When the case seemed cold, homicide detectives in the Berkeley Police Department received an unexpected tip about the 2006 shooting death of Wayne Drummond, Jr. As a result, two men were arrested.

Police have charged Berkeley resident Brandon Crowder, 20, and Richmond resident Nicholas Beaudreaux, 22, with the murder of 23-year-old Drummond, who died on the steps of UC Berkeley sorority, said Berkeley police Sgt. Mary Kusmiss.

The defense attorney for a man accused of shooting and killing three in-laws during a Thanksgiving dinner last year was in court today to subpoena e-mail evidence from Yahoo, according to an attorney on the other side.

Deputy District Attorney John Jay said public defender Ray Plumhoff was attempting today to obtain e-mails from the internet giant, who has refused to hand them over. Plumhoff is defending Asmeron Gebreselassie, 44, on charges that the defendant opened fire into a crowd of in-laws at the dinner after being let in by his brother, Tewodros Gebreselassie, 40, who is also facing murder charges.

Special circumstances clauses attached to the charges could bring the death penalty.

Jay said since he did not need to be present, he left shortly into the hearing. Plumhoff did not return calls this afternoon.
