U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro announced the names of two adult suspects charged with assaulting Edward Coristine, the former Department of Government Efficiency employee nicknamed “Big Balls.”

Pirro named 19-year-old Laurence Cotton-Powell and 18-year-old Anthony Taylor as two of the alleged suspects in the August attack in a press conference Monday afternoon. Coristine’s assault brought crime in Washington, D.C., under a microscope, with President Donald Trump using the incident as part of his justification for declaring a crime emergency in the district.
