On Wednesday, prosecutors declined to file charges against two protesters arrested for felony assault by Seattle Police Department (SPD) officers during a pro-Palestine protest outside the World Trade Center Seattle last Friday. The lack of charges seems to support claims from protesters that SPD overreacted to the demonstration, as does the fact that, according to the King County Prosecutor’s Office, SPD itself said the department might not have a felony case against either defendant. However, the department said Thursday they were still investigating the protesters.
