban Dictionary, a "haymaker" is a an exceptionally loud, resounding fart. Hmmm... maybe we grabbed the wrong definition there. On the other hand, going around viciously farting on people could be seen as assault. ...

Believe it or not, two people were charged today in the Baker's Dozen New Year's eve melee. The two people charged were Richard Aicardi and Brian Dwyer. Aicardi, the instigator and the one who gave us the such classic lines as "this is the 415" and "I'm 20 deep, my boys are coming" is being charged with two counts of felony assault and one count of battery. Dwyer is being charged with felony assault and battery. The two were charged for the beat down of singers Evan Gogel and William Baile. As for Sharyar Aziz Jr., the one who got his jaw broken, nobody has been charged yet for what happened to him. Police say they don't have enough evidence to convict anyone for what happened. ...

As expected, the beating up of members of the Bakers Dozen acapella group is now a full blown story with all the breathless reporting and graphics that comes with it. It's even gone national with Drudge reporting that the singers were beaten up "after singing the Star Spangled Banner" as if we here in San Francisco are so anti-American that we'll beat anyone up who sings the National Anthem. ...

How did you ring in the new year? Here's an expansion on a blotter item that SFist Rita wrote about this morning: According to eyewitnesses, the 19-year-old son of the staggeringly wealthy local physician Eileen Aicardi spent it by gathering a mob of friends and then gaybashing an all-male singing group from Yale. When the assault was over, there were bruises, cuts, sprains, and facial reconstruction surgery requiring the wiring shut of the victim's......
