White House Seeking New Charges Against David Hearn After Dropped Reflecting Pool Vandalism Case, Report Says The White House's decision to seek new charges against David Hearn, a former Olympian accused of vandalism at the Reflecting Pool, has raised questions about the politicization of justice in America.
At its core, this case is not just about alleged property damage worth over $1,000 but also about the blurred lines between politics and prosecution. U. S.
Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro dropped the case against Hearn and other alleged vandals earlier this month, citing evidence that "significantly undermined" the indictment's evidentiary basis.
