Yes they are. I just found out that police arrested three custodians, all OUSD employees. I’m writing the story now, so stay tuned.

The news conference has turned out to be a phantom one. We were told this weekend it would be at the school, and then an administrator today said the news conference would be held elsewhere. Regardless, I believe they are on to something.

Thanks for the tip, Ted. I hadn’t heard anything about a press conference, so I called Troy Flint to ask about it.

Flint said the school district didn’t hold a news conference about the case. He wouldn’t comment on whether a custodian’s house was searched, saying only that the investigation was continuing. He said there might be more details soon.

Maybe someone else held a news conference. Any idea who?

An Oakland High custodian’s house was searched this weekend and at least one stolen school computer was recovered. I believe there was a news conference about it today.

Where’s the story? I think we’re about to uncover something big. I’ve had stuff taken from my room for years. I’m not surprised at all
