Fairey’s Lawyer: Proof Lacking, Some Charges Dismissed

“Citing a lack of evidence, a Boston Municipal Court clerk-magistrate yesterday rejected some of the vandalism charges Boston police are trying to bring against celebrated graffiti artist Frank Shepard Fairey, Fairey’s lawyer said. The clerk-magistrate said that seven of the 17 charges police wanted to bring … should not go forward in criminal court because there is not enough proof he committed the acts of vandalism, said Fairey’s lawyer, Jeffrey Wiesner.”
