"[Bragg's office], they favor criminals over victims," Craven Antao told "Fox & Friends" co-host Ainsley Earhardt, faulting Bragg's office for putting "a simple law school graduate in charge of my case." "They failed to file a certificate of readiness. So, because the evidence was not presented, it timed out within that 90 days," the content creator continued. "I believe it was [on purpose]."
"The district attorney's office released a statement of apology for not proceeding with the case. "Every victim deserves their day in court, and our office has reached out to apologize to Ms. Craven for the unacceptable error of missing the discovery deadline. We are taking immediate internal steps in light of this case." According to Craven Antao, she wasn't notified the case had been dropped, but rather, found out through her attacker's Instagram stories. "It was shocking," said the pro-life advocate."

The DA's office issued an apology, acknowledged the missed deadline, and said it will take internal steps. The influencer said she learned the case was dropped through the attacker's Instagram stories and described the news as shocking. She also said the incident will not deter her activism and raised concerns about political violence.
