Who didn't Bobby Brown allegedly stab?

The suspect in the knifing of a sleeping student on the J-Church -- and, it turns out, an alleged stab-a-thon of other cases -- will be arraigned at 9 a.m. today and charged with 15 counts that could lead to a prison term of 72 years to life.

According to District Attorney Kamala Harris, if you've been stabbed in San Francisco of late, it may well have been by Brown. In addition to the J-Church stabbing, Brown is accused of knifing 11-year-old Hatim Mansori on the 49 back on Sept. 1, a highly publicized and unnerving incident; stabbing a 25-year-old woman on Nov. 14 at Sutter and Jones who didn't give him money; and also stabbing a 26-year-old woman on Leavenworth and Golden Gate as she went on an evening stroll with her three children. Brown is also suspected in other cases as well.

Both the Chronicle and Examiner highlight Brown's extensive history of lawlessness, with the Ex going so far as to unroll the popular "criminal history timeline" feature.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
