(39,223 posts)DC man accused of throwing sandwich at federal officer released from custody
(Sean Dunn, accused of throwing a sandwich at a federal officer, is released on his own recognizance as the judge finds the felony charge excessive.)
WASHINGTON A man accused of throwing a Subway sandwich at a federal officer in D.C. was back in federal court on Thursday, facing felony charges.
A judge released 37-year-old Sean Dunn a former Department of Justice employee on his own recognizance, despite prosecutors pushing for serious felony assault charges that could carry up to eight years in prison...

(167 posts)It is affecting my sanity. How can any of this be real? Felony charges for throwing a sandwich, while riotors who viciously attacked police officers protecting the capital on January 6 are called patriots by this same administration? Everything has gotten so crazy, so corrupt, everyday I feel like America is going to implode from the insanity of it all.

(182,133 posts)Federal prosecutors told a judge they had failed twice to secure an indictment against Sydney Lori Reid for allegedly assaulting an FBI agent during an ICE arrest.
She is just running cover for their crimes

US Attorney Pirro's office admits grand jury refused ICE interference charges â twice

https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/crime/us-attorney-jeanine-pirros-office-admits-grand-jury-refused-charges-against-dc-woman-twice-sydney-reid-dc-jail/65-dc64747e-a8d4-4ad9-89e2-f6317f0fa2bd
Magistrate Judge G. Michael Harvey revealed the denials to attorneys for Sydney Lori Reid and later granted their request to remove all bond conditions and release her on her own recognizance over prosecutors objections. He will resume a preliminary hearing on Friday afternoon to determine whether to dismiss the case entirely.
Two presentations to the grand jury returned no bill both times, Harvey said. Suggesting the evidence is wanting, given the standard for indictment is probable cause. Suggesting the government may never get an indictment.
Grand juries are tasked with deciding only whether there is a reasonable basis to support charging someone with a crime a much lower burden for prosecutors than the beyond-a-reasonable-doubt standard of criminal juries and typically make their decisions after hearing evidence only from the government. At the federal level, grand juries return indictments, or true bills, in the vast majority of cases.
Reid, 44, was charged last month with an enhanced felony version of an assault charge that requires inflicting bodily injury on a federal officer and carries a maximum sentence of up to eight years in prison. The charge is the same offense filed this week against a former DOJ employee accused of throwing a sandwich at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent.
Piro is so bad at her job that she cannot indict a ham sandwich. It will be fun to see is she brings Sean Dunn to a grand jury for a real sandwich indictment
