Summary
Anthony Khan pleaded guilty to theft in the third degree. Judge Jennifer Grant accepted the plea, suspended all 364 days and the $5,000 fine for two years, and noted his participation in the LEAD program and treatment services; no active treatment condition was ordered by the court.
Anthony Khan pleaded guilty to theft in the third degree on July 30, 2025. Judge Jennifer Grant accepted Khan’s plea after determining he made a knowing, voluntary and intelligent waiver of rights and that there was a factual basis for the charge.
Prosecutor Sarah Roberts told the court the city had information about Khan’s involvement with the LEAD (Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion) program but was not recommending court-ordered treatment because it could not tie services directly to the case. Defense counsel and the LEAD case manager described Khan’s ongoing mental-health treatment at Navos, participation in medication-assisted treatment, and housing stability. On that basis the city did not seek jail time.
Grant followed the parties’ negotiated recommendation and imposed a two-year suspended sentence: all 364 days of jail were suspended, and the $5,000 fine was fully suspended. The judge ordered that Khan have no criminal-law violations during the two-year period and explicitly instructed him not to enter the Safeway (the store named in the complaint). The court did not impose financial obligations. The judge praised Khan’s engagement with LEAD and encouraged continued participation. The court will mail the judgment and sentence to the address provided in Burien (apartment reported as 305).
