华盛顿9月21日(路透社)——针对五名斯坦福大学现任及前学生的指控将被撤销,这些学生与2024年一场亲巴勒斯坦抗议活动有关,当时抗议者在该校校长办公室内设置了路障。

加利福尼亚州总检察长罗布·邦塔的办公室周一表示,只要五名被告每人完成100小时社区服务,并向斯坦福大学合计支付约5.2万美元的赔偿金,就将撤销对他们的指控。

代表其中一名被告的圣克拉拉县公设辩护人 Avi 辛格据《旧金山纪事报》称,所有人都“已全额赔偿,并同意完成大量社区服务,以便他们能够继续正常生活”。

此前陪审团未能达成一致裁决,法官已于2月宣布该案审判无效。最初有12名抗议者被控犯有重罪故意毁坏财物罪。其中七人此前已接受认罪协议或分流方案。

检方在提起指控时表示,至少有一名嫌疑人破窗进入大楼。2024年6月5日,警方因该事件逮捕了13人,斯坦福大学称该建筑遭受了“严重”损坏。

这些指控是2024年美国高校亲巴勒斯坦抗议运动中针对参与者最严重的指控之一,当时示威者要求结束以色列对加沙的袭击和空袭,以及华盛顿对其盟友的支持,并要求各自大学从支持以色列的公司撤资。

抗议者将该办公室重新命名为“阿德南博士办公室”,以纪念在被关押数月后死于以色列监狱的巴勒斯坦医生阿德南·布尔什。

据媒体统计,2024年美国亲巴勒斯坦抗议运动期间共有超过3000人被捕。一些学生面临停学、开除以及学位被撤销的处罚。

审判无效后,圣克拉拉县地方检察官杰夫·罗森表示,他将寻求重新审判。然而,辩护律师成功辩称,应将他的办公室从该案中移除,理由包括他过去的言论等问题。随后加利福尼亚州总检察长办公室接手了此案。

  • Summary
  • Judge had declared mistrial in February
  • Protesters barricaded themselves inside Stanford president’s office in 2024
  • US campuses saw large scale pro-Palestinian protests that year

WASHINGTON, Sept 21 (Reuters) – Charges against five ​former and current Stanford University students will be dismissed in relation to ‌a 2024 pro-Palestinian demonstration in which protesters barricaded themselves inside the school president’s office.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta’s office said on Monday it would dismiss the charges if the five defendants completed 100 hours of community ​service each and paid about $52,000 combined in restitution to the university.

Santa Clara County ​Deputy Public Defender Avi Singh, who represented one of the defendants, ⁠said all had “made full restitution and agreed to complete substantial community service so they ​can move forward with their lives,” according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

A judge declared a ​mistrial in February in the case after jurors could not reach a verdict. Twelve protesters were initially charged with felony vandalism. Seven of them previously accepted plea deals or diversion programs.

Prosecutors said at ​the time the charges were filed that at least one suspect entered the building ​by breaking a window. Police arrested 13 people on June 5, 2024, in relation to the incident ‌and ⁠the university said the building sustained “extensive” damage.

The charges were among the most serious against participants in the 2024 pro-Palestinian protest movement on US colleges in which demonstrators demanded an end to Israeli attacks and strikes on Gaza and to Washington’s support for its ally, ​along with a divestment ​of funds by ⁠their universities from companies supporting Israel.

Protesters had renamed the building “Dr. Adnan’s Office” after Adnan Al-Bursh, a Palestinian doctor who died in an Israeli ​prison after months of detention.

Over 3,000 people were arrested during ​the 2024 ⁠US pro-Palestinian protest movement, according to media tallies. Some students faced suspension, expulsion and the revocation of their degrees.

After the mistrial, Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen said he would seek a ⁠new ​trial. However, defense attorneys were able to successfully argue ​that his office should be removed from the case, citing concerns including his past remarks. The California attorney ​general’s office took over the case.
