US Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced charges Friday against a woman who allegedly vandalized the capital's World War II Memorial by pouring bubble soap into its fountain and spray-painting a cryptic message on its stone edifice. Pirro said in an X post that prosecutors in her office were filing two felony charges against Melissa L. Farris, accusing her of depredation against property of the US and destruction of veterans' memorials.
