Trump says Pirro 'folded like an umbrella' in bid to drop Reflecting Pool vandalism charges
President Donald Trump criticized U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro for dropping charges against David Hearn, a former Olympian accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Trump alleged Pirro 'folded like an umbrella' under judicial pressure, while Hearn claimed he examined the pool's coating and obeyed a park worker's instruction to stop. The Justice Department's decision to dismiss charges marked an embarrassing setback during Trump's second term.
