Case Against D.C. Voting Rights Activist Dismissed

As quietly as Bart Turner was arrested, his case was dismissed. Today in D.C. Superior Court, a single charge of “Unlawful Entry” against Turner — a Ward 2 resident and former D.C. public school teacher who was arrested on April 18 during a one-man D.C. voting rights demonstration on the steps of the U.S. Capitol — was dismissed by prosecutors.
