A federal judge barred U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro from charging former Olympian David Hearn in the Reflecting Pool case, dismissing the case with prejudice. The judge cited exceptional circumstances, including what he described as President Donald Trump's pressure campaign on Pirro's office. The ruling is a sharp judicial rebuke of political interference in federal prosecutions and raises fresh questions about the Justice Department's independence under the Trump administration.

Why now: The ruling highlights alleged political interference by President Trump in a federal prosecution, a topic of major public concern.
