Court order: City can’t keep Occupy Wall Street protesters and their stuff out of Zuccotti Park

Hours after baton-wielding cops cleared Occupy Wall Street protesters and their tents from
Zuccotti Park, a judge signed a order Tuesday saying the demonstrators can return with their stuff.
Mayor Bloomberg said the city was trying to clarify the restraining order signed by Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Lucy Billings, a former civil liberties lawyer.
In the meantime, Zuccotti — which briefly reopened after a quick
scrub-down — would be closed to the public, Bloomberg said.

“That was my home,” said Shane Stoops, 23, an occupier from Seattle who said he had been at Zuccotti since the dawn of the protest Sept. 17.
“You see all those garbage trucks? That’s where I live now. They took my life ... all my clothes, my four-man tent and mattress, all of my books and three years of drawings.”
