肖恩·邓恩因涉嫌用三明治袭击联邦特工案开庭审理
摘要
肖恩·邓恩因涉嫌在华盛顿特区执法力度加强期间向一名联邦特工投掷三明治，面临审判。
肖恩·查尔斯·邓恩的审判本周在华盛顿特区开始，他因涉嫌在该市联邦执法力量加强期间向一名联邦特工投掷三明治而面临轻罪袭击指控。
今年八月，在时任总统唐纳德·特朗普下令部署联邦特工期间，前司法部员工邓恩被拍摄到向一名美国海关与边境保护局（CBP）特工投掷一种潜艇三明治。这一事件发生在一家夜总会外，迅速引起广泛关注，成为当地对联邦增援的抵抗象征。
在审判开庭陈述中，美国助理检察官约翰·帕伦强调处理此类行为的重要性，他表示：“你不能随便扔东西。”辩护律师朱莉娅·加托承认邓恩确实投掷了三明治，但辩称这是邓恩对其认为的专制警务策略进行象征性抗议的行为。
CBP特工格雷戈里·莱尔莫尔作证称，邓恩情绪激动，大声咒骂后投掷了三明治，三明治击中了他的胸部。莱尔莫尔指出，三明治“爆炸般洒满了我的胸口”。
起初，检方寻求对邓恩提出重罪袭击指控，最高可判处八年监禁。然而，大陪审团未对重罪指控进行起诉，导致目前的轻罪指控，最高刑期为一年。
预计审判将持续两天，陪审团将负责裁定邓恩的行为是否构成轻罪袭击。
