County prosecutors in Washington state cut deal with anti-Israel 'UW33,' accused of causing $1 million in damage at University of Washington
If the defendants fulfill the terms of the agreements with the prosecutors, they will not serve jail time, stand trial or pay fines.
King County prosecutors have reached agreements with 33 individuals, known as the "UW33," who were accused of first-degree criminal trespass and causing $1 million in damage during an anti-Israel protest at the University of Washington's Interdisciplinary Engineering Building in May 2025. Under these stipulated orders of continuance, charges will be dismissed after 12 months if the defendants complete community service and avoid new legal violations. The agreements do not constitute guilty pleas, but defendants must stipulate to the accuracy of police reports. If terms are violated, agreements could be revoked, leading to a stipulated bench trial. The "UW33," members of the now-unrecognized student group SUPER-UW, were arrested after occupying the building and demanding the university sever ties with Boeing. The university had initially suspended 23 students involved but later reinstated them.
