No cops seems to have been present, although U-T San Diego reported that police knew about the event, which had been held a year earlier with no problems.

Stoked by extensive media coverage, elected officials were furious. “We will hold those who did this accountable for their actions — which may be criminal — and for every penny it costs to return this area to its original beauty,” then-Mayor Jerry Sanders declared. Councilman Todd Gloria tweeted that “those responsible for this destruction will be held responsible.”

The lily pond damage also crept into the mayoral campaign. Then-Rep. Bob Filner’s campaign accused the partner of his rival, then-Councilman Carl DeMaio, of orchestrating the event. He didn’t, prompting one of DeMaio’s operatives called Filner a “a lying sack of marbles.”

An investigation began after the damage was discovered. Well, sort of. According to U-T San Diego, the Police Department assigned two detectives to investigate the case. But as of January, they hadn’t talked to the local writer who’d written extensively about the case, taken video and photographs and posted a diatribe about the event and reckless media sensationalism on YouTube. An investigator did talk to the writer after the VOSD report.

Donations helped fund repair and renovation at the lily pond, which was estimated to suffer $10,000 worth of damage. The work was finished by February.

The investigation then ended a few weeks ago in May, a few months shy of the one-year deadline for misdemeanor charges to be filed.
