World3 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported7m ago
Felony vandalism charges against twelve Stanford pro-Palestinian protesters have been dismissed following an agreement with the attorney general. The dismissal concludes a legal case that previously resulted in a mistrial in February after a jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict.
The original charges stemmed from protests held at Stanford University involving pro-Palestinian demonstrators. The resolution through the attorney general's office brings an end to the prosecution of the twelve individuals who were initially facing felony counts.
