HOUSTON — Prosecutors dismissed Tuesday the last of the charges against two anti-abortion activists who covertly recorded a video of themselves meeting with Planned Parenthood officials, effectively ending a case that had drawn national attention from both opponents and supporters of abortion.

The activists, David R. Daleiden, 27, and Sandra S. Merritt, 62, members of the Center for Medical Progress, were indicted by a grand jury in Harris County, Tex., in January on charges of tampering with government records for using fake IDs and offering to buy fetal tissue at a meeting at which Planned Parenthood officials explained how they provide the tissue to medical researchers. Their video, which was widely circulated on the internet, alleged that Planned Parenthood was guilty of the crime of selling fetal remains.

After the video surfaced in June 2015, the Texas lieutenant governor, a Republican, asked the Republican district attorney in Harris County to examine Planned Parenthood. A grand jury ended up indicting Mr. Daleiden and Ms. Merritt, and taking no action against Planned Parenthood.

At a hearing in the case in a Houston courtroom on Tuesday, prosecutors with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office decided to drop all charges against the two activists by dismissing the two indictments, citing a legal technicality with the grand jury’s term. Mr. Daleiden’s lawyers had sought to have the case thrown out because the indictments came during an extension of its term. They argued the grand jury did not have the authority to indict Mr. Daleiden and Ms. Merritt during the so-called holdover period, and prosecutors appeared to have agreed.

This wasn't dismissed on a technicality, but because the prosecution had no real case. It was nothing but harassment from beginning to end.
