A former Justice Department employee who threw a sandwich at a federal agent during President Donald Trump’s law enforcement surge in Washington was found not guilty of assault on Thursday in the latest legal rebuke of the federal intervention.

There was no dispute over whether Dunn threw the sandwich at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent on the night of Aug. 10. But his lawyers argued it was a “harmless gesture” during an act of protest protected by the First Amendment.

Dunn lawyers urged the judge to dismiss the case for what they alleged was a vindictive and selective prosecution. They argued that the posts by Bondi and the White House show Dunn was impermissibly targeted for his political speech.

Sandwich throwing is now “free speech”? LOL. The idiot judges continue apace.
So, if I call Mr. Dunn a piece of dung as I hit him with a sandwich, is that protected speech, too? I sure hope so.
Expect more of the same.
Basically, you can be a Leftist Democrat, assault an ICE agent or a Republican in DC and get away with it.
Now he’ll sue to get his job back.
“Now he’ll sue to get his job back.”
Stick him in the basement with a red stapler.
Eating a sub sandwich should be a crime. Not one single ingredient is good for. you and most will increase your medical bills and shorten your life. And IMHO opinion, they require a BARF ALRT.
Refile!
It appears he wasn’t found not guilty - the judge just dismissed it.
Neither is throwing a sandwich assault. Harassment would have been the correct charge.
Wrong.
It’s good to be a democrat
So I guess this clears the way for me to throw objects at the judge, pompous ass that he is.

“Sean Charles Dunn, 37, was found not guilty of a misdemeanor assault charge by a jury in Washington, DC, federal court”
