Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner criticized President Donald Trump's Department of Justice.
On his podcast "Justice Matters," Kirschner specifically called out the DOJ for dropping its indictment against Olympic canoeist David Hearn, 67, who was accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
He characterized the DOJ's approach as "ready, fire, aim" mode, noting the department refused to take responsibility for the facts presented to the judge, instead blaming the Department of the Interior.
"Talk about finger-pointing," Kirschner said.
He condemned the practice of indicting first and investigating later, arguing it violates standard prosecutorial procedures.
Kirschner also criticized former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, the prosecutor in the case, for investigating a foregone conclusion rather than applying the facts objectively.
"Not in the 'Before Times,' but in the legal upside down [world] courtesy of Trump and Todd Blanche and Jeanine Pirro, it is ready, fire, aim, and that is inexcusable. It's horrific, and it is a gross abuse of prosecutorial discretion and power."
