The White House is reportedly pressing federal prosecutors to open another case against a former Olympian accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool after President Donald Trump publicly raged against U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s decision to drop charges.
The Department of Justice is exploring whether to pursue additional charges against David Hearn, according to The Wall Street Journal, despite explicit admissions from administration officials shared with Pirro’s office that the damage to the pool’s newly applied lining was likely due to “botched installation.”
