At 9:30am, March 29, the Ravenwood 7 entered Judge Theresa Johnson's court to be arraigned. Jake Allen, Crescenzo Scipione, Emily Good, Ryan Gromkoski, and Zora Gussow were all charged with trespassing and obstruction of government administration in the second degree. They were accused of blocking the path of the movers and the marshal from evicting Catherine Lennon from her home at 9 Ravenwood Ave. on or about 10:30am, March 28.
Jake Spezio and Liz Rich were both charged with disorderly conduct/refusal to move. Spezio was arrested after cutting a corner on a police line, while crossing the street and Rich, one of Lennon's 70 year old neighbors, was arrested after refusing to move along on a public sidewalk after police told her to do so. Both arrests happened within minutes of each other at or around 11am on March 28.
Dianne Russell represented the seven in court for the arraignment. All plead not guilty. Judge Johnson told the Ravenwood 7 that they were not allowed at 9 and 10 Ravenwood Ave.
The Ravenwood 7 will be back in Judge Johnson's court, with their attorneys, on April 1 at 11am.
