Melissa Farris, a 41-year-old woman from Elizabethtown, Kentucky, livestreamed herself damaging the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, August 13.
In a social media post, Donald Trump called her act an “insult to the American heroes” who made the ultimate sacrifice for the country.
Not long after, she was detained and charged with two federal offenses: willfully injuring or committing a depredation against U.S. property and destruction of a veterans’ memorial.
