To: alt.magick From: bheidrick@aol.com (B Heidrick) Subject: Re: OTO raid (9410.otoraid.bh) Date: 49941005 Quoting: |me194@delphi.com (me 194) 93 |What became of the BPD raids on Thelema Lodge and Merkabah house a few |years ago? Did they compensate for damage, distress and the $880 in cash |missing? Were officers charged for illegal actions? All persons arrested had charges dropped --- combination of illegal search and clean drug tests. The Berkeley Police Review Commission held hearings and found several instances of false arrest. A Civil suit followed with the landlord at the Merkabah House location and the City of Berkeley paying $90,000 in settlement. For more details, log on to BaphoNet BBS in NJ and download the electronic back issues of the Thelema Lodge Calendar from late 1989 e.v. through most of 1990 e.v. --- file names TLC####.NWS. Several officers were re-assigned and at least one let go following the raid. The City of Berkeley Chief of Police announced his dated resignation, primarily as a result of a no-confidence vote by officers and other problems beside the O.T.O. raid. 93 93/93 Bill Heidrick (Named in the original search warrent; but not there, not arrested and mis-characterized as to height, weight, age and residence.)
