Charges filed by KCPAO in November 2022
King County prosecutors are frequently asked: What kinds of crimes do you charge?
Most crimes in cities are misdemeanors handled by individual city attorney’s offices. That includes the overwhelming majority of shoplifting cases. But more serious cases — including shootings, residential burglaries, and armed assaults — can be referred as felony crimes to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office by police investigators.
If someone armed with a gun or knife makes a threat while shoplifting, that can escalate it to a felony crime, for example.
In November, King County prosecutors charged at least 782 crimes — the most serious in our community. That was over 19 business days. Below are links to daily case lists, followed by the November summary by crime type.
