Feds Charge Fired DOJ Employee with Misdemeanor in Sandwich Throw Case
On August 10, 2025, former DOJ employee Sean Charles Dunn allegedly threw a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection officer in Washington, D.C. Initially, prosecutors sought a felony assault charge, but after failing to secure a grand jury indictment, they proceeded with a misdemeanor assault charge instead. Dunn was subsequently fired from his position at the DOJ. The U.S. Attorney’s office, led by Jeanine Pirro, is prosecuting the case.
