KCPAO in the News: March 28-April 4
Below are some key new stories featuring the work of the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office from March 28 through April 4. Our office handles felony-level crimes — which are the more serious crimes committed in King County — while City Attorneys’ offices handle most misdemeanors. Each day, the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office files roughly 25 felony cases in King County, and we’re working hard to make sure the public and the media know about the work we’re doing to hold people who cause harm accountable.
