Since its posting, Pirro’s video has garnered 1 million views and over 1,600 comments, with mixed reactions.
The clip comes one month after her office moved to dismiss charges against Justin Carreno, Sophie Dennison-Gibby, and Cameron Thier, who were accused of vandalizing the newly renovated $14 million Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
Just days before that, similar felony charges were dropped against former Olympian David Hearn, who was also accused of damaging the pool.
Carreno, Dennison-Gibby, and Thier had been charged with destruction of property less than $1,000, according to The New York Times.
The charges against all three were dropped, with Pirro’s filing stating that the damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was “the result of a botched installation and not vandalism as initially represented by DOI.”

The filing alleged that sealant began to peel “almost immediately” as a result of a “rushed and botched installation by AIC [Atlantic Industrial Coatings].”
In response to her claims, Trump told a reporter in the Oval Office, “Jeanine Pirro made a mistake. It was vandalism.”
“Frankly, I think she choked, because the judge was really vicious,” Trump later said. “Instead of going after the people that did it, the judge went after her and went after her department, and I guess she choked.”

Trump’s response prompted Pirro to bring a box of documents and evidence to a White House meeting with the President to defend her office’s decision, according to reports from The New York Times and CBS News.
After the reported meeting, Trump told reporters that he had told Pirro he was “not happy” with her office’s conflicting message on the damage to the Reflecting Pool and was still weighing her future.
