A Kentucky woman accused of spray-painting the National World War II Memorial while recording herself has now been indicted on two federal felony counts. Melissa Farris, 41, allegedly defaced the memorial’s Atlantic Theatre Pavilion and filled its fountain with foam on August 13th. Prosecutors said she later posted videos discussing the vandalism and asking viewers to circulate the footage. Each charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.
A federal grand jury returned the indictment against Farris on August 27th in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. She was charged with one count of destruction of a veterans’ memorial and one count of destruction of government property. Farris, who is from Elizabethtown, Kentucky, is scheduled to return to court for a hearing on September 3rd.
