WASHINGTON — Twelve protesters are charged with felony vandalism for their actions during a June 2024 pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel protest at Stanford University in which demonstrators barricaded themselves inside the office of the school president.

Those charged, ranging in age from 19 to 32, entered the building and demonstrated a “conspiracy to occupy” it, prosecutors say, adding that at least one suspect entered the building by breaking a window. All suspects wore masks, they say.

Dozens of other protesters surrounded the building and chanted: “Palestine will be free.”



At the time, the university said 13 people were arrested during the protest, one police officer was injured and the building suffered “extensive” damage.
