Show Notes
Thirty-three pro-Palestinian activists, part of Students United for Palestinian Equality and Return UW, faced court this week over a building takeover at the University of Washington. They pleaded not guilty to criminal trespassing charges, stemming from a May 2021 occupation of the engineering building. The group demanded the university sever ties with Boeing, which supplies equipment to Israels military. Prosecutors dropped potential felony charges due to weak evidence. Most defendants entered pleas on Wednesday, with a few still pending next month. Some now face stay-away orders from the engineering building or campus.
