Judge orders NYC To Release Protesters
Republicans neared the end of a four-day run as State Supreme Court Justice John Cataldo ordered the city to release 470 protesters, some of whom have been in jail for nearly three days. The judge also fined the city $1,000 for every protester held past the deadline he set for their release. Authorities had blamed the sheer volume of detainees — more than 1,700 arrests have been made — for the slow pace of court processing.

1. Yay! Power to the people!
They were held for 3 days without processing? Disgraceful, but expected.
