Prosecutors move to dismiss felony vandalism case against Olympian David Hearn over Reflecting Pool

Prosecutors in Washington, D.C. moved to dismiss a felony vandalism charge against Olympic athlete David Hearn, citing records from the Department of the Interior about pre-existing coating damage to the Reflecting Pool that were not provided before his indictment. The U.S. Attorney's Office stated that the Interior Department withheld information about deterioration issues at the site prior to Hearn's case being brought to court. Court documents indicated the withheld records were relevant to the charges against Hearn.
