U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced on Friday the arrest of Melissa L. Farris, a suspect who allegedly vandalized the World War II Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

“Vandalizing our World War II Memorial is a despicable attack on a sacred monument honoring the Americans who fought and died for our freedom. Those Americans include my father and grandfather,” Pirro said.

Pirro stated that her office has filed two felony charges—Depredation Against Property of the United States and Destruction of Veterans’ Memorials—in Federal District Court against Farris, offenses that carry penalties of up to ten years in prison. Farris is currently in custody.

According to court documents, U.S. Park Police launched an investigation after red paint was found on the walls and floor of the Atlantic pavilion and a substance poured into the fountain causing it to bubble. A witness photographed Farris during what authorities described as the act of spray painting the memorial on Thursday before she fled. The video evidence later identified her as the suspect.

In an affidavit filed by U.S. Park Police, it was noted that a U.S. Park Police officer recognized Farris as someone they had arrested on August 10 for unlawfully camping on federal property near the memorial. At that time, she possessed a Kentucky driver’s license.

A video posted to Facebook showed Farris shaking a can of spray paint and then painting the memorial. In the livestream, she said: “It was me, I’m doing it, I did it, it’s on camera.” Another video appeared online Friday morning showing Farris turning herself in after authorities responded to a call for a disorderly person.

Pirro’s office recently dropped charges against former Olympic canoeist David “Davey” Hearn in connection with an incident at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, stating that the damage was “the result of flawed installation.” A judge had dismissed the charge against Hearn but had not yet determined whether to bar Pirro’s office from pursuing future charges.
