Summary
Donald Trump's US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, failed to convince three grand juries to bring felony charges against a woman named Sydney Lori Reid for allegedly assaulting a law enforcement officer during immigration enforcement operations. Undeterred by the grand jury's repeated rejection of criminal charges, Pirro directed her prosecutors to charge Ms. Reid with a misdemeanor crime.
In a direct repudiation of Pirro's prosecutorial overreach, a jury - sitting as the conscience of the community, - has found Ms. Reid NOT GUILTY!
This result reinforces that, whether it's 23 people in a private grand jury room, 12 people in a jury box in a public courtroom, or seven million people in the streets of American protesting against Trump's tyranny, IT IS THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE POWER!
