Ex-Olympian in Reflecting Pool case says grand jury irregularities tainted prosecution

Renovations of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington, DC, were completed last week on June 14, 2026. The construction project, which began in April, was executed as part of President Donald Trump's strategic plan leading up to the nation's 250th anniversary. Despite the completion of these works, algae has been pictured within the pool. Additionally, an ex-Olympian involved in the Reflecting Pool case claims that irregularities within the grand jury tainted the prosecution process.
