A judge has ordered prison time for the man who stabbed a victim during an attempted robbery outside a downtown Seattle hotel last spring.

This knife was recovered by the Seattle Police Department after arresting a suspect accused of stabbing a man leaving a downtown Seattle hotel on May 7, 2023. Job Quimpo, 43, will spend 27 months in prison as part of the plea agreement with prosecutors.You were right to give me time in prison. Please be merciful, I was under the influence," Quimpo said. "I’m just glad to see Mr. Pond recovered pretty good... I'm sorry to Josh Pond sincerely.

“It was clearly close or had impacted my kidneys... one more millimeter, one more pound of force, or even just a sharper knife would have pierced my kidney. It would have resulted in a life threatening and at least a life-long injury,” Pond told the court.Ponds said he called his wife on FaceTime as he was in the ambulance to tell her what happened to him.
