Judge Jeanine Event Abruptly Canceled as She Scrambles to Save Her Job

Cheney Orr / REUTERS An event featuring under-fire Jeanine Pirro was abruptly canceled at the last minute as she scrambles to save her job.

The former Fox News host, one of several network personalities given jobs in the Trump administration, ticked off the president by failing to secure a conviction of a man alleged to have damaged one of President Trump’s flagship vanity projects, the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

The U.S.

Attorney for D.C.—who got her JD from Albany Law School—ditched the charges but revisited them after Trump publicly called her out.

Even still, many think she could be the next high-profile exit from the administration.

Now, NOTUS reports that a public meeting with interim D.C.

Police Chief Jeffery Carroll, where violent crime trends were set to be on the agenda, was abruptly canceled Monday night.

No explanation was forthcoming.

The organizers, D.C.’s Criminal Justice Coordinating Council, said they “do not have additional information to share” when the Daily Beast pressed them on whether Pirro’s troubles have anything to do with the last-minute cancellation.

“Our focus now is on determining the best approach for future public engagement,” a spokesperson told the Beast.

The event, “Violent Crime in DC: What’s Worked and What’s Next,” was previously shelved in June.

Activist group Free D.C. was due to be present on Monday.

Alex Dodds, the organization’s co-founder, said, “It seems pretty clear that they don’t actually want to hear from D.C. residents.” This follows a report by the D.C. inspector general that found a “prolonged, systemic breakdown” in the police department’s oversight of crime reporting, with outdated policies, weak controls over crime data, and no independent review of reports for accuracy for much of the past decade.

It also comes amid a high-profile spat between Pirro and President Trump.
