A fashion designer from Pennsylvania, who once proudly posted selfies with white supremacist Nick Fuentes and Donald Trump ally Roger Stone, has been arrested on charges related to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol after FBI agents said they were able to identify him through shoes, a lapel pin and other clothes that he wore on Jan. 6 and featured in photos on Instagram. Tristan Sartor was charged with four counts including felony charges of entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds and disorderly conduct. He was also charged with misdemeanor counts of parading, demonstrating or picketing and disorderly conduct. He was arrested in Ruffs Dale, Pennsylvania, on July 31. (…) A court order and the minute entry on the docket show he posted $25,000 bond and was released on the day of his arrest, July 31. Notably, another post on Sartor’s account features a June 2023 selfie with Donald Trump’s confidant and self-professed Proud Boy Roger Stone. Sartor also appeared to espouse support on social media for a figure at the center of the far-right Groyper movement, the admitted white supremacist Nick Fuentes. Groypers are described by the Anti-Defamation League as pro-white, pro-European-American and anti-Semitic. According to a statement of facts, Sartor was seen entering the Capitol with a mass of other rioters at 2:19 p.m. including individuals carrying America First movement flags. Sartor entered through a busted-out Senate Wing doorway and was in the Capitol for only a few minutes, court records show. FBI agents first identified Sartor on Instagram through his “cocktails_and_coattails” account which featured “unique clothing items” consistent with images of him from open-source footage on Jan. 6, the FBI said. An Instagram post about a pair of his distinctive boots that he wore on a previous trip to Washington, D.C., also gave him away, an FBI affidavit shows.
