VENTURA COUNTY, Calif. - A California State University, Channel Islands professor who was arrested last week during an immigration raid on a cannabis farm in Camarillo appeared in court Monday and was released on bond. What we know: Jonathan Anthony Caravello, was detained by federal agents during a protest at Glass House Farms on Thursday, July 10. According to the CSUCI's staff directory, Caravello is a lecturer in the math department.
In a statement, U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said Caravello was arrested for allegedly throwing a tear gas canister at law enforcement during the raid.
"He is charged with a violation of 18 USC 111 and will have a court appearance tomorrow," he posted on Sunday, July 13.
During a court hearing Monday in downtown Los Angeles, U.S. Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero ordered Caravello be released on a $15,000 bond and scheduled his arraignment for Aug. 1. No plea was taken.

The professor is out on bail...He needs to report to the federal court on August 1...He has not said anything after he got released...Maybe his lawyer told him to keep quiet...
Is his case an "easy" prosecution? I am not sure...He is probably going to claim that he was trying to help out the protestor in the wheelchair...Tear gas canister, shot by ICE, ended near the wheelchair...He might claim that he did not intend to attack agents...Maybe the some jury might buy his story...
Statement by his university was silly...About First Amendment...Come on...ICE agents will not arrest some professor because he told them that they are "bad people"...
Why was he there?
To teach a class!...................
Ahhh,
( I’m my best Maxwell Smart get smart TV show accent )
The ol academic wheelchair alibi trick .
Missed it by that much.

He doesn’t look strong enough to lift a tear gas canister.
People who work near Glass House Farms shouldn’t throw stones....or tear gas canisters.
It seems like false advertising for CSUCI to be on the mainland.
> Caravello is a lecturer in the math department <
Well, that’s a bit of a surprise. I expected a humanities professor. STEM folks usually have more important things to do.
Oh, well. I guess the rot has spread out.
PENCIL NECK GEEK
Back when I was a kid, life was going swell
'Til something happened, blew everything to hell
That night my daddy stumbled in, all pale and weak
Said "A woman up the block just gave birth to a geek."
Mom said, "Sell it to the circus, what the heck!"
Dad said, "Nope, this one's a pencil neck
And if there's one thing lower than a sideshow freak
It's a grit eatin', scum suckin', pencil neck geek."
You see, if you take a pencil that won't hold lead
Looks like a pipe cleaner attached to a head
Add a buggy whip body with a brain that leaks
You got yourself a grit eatin', pencil neck geek
[Chorus]
Pencil neck geek, grit eatin' freak
Scum suckin', pea head with a lousy physique
He's a one man, no gut, losing streak
Nothin' but a pencil neck geek
(Pencil neck geek, ooh…)
Soon, the geeks were poppin' up all over town
You couldn't hardly sneeze without knockin' one down
After a nice juicy steak, if you need a toothpick
Just reach for a geek — they'll do the trick
One day we cut one up for fish bait
Learned our lesson just a little bit late
Soon as the geek hit the drink, the water turned red
Next day, sure enough, all the fish were dead
[Chorus]
Pencil neck geek, grit eatin' freak
Scum suckin', pea head with a lousy physique
He's a one man, no gut, losing streak
Nothin' but a pencil neck geek
Most any night you know where I can be found
Yeah, stomping some geek's head into the ground
So keep the faith, 'cause in Blassie you can trust
I won't give up 'til the last geek bites the dust
[Chorus]
Pencil neck geek, grit eatin' freak
Scum suckin', pea head with a lousy physique
He's a one man, no gut, losing streak
Nothin' but a pencil neck geek
(Pencil neck geek…)
(Pencil neck geek…)
They say, "these geeks come a dime a dozen."
(Pencil neck geek…)
I'm lookin' for the guy who's supplyin' the dimes
(Pencil neck geek…)
It's gonna be real hard times for all of these
(Pencil neck, ooh…)
Grit eatin', scum suckin'
Boot lickin', drop kickin'
Gut grindin', nail bitin'
Glue sniffin', scab pickin'
Butt scratchin', egg hatchin'
Sleazy, smelly, pepper bellied
Dirty, lousy, rotten, stinkin', freaks!
Nothing but a pencil neck geek
Pencil neck geek
Pencil neck geek
Pencil neck geek…
Ew. 100% guilty. Yuck.
I know. Those people have no shame.
It gets me to musing about where in 2025 a fellow with a mug like that could otherwise find gainful employment but in one of American's many exalted institutions of higher learning.
