A woman who was among the pro-Trump mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 2021 was charged after her ex-boyfriend reported her to the FBI.
Jennifer Inzunza Vargas Geller was charged with four misdemeanor counts on Monday: entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building, disorderly conduct in the Capitol grounds or buildings and unlawfully parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.
Geller was not in custody on Monday, but there’s a warrant out for her arrest, according to NBC News.
Geller, who was seen on surveillance video storming the Capitol wearing a pink beret, was identified last weekend by an ex-boyfriend who recognized her from a FBI tweet that went viral in April.
“I stopped dead in my tracks,” he said. “I’m like, ‘That’s Jenny.’”
Geller’s ex told NBC News that he met her online in late 2018 and they hit it off “really well.” But, their relationship ended months later when he found out about her far-right politics and her interest in Hitler’s “Mein Kampf.”
“I was just instantly turned off, like, ‘Yo, I don’t think this is going to work out,’” he said. “You’re, like, reading ‘Mein Kampf,’ you think immigrants don’t deserve X, Y, Z.”
