Arlington activist avoids Virginia charges over Miller protest flyers

A Virginia prosecutor will not charge Arlington activist Barbara Wien with state crimes for distributing flyers containing Stephen Miller’s home address during protests, finding no probable cause under Virginia’s law against using someone’s identity or address to coerce or harass and noting the flyer did not call for action at Miller’s residence. The decision, in a 166-page filing, says Wien’s actions are protected political speech. Wien remains under federal investigation with no charges yet, and prosecutors have sought to limit data sharing and destruction of records connected to the case.
