A DC grand jury declined to indict the DOJ lawyer charged for throwing a Subway sandwich at a federal agent in DC.
A man in a salmon-colored t-shirt was caught on video throwing a sandwich at a federal officer in DC earlier this week after President Trump deployed the National Guard to patrol the streets.
The sandwich thrower was identified as 37-year-old Sean Charles Dunn, a DOJ trial attorney.
A DC grand jury refused to indict Dunn.
CNBC reported:
Federal prosecutors failed to obtain a grand jury indictment against a former Department of Justice employee who allegedly hurled a Subway sandwich at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer who President Donald Trump had deployed in Washington, D.C.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in D.C. has sought to charge the man, Sean Charles Dunn, with felony assault of an officer for the Aug. 10 sub-chucking incident, which was caught on video. The DOJ fired Dunn after his arrest.
NBC News reported Wednesday that two people familiar with the matter said that a grand jury failed to indict Dunn in the case, which was heavily touted by Trump administration law-enforcement officials.
It is not clear if prosecutors will try again to obtain an indictment of Dunn or lodge another charging instrument against him, known as an “information.”
“If you touch any law enforcement officer, we will come after you. I just learned that this defendant worked at the Department of Justice — NO LONGER. Not only is he FIRED, he has been charged with a felony. This is an example of the Deep State we have been up against for seven months as we work to refocus DOJ. You will NOT work in this administration while disrespecting our government and law enforcement,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said.
