The Defendant, Charles DiRosa, faced criminal charges for a Facebook comment that read, "Put Wings on Pigs." This was apparently a reference to a post by Ismaaiyl Brinsley, who murdered two New York police officers after saying that he was "putting wings on pigs." There was speculation that DiRosa's post was protected by the First Amendment, since even if it called for violence, it could not be read to incite immediate violence. However, no decision will be reached on the merits, as DiRosa reached a plea deal and will serve community service for the comment.
