King County public defender among 30 arrested after Antifa occupation of University of Washington building
The Post Millennial ^ | 5/6/25 | Katie Daviscourt and Ari Hoffman

Posted on 05/06/2025 4:36:21 PM PDT by CFW

On Monday, authorities arrested more than 30 individuals who seized and occupied the Interdisciplinary Engineering Building at the University of Washington to protest Israel and its war against Hamas terrorists. Among those arrested was a King County public defender and several affiliates of the left-wing extremist group Antifa. All of them were booked into local jails on criminal trespassing charges, with a bail set at $1,000, according to records.

It's unclear if the apprehended individuals were students and/or outside agitators. The King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office said in a statement that more than two dozen protesters have been charged with gross misdemeanor offenses, and several of them have had initial court appearances. The majority of the protesters have already been released from custody, jail records show.

The University of Washington campus police released the names of the individuals who were taken into custody, identifying them as: Cade Jackson; Catherine Marie Brown; Claire "Jamie" Elizabeth Berger; Jonas Simms Piper; Brett Anthony Anton; Ricardo Colon-Galvez; Ty Olson Park; Lucy Belle Zern; Tayler Christine Hart; Kimaya Mahajan; Lea Keating; Roberta Lee Collison; Jade Chen Wu; Julia Claire Fraczek; Luisa Guadalupe Ortega Subdiaz; Yafate Yared; Ella Chenai Tunduwani; Akira Lynn Junyaprusert; Jessica Shutz; Giner Ann Newberry; Yasmin Ponsakaew Ahmed; Gina Sijia Liu; Bailey Cunningham Keen; Sam Sueoka; Finn Oliver Brown; Max Rulff; and Iman Tasbeet.

Sam Sueoka, one of the arrested individuals, has been identified as a King County public defender who has represented criminal anti-Israel protesters in the past. The KC Public Defenders Office declined to comment

The Public Defender's office declined to comment. Will the State Bar have anything to say?

If one square inch of Federal property was involved Bondi should charge every last one of them.

If any of them traveled across a State line the FBI needs to be all over them RFN.

The Washington state bar probably requires proof of left wing rioting to become a lawyer.

Meanwhile, corrupt state bars are revoking conservative lawyers just for fighting election fraud.

The feds definitely should start determining what federal crimes they can be charged with.

If any of those arrested are foreign students here on visas, then those visas should be revoked and the students deported.

He needs to be disbarred. Maybe someday he can find a job reviewing residential leases.

It’s Seattle and Western Washington. Is any one surprised?

Let’s see. 10% of $1,000 bail is $100. Sort of excessive, isn’t it? That’s not quite a carton of cigarettes, at current Washington prices.

You’re probably right. I’m sure it is a resume enhancer for employment in Seattle’s judicial system.

This isn’t the Bee?

I don’t believe that there were arrests. /s

Wake me if there are convictions and actual time served.

Issue the cops nunchucks. Hit them in the arms not legs. That way they can still run.
