Two individuals in Washington, D.C. were not indicted by grand juries despite facing charges of threatening the life of President Donald Trump, prosecutors confirmed on Tuesday.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington revealed that both cases involved threats against the president, but the grand juries did not find enough evidence to move forward with trials.
Case of Nathalie Rose Jones
One of the cases involved Nathalie Rose Jones, who allegedly made online threats to assassinate Trump and repeated them to Secret Service agents during an interview. Despite efforts by U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C. Jeanine Pirro to secure an indictment, the grand jury declined.

Reacting to the grand jury’s decision, Pirro criticized the politicized nature of the jury and expressed concern over the broken judicial system that allowed such threats to go unpunished.
Case of Edward Alexander Dana
In another case, Edward Alexander Dana, who was arrested for vandalism in Northwest D.C., allegedly threatened to kill Trump while intoxicated. Despite admitting to the threat, the grand jury did not indict him.

Defense attorney Elizabeth Mullin, representing Dana, expressed disbelief at the grand jury’s decision and criticized the handling of the case.
Concerns Over Justice System
Pirro raised concerns about the politicization of grand juries in D.C. and their reluctance to hold threatening individuals accountable. She warned that the lack of indictments in these cases signaled a collapse within the justice system.
Last week, Pirro highlighted the growing acceptance of crime in D.C. and the reluctance of residents to pursue indictments. She reiterated her concerns on Tuesday, calling for a reevaluation of the judicial process.
