Trump slams DOJ as charges against ex-Olympian in Reflecting Pool case are dropped: 'I disagree 100%'

Federal prosecutors dropped charges against former Olympian David Hearn over damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, citing flawed installation by the contractor and rush to complete the project before America 250 events.

President Trump publicly disagreed with the dismissal on Truth Social, calling the damage 'VANDALISM' and blaming US Attorney Jeanine Pirro for the decision.

The DOJ's 20-page filing said evidence indicated the damage was in the middle of the pool, unlikely to be deliberate, and hard to attribute to vandalism beyond a reasonable doubt.

The reflecting pool renovation is part of Trump's 'beautification' initiative; he had earlier blamed 'SICK, DERANGED PEOPLE!' for the lining issues.

Hearn's attorney welcomed the dismissal and criticized the government's handling, demanding an apology for the 'abuse of government power.'
