US prosecutors have dropped charges against a former Olympian accused of vandalizing the Reflecting Pool in Washington DC, after evidence showed the damage was caused by flawed installation work overseen by the Department of Interior. The case was initially based on the belief that the damage resulted from vandalism, but new information indicated a rushed and defective contractor job linked to efforts to beautify the city before the 250th independence anniversary. The individual arrested had reached into the pool after a bike ride, and the case has been criticized by his lawyers as an abuse of government power.
