“STANFORD 11” – 11 Stanford University pro-Hamas criminal agitators indicted on charges of felony vandalism and conspiracy to trespass

The group of current and former Stanford University students were seen on social media videos storming the office of Stanford University President Richard Saller early on the morning of June 5, 2024, during the wave of college campus protests over the war in Gaza. They stand accused of felony vandalism and conspiracy to trespass, as KTVU reports, following a September 29th Grand Jury indictment.

SFist (h/t Citizens for Confronting CAIR) That indictment, which defense attorneys say is political, supercedes an earlier, identical one issued in the spring, and it allows the district attorney to avoid a public preliminary hearing in which the validity of evidence may be questioned.

Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen said during the initial indictment process in April, that he believed this case goes beyond the boundaries of free speech.

“Our speech must be protected, true,” Rosen said, per KTVU. “But so must our schools, our workplaces and our homes. We’re here today because I will not allow people hiding behind masks to commit crimes.” As Rosen summarized it, “Dissent is American, vandalism is criminal.”
