WASHINGTON (AP) — A judge in the nation's capital has set a trial date in September for a former Olympic canoe racer charged with deliberately damaging the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, the site of a troubled multimillion-dollar renovation project championed by President Donald Trump. D.C. Superior Court Judge Todd Edelman scheduled the Sept. 28 trial date for David Hearn during a hearing on Monday. In a court filing, his attorneys argued the government has failed to properly preserve important physical evidence from the Reflecting Pool.

Trump initially suggested that pool renovations would cost $1.5 million, but the cost of the project has exceeded $16 million.
