Judge dismisses David Hearn Reflecting Pool case
Original: david hearn reflecting pool case dismissed
A federal judge has dismissed the case against David Hearn, a former Olympian, over an incident at the National Mall's Reflecting Pool, barring U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro from bringing charges against him. The ruling has drawn attention because it blocks a high-profile prosecutor from pursuing the case, and it is generating interest given Hearn's athletic background and the unusual involvement of Pirro's office.
Why now: A judge blocked U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro from prosecuting a former Olympian, a high-profile clash between the courts and the prosecutor's office
