The Loudoun County Sheriffโ€™s Office has identified the suspect in the break-in at Donald Trumpโ€™s 2024 campaign office in Ashburn, Virginia, as 39-year-old Toby Shane Kessler.

The Trump for President 2024 campaign office, located in the 20000 block of Ashbrook Place, also serves as the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee.

The break-in was captured on surveillance video on Sunday, August 11, showing Kessler forcing entry through a back door. Although the footage reveals Kesslerโ€™s brief presence inside, it remains unclear whether he stole anything.

The LCSO announced that Kessler is wanted on charges of burglary under Virginia Code ยง 18.2-91, which prohibits entering a dwelling with the intent to commit larceny or other felonies.

LCSO released the following press release:

The Loudoun County Sheriffโ€™s Office (LCSO) has secured a warrant for the arrest of Toby Shane Kessler, 39, of no fixed address, on the charge of Burglary (Code of Virginia: ยง 18.2-91.

Entering dwelling house, etc., with intent to commit larceny, assault and battery or other felony) in connection with the break in at the local office of Trump for President 2024 campaign in Ashburn, VA, on August 11, 2024.

The office, in the 20000 block of Ashbrook Place, is being leased by the Trump campaign and also serves as the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee.

The burglary occurred at approximately 8:11 pm and was captured by surveillance video inside the office. The LCSOโ€™s investigation determined that Mr. Kessler forced entry into a back door of the location and spent a brief period of time inside before leaving. He appears to have left nothing behind, and it is still unclear what, if anything, he took with him. The investigation is ongoing.

The LCSO is working with other law enforcement agencies to locate Mr. Kessler and is asking the publicโ€™s assistance. He is a white adult male, and was wearing dark clothing, a dark cap, and a backpack when he entered the location. Mr. Kessler has a history of criminal behavior and appears to have been in the Washington metropolitan area at least since 2018. He has a California driverโ€™s license.

X user Freedom Piper shed light on Kesslerโ€™s extensive criminal past, noting that his history of crimes dates back nearly a decade. The suspect has been arrested for a variety of offenses, ranging from assault and battery to robbery and grand theft, often committed while on bail.

His criminal record paints a disturbing picture of repeated failures in the justice system, with numerous instances of Kessler being released only to reoffend shortly afterward.
