A federal grand jury in Washington declined to indict a lawyer accused of threatening National Guard troops patrolling the city as part of President Donald Trump’s federal crime surge, adding to a growing list of felony rejections facing U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s office.

Paul Anthony Bryant, a West Point and Columbia Law School graduate, was arrested on Aug. 24 after allegedly shouting “I’ll kill you” and slamming his shoulder into a Guardsman. Prosecutors charged him with threatening a federal official and making threats to injure — felonies carrying maximum penalties of 10 and 20 years. His attorney called the case “baseless” and said there is no video evidence due to National Guard troops not wearing body cameras.
