## Felony dropped after a man spent a month in a Tennessee jail for a Charlie Kirk post

Authored by apnews.com

Authorities in Tennessee have dropped a felony charge against a man who was jailed for more than a month over a Facebook post he made about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

Bushart was released Wednesday after prosecutors sought to dismiss the charge.

Bushart, a 61-year-old former law enforcement officer, had posted numerous memes on Facebook making light of Kirk’s killing.

The one that got Bushart arrested was a meme featuring President Donald Trump and the words, “We have to get over it.”

That quote, the meme explained, was said by Trump last year after a school shooting at Iowa’s Perry High School.

Bushart spent more than five weeks in jail before being released.

Neither Weems nor Hans Schwendimann, the local district attorney, immediately responded to requests for comment on why the charge was dropped. »
