December 9, 2011 Occupy Boston Remains After Midnight Deadline ---------------------------------------------- Occupy Boston continues to stand after protesters defied a midnight deadline to evacuate their two-month old encampment. Scores of protesters remain in Boston's Dewey Park after police failed to move in when the deadline passed. The encampment's size shrunk however after hundreds of demonstrators voluntarily left to avoid the threat of arrest. Many of those departing the original encampment have set up a new site at Boston's Federal Reserve. .
