Break-in at Trump campaign office — unidentified suspect still at large



A caught-on-camera suspect broke into former President Donald Trump's Virginia campaign office over the weekend.

The suspect was described by Northern Virginia's Loudoun County Sheriff's Office as a "white adult male, wearing dark clothing, a dark cap, and a backpack."

Surveillance video captured the suspect breaking into the location and walking through the office, according to a sheriff's office spokesperson. The sheriff's office was contacted about the break-in at around 9:00 p.m. on Sunday.

Photographs of the suspect have been released to the public in an attempt to identify him as he remains at large. The images appear to show the man either opening or placing items into his backpack. However, authorities have not confirmed whether anything was taken from the office.

Sheriff Mike Chapman stated, "It is rare to have the office of any political campaign or party broken into."

"We are determined to identify the suspect, investigate why it happened, and determine what may have been taken, as well as what may have been left behind," Chapman added.

The campaign office also serves as the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee.

Neither the Trump campaign nor the committee responded to a request for comment from the Associated Press.

Anything else?

The reported break-in comes just one day after the campaign confirmed that an Iranian group hacked its internal communications in June, Blaze News previously reported. As part of the breach, hackers released a 271-page document that listed publicly available information about vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio). The document noted Vance's previous criticisms of Trump, which were labeled as "potential vulnerabilities." Hackers also leaked part of a similar report regarding research on Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who was one of Trump's top potential running-mate picks.

Microsoft released a report Friday that claimed an "Iranian group, this one connected with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or IRGC, sent a spear phishing email in June to a high-ranking official on a presidential campaign." However, the report did not identify the targeted presidential campaign.

Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung told Politico, "These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process."

"The Iranians know that President Trump will stop their reign of terror just like he did in his first four years in the White House," Cheung added. "Any media or news outlet reprinting documents or internal communications are doing the bidding of America's enemies and doing exactly what they want."

Former teacher arrested for alleged rape of teen boy after routine traffic stop reveals shocking allegations



A routine traffic stop exposed shocking allegations against a former teacher from Idaho. The ex-teacher is accused of having sex with a minor and plying the teenage boy with alcohol and marijuana.

An officer with the Saint Anthony Police Department pulled over a vehicle for having no visible tail lights on Nov. 6, according to court documents. A teenage boy was reportedly in the driver's seat during the traffic stop. Police determined that the car belonged to 36-year-old Jessica Lawson.

East Idaho News reported, "The teenager told the officer that Lawson had allowed him to drive her car 'due to her being too drunk to drive,' according to police reports. Court documents say the minor admitted to having marijuana and was driven home by the officer."

In the morning, the parents of the minor contacted the Saint Anthony Police Department to report that their son had an improper relationship with Lawson — a former teacher at South Fremont High School.

The boy alleged that Lawson got drunk, and she provided him with marijuana before the two had sex.

According to KIFI-TV, "Lawson later called the boy's mother and admitted to picking him up, driving him to her home and giving him alcohol."

Court documents say Lawson admitted to picking the teen up from his house, taking him to her house, and providing him with alcohol. However, she reportedly denied supplying marijuana to the boy but admitted that she had the drug in her home. Lawson allegedly denied that "anything else had occurred."

Police later arrested Lawson. She was charged with two felony counts of rape of a victim between 16 and 17 years old and whom the perpetrator was three or more years older than, as well as a felony count of controlled substance delivery, and the misdemeanor of dispensing alcohol to a minor, according to online records.

Lawson was booked into the Madison County Jail, and her bond is set at $250,000. Lawson has been ordered not to have any contact with the victim.

If convicted, Lawson faces up to life behind bars.

A spokesperson for the Freemont County School District told Law & Crime that Lawson had worked as a high school teacher from 2021 to the spring of 2023.

Lawson is no longer listed on the school’s staff page.
