Presumably on the theory that waking up to a beating and pepper spraying at the hands of the police is bad enough, prosecutors in Brooklyn decided on Monday not to charge Ehud Halevy with any crimes for that ugly incident in a Jewish center earlier this month. Police had wanted him prosecuted on charges of resisting arrest and assault, but video of the incident shows pretty clearly he did neither, and the case against Halevy is officially closed.
