ELK GROVE, IL (CBS) — An Elk Grove Village man’s Facebook profile picture got the FBI’s attention — and now he is facing federal charges. Marcos Gleffe is accused of entering the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 insurrection, and waving a Trump flag. Gleffe’s Facebook picture shows him outside the Capitol.
The U.S. Department of Justice has identified and charged 13 people from Illinois with participating in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol. One of them, Bradley Rukstales, pleaded guilty to charges this week.
