"Even though street artist Shepard Fairey has a well-documented history with vandalism — as well as making blunt statements to the local media announcing his intentions to create unauthorised artwork in Detroit — prosecutors on Tuesday fell short of providing direct evidence linking him to versions of his iconic “Obey Giant” imagery that appeared around the city earlier this year.
 
Nevertheless, 36th District Court Judge Kenneth King ruled that Fairey will proceed to trial on two counts of malicious destruction of property causing damage between $1,000 and $20,000, in addition to a new charge of malicious destruction of property in excess of $20,000. The charges carry a possible prison sentence of up to 10 years."
