The Illinois man accused of painting swastikas on more than 200 gravestones across Memorial Day weekend has had a long history of run-ins with the law, reportedly ranging from trying to punch an officer to writing letters to a judge blasting the country’s “crooked” legal system.
Timothy V. McLean, a 34-year-old from Glen Carbon, was charged this week with several felonies for the alleged acts this past weekend at Sunset Hill Cemetery.
But it is not the first time he has been accused of plastering the Nazi symbol on public property, police said.
They allege McLean also has painted swastikas on houses in a neighboring town, cars, mailboxes, at a country club and even three churches dating back to the start of April.
McLean has been hit with numerous hate crime and felony charges stemming from these alleged incidents.
