RUFFS DALE, PA—Tristan Sartor, a Pennsylvania-based fashion designer known for his social media posts with figures like Nick Fuentes and Roger Stone, has been arrested and charged with multiple offenses related to the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The FBI identified Sartor through distinctive clothing items he wore during the riot, which he had previously featured on his Instagram account.
Sartor faces four counts, including felony charges of entering and remaining in a restricted building and disorderly conduct, as well as misdemeanor counts of parading, demonstrating, or picketing and additional disorderly conduct charges.
He was apprehended in Ruffs Dale, Pennsylvania, on July 31 and has since posted a $25,000 bond, securing his release the same day.
Social media has played a pivotal role in Sartor’s identification, with the FBI tracing back to his “cocktails_and_coattails” Instagram account. Items like a distinctive pair of boots previously highlighted in an Instagram post about a trip to Washington, D.C., contributed to his arrest.
