Former Olympian indicted on felony charge over alleged Reflecting Pool vandalism

A former Olympian, David Hearn, was indicted on a felony property destruction charge for allegedly damaging the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool's sealant, causing over $1,000 in damage. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro accused him of deliberately ripping up the liner, while Hearn's lawyers called the charges 'outrageous.' President Donald Trump linked the incident to ongoing issues with the pool's $16-million renovation project.
