Prosecuting Attorney Data Dashboard

The King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office (KCPAO) created this dashboard in 2020 to help better inform the public, government decision makers, and criminal justice system partners about the trajectory of felony criminal justice cases in King County. The KCPAO handles the vast majority of felonies in King County and some misdemeanors. Misdemeanor crimes are low-level offenses punishable by up to 364 days in jail. Felony crimes are more serious offenses and may result in a prison sentence of more than one year. This dashboard only provides data on felony referrals and cases filed into King County Superior Court; it does not contain any data on cases in King County District Court or the various Municipal Courts. The data that populates this dashboard comes from the KCPAO and, where noted, the King County Department of Judicial Administration about cases filed or intended to be filed in King County Superior Court.
