Former Olympian Facing 10 Years In Prison For Alleged Reflecting Pool Vandalism

67-year-old David Hearn, who represented the United States in three Olympics as a canoeist, is now fighting for his freedom. U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro announced the felony charge against Hearn after she says he “violently” and “maliciously” destroyed 2 square feet of reflecting pool liner.  Hearn has admitted to touching the liner out of curiosity, but denies removing or damaging it. His attorneys say this is a misuse of government power to shift blame for their own failures refurbishing the pool.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
