The case against, Alejandro Theodoro Orellana has been dropped.
Federal prosecutors have moved to dismiss the case against a Los Angeles who had been seen on video distributing face masks during the LA anti-ICE riots in June.
According to court documents, the case against, Alejandro Theodoro Orellana has been dropped, with the DOJ stating, “Plaintiff United States of America, by and through its counsel of record, the United States Attorney for the Central District of California, hereby moves pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 48(a), and by leave of the Court, to dismiss the Indictment without prejudice in the above-referenced case.”
According to Bloomberg Law, the motion from the DOJ came down after Bill Essayli had faced pressure from prosecutors over the case. Orellana had been charged with civil disturbance, which usually requires consultation with the National Security Division in Washington.
Orellana had been indicted by a grand jury earlier in July for distributing the face shields at the anti-ICE riots in LA that took place in June. He had been charged with conspiracy to commit civil disorder and aiding and abetting civil disorder.
