The government can't revive Hearn's Reflecting Pool vandalism charges, a judge rules

What the coverage shows

All three outlets center the judge’s refusal to let the Reflecting Pool vandalism case be revived, and NPR and The Independent explicitly frame it as blocking a government attempt to refile or recharge David Hearn. CBS News is the outlier in calling the case “permanently dismissed” and adds only in its extract that prosecutors had earlier sought dismissal because the damage was blamed on a contractor’s “botched installation.” The Independent uniquely foregrounds Trump DOJ pressure and quotes the judge calling re-charging Hearn “simply fanciful.”
