    Here’s the dumb AI synopsis, but it adds sources:

    A grand jury rejected the felony charge against the “sandwich thrower,” Sean Dunn, three times before prosecutors dropped the felony charge and pursued a misdemeanor. The grand jury in Washington D.C. twice refused to indict him on felony assault charges, and the third time they did so as well, according to CNBC and The Washington Post. Three rejections: Federal prosecutors failed to convince a grand jury to indict Dunn on felony assault charges on three separate occasions. Outcome of rejections: After the third rejection, prosecutors reduced the charge to a misdemeanor, which does not require a grand jury indictment. Final verdict: Dunn was later acquitted of the misdemeanor charge in a trial.

    So they tried to indict him by Grand Jury three times, who rejected them. Then they downgraded the charge so they wouldn’t need a Grand Jury, and then they lost that case, too.

    It seemed like when it was all over, the jurors agreed that the ICE cop crying about getting hit with a sandwich in his bulletproof vest was big whiney baby who should just FUCK OFF!
