It should be remembered that SEVERAL grand juries initially declined to charge the defendant, despite the ironic traditional reputation of grand juries to "indict a ham sandwich." But they kept going back. They were determined to destroy this citizen.
Obviously, they eventually prevailed, got the Sandwich Assassin into a courtroom, where the "victim" proceeded to blatantly lie in open court:
Lairmore had testified that the sandwich “exploded all over” his chest and claimed he could smell mustard and onions. But a photo showed that the sandwich was still in its wrapper on the ground after it hit Lairmore in his bulletproof vest.
What fucking drama queen LIAR. He should be charged with perjury.
Also, the jurors had sandwiches for lunch. I'm surprised the Trump lawyers didn't try for a mistrial on the grounds that lunch was prejudicial.
I feel bad for the guy for losing a perfectly good sandwich.
Fucking ICE losers.

that was quick, trials with a jury take a while to setup, and usually reserved for crimes that are serious, this isn't
In this economy they were probably just being contrarian to get another free meal and some more pocket change.
The justice system moves at exactly the speed they want it to. Years to prosecute someone like Trump. Or it takes a day. Whichever is most convenient for the rich and most inconvenient for the poors.
I'm honestly surprised it took them so long to decide. That means at least one juror didn't immediately laugh the charges out of consideration.
I was a juror on a federal felony case that took longer to choose a foreman than we took to reach a verdict.
This is something that is technically illegal but actually trivial; someone(s) decided to try to treat it more seriously and had to be argued into not guilty.
"Sandwich exploded".... :)
He threw the hero they deserve, but not the one he needs to eat right now.
you ice PIGS are lucky it was a sandwich and not a molotov cocktail, or styrofoam fire cocktail,
Good.
As funny as this whole event should be it’s ridiculous it even went to trial.
He threw it in protest. He was acquitted.
You know what to do next time you go to protest!
