The Justice Department on Friday moved to dismiss its criminal case against a former Olympic athlete who has been accused of intentionally damaging the Reflecting Pool at the Lincoln Memorial, stating new information showed it was the result of a rushed job. “Given all of this newly discovered information, it is difficult to attribute the widespread damage to the Reflecting Pool to vandalism, let alone to establish that fact beyond a reasonable doubt,” U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro said in the filing. Hearn was one of seven people who faced charges in what the administration said were efforts to sabotage the renovation project. Hearn pleaded not guilty to a charge of destruction of property, the only felony charge among the seven suspects, earlier this month. If a judge does not agree to dismiss the charge, Hearns will stand trial on Sept. 28 in D.C. Superior Court.
