Soon after President Donald Trump celebrated the success of the crackdown on crime in Washington, D.C., saying “everybody is safe now,” a Biden-appointed judge released two teenagers accused of a brutal assault on a DOGE staffer that was a key spark in Trump’s declaration of a crime emergency in the nation’s capital.<\/p>\n

Judge Kendra Briggs on Thursday ordered the release of the two teenagers, a boy and girl both age 15, who are accused of an attempted carjacking and assaulting Edward Coristine on Aug. 3.<\/p>\n

The duo, who cannot be named due to their ages, are from Hyattsville, Maryland, were released from juvenile detention.<\/p>\n

Coristine reportedly had tried to help a woman who was being assaulted in her car by the mob who then attacked him.<\/p>\n

Trump had dedicated mass resources to D.C. in the weeks after the 19-year-old Coristine was attacked on the streets.<\/p>\n

The girl has another pending matter in Maryland, and prosecutors objected to her release, describing her as a danger to the community and a flight risk.<\/p>\n

The judge required both teens to attend school and abide by a strict curfew, as well as electric monitoring.<\/p>\n

Trump on Thursday publicly thanked federal and local law enforcement officers for cleaning up the streets of the nation’s capital.<\/p>\n

“It’s like a different place, it’s a different city,” Trump said.<\/p>\n

“It was worse than ever just a short while ago,” the president said. “Right now, it’s better than it has been in years. And in a couple of weeks it’s going to be far better than that.”<\/p>\n

“One of the things we’re going to be redoing is your parks,” Trump added. “I’m very good at grass because I have a lot of golf courses all over the place. I know more about grass than any human being, I think, anywhere in the world. And we’re going to be re-grassing all of your parks.”<\/p>\n

“You know, like everything else, grass has a life\u2026 The grass here died about 40 years ago,” Trump lamented.<\/p>\n

On Aug. 11, Trump announced in a news conference from the White House he was invoking the D.C. Home Rule Act in order to place D.C. police under federal control.<\/p>\n

As of Thursday there were zero murders in D.C. for an entire week, marking a new record.<\/p>\n
