FULL INTERVIEW: Prosecutors charge 33 people for trespassing in UW IEB occupation

Описание: The King County Prosecutor’s Office has charged 33 people with criminal trespass related to the occupation of the Interdisciplinary Engineering Building at the University of Washington, but stopped short of accusing anyone of vandalism and the destruction inside.

The charges were filed on Tuesday, more than 300 days after the incident in May 2025.

UW had accused the group that called itself “Super UW” of breaking into the IEB, spray-painting the inside, and damaging new equipment. The occupation lasted several hours before officers physically removed 33 people.

In an interview with the case’s prosecutors, they explained the charging decision and how they declined to pursue felony charges.
