NEW YORK
In the latest round of demonstrations calling for corporate accountability, 16 Occupy Wall Street protesters were arrested in
front of the global headquarters of Goldman Sachs in lower Manhattan.
A New York Police Department spokesperson confirmed that nine men and seven women were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct
and resisting arrest.
The protest began with a mock trial of the giant investment firm at 10 a.m. in Zuccotti Park, the protesters\' base. During \"A People\'s Hearing
of Goldman Sachs,\" a group gathered to hear testimony from people who shared stories of how they were directly affected by Goldman Sachs\'
influence on financial markets. Civil rights activist and Princeton professor Cornel West also spoke at the panel, as did journalists Chris Hedges
and Nomi Prins.
