Two teenagers, accused of assaulting Coristine, received probation sentences this week. The incident occurred in the early hours of August 3, in the Logan Circle area of Washington, D.C. According to WUSA, both a 15-year-old boy and girl were involved in the assault and faced charges in juvenile court, to which they pleaded guilty.

This week, the judge sentenced the boy to a 12-month probation period, while the girl received nine months. The boy admitted to charges including felony assault, simple assault, robbery, and attempted robbery, whereas the girl pleaded guilty to simple assault.

The judge emphasized that the juvenile court’s objective is not punitive but aimed at rehabilitation. She expressed her hope that the probationary period would serve as a valuable learning opportunity for the teenagers.

Reports suggest that Edward “Big Balls” Coristine, a former DOGE employee, was attacked while attempting to assist a woman. This account was shared through Truth Social by a source linked to @realDonaldTrump.

According to the report, a victim of the attack was in court when the teens were sentenced, telling the suspects, “I hope you can figure things out and be ready for the consequences.”

In late September, Coristine told Fox News Channel host Jesse Watters he was hanging out with friends before the attack.

“I was walking one of my friends back to her car, and as we’re walking to the car, there’s a group of 10 guys right across the street,” Coristine said. “They start shouting at us. And really quickly, I knew something was really off about the situation.”

Coristine said he rushed to get his female friend into the driver’s seat before the attackers got close.

“They’re just a few feet away and they slammed me against the car,” Coristine said. “They started throwing a bunch of punches. I keep my hands up… luckily, the whole thing didn’t last too long.”

Following the assault in early August, President Donald Trump called out D.C. officials for their handling of juvenile crime.

“Local ‘youths’ and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
