An Ohio pro-Trump rioter wore a sweatshirt bearing his company’s name and contact information to the Capitol riots on January 6.
Troy Faulkner can be clearly seen on the exterior of the Capitol in a “Faulkner Painting” sweatshirt bearing the company phone number while he kicked in a window.
In an affidavit supporting a criminal complaint against him the FBI agent wrote that Faulkner was wearing a tan jacket with an advertisement for “Faulkner Painting” on the back of it. The affidavit also included a screenshot of Faulkner at the riot in the jacket along a with a social media comment that read: “Jeez man, you wore your company jacket into the middle of the insurrection.”
Faulkner told a local Ohio news outlet, “I knew I shouldn’t have kicked in the window. I was upset and wasn’t thinking rationally.”
He was arrested last week. He faces several charges including knowingly engaging in an act of physical violence against any person or property in a restricted building.
