A U.S. district court has ruled that Seattle must temporarily cease
enforcement of property crimes with regard to graffiti.
Judge Marsha Pechman of the U.S. District Court for the Western District
of Washington issued a preliminary injunction, saying the city's ordinance
that punishes graffiti "targets speech" and "poses a real and substantial
threat of censorship."
"On its face, the Ordinance sweeps so broadly that it criminalizes
innocuous drawings (from a child’s drawing of a mermaid to pro-police
messages written by the Seattle Police Foundation) that can hardly be said
to constitute 'visual blight' and which would naturally wash away in the
next rain storm," Pechman wrote.

The Seattle Police Department (SPD) released a statement to address the
court's ruling, stating that a lack of future enforcement is not a
conscious decision by the government.
"Late yesterday afternoon, SPD received an order from a US District Court
judge that enjoined, in full, enforcement of SMC 12A.080.020 – the City’s
misdemeanor property destruction law," the SPD wrote.
The department continued, "This means that until further order of the
Court, SPD cannot take action on damage to property under this law. This
is not a matter within SPD or City discretion; we are bound by the court
order as it is written."
Law enforcement is currently working with the Seattle mayor’s office and
the city attorney’s office to address the new gap in policing.
"We understand and share the concerns that are being relayed to us by our
community, businesses and residents alike," the SPD wrote.
Vandalism and graffiti have become a prominent issue in Seattle, and the
city government is expected to request an expedited reconsideration of the
ruling.

The department added, "We know, as evidenced by the thousands of calls for
service we receive each year reporting acts of vandalism and other forms
of property damage that property damage is, in fact, a crime that is of
significance to community members."
