Truelove faces charges connected to the studio incident, including felony burglary and misdemeanor menacing, with hate-crime allegations also involved, according to the information provided.
His reported criminal history dates back decades. In 2007, he was convicted of attempting to abduct an 8-year-old child from a school in Norfolk, Virginia.
Court records in New York also reportedly show pending cases involving a man with the same name and age. Those cases include an alleged assault at the NYPD’s 5th Precinct in January, trespassing and reckless-endangerment allegations involving the city’s transit system in May, and a 12-count criminal-mischief indictment from last year. The allegations and charges remain matters for the courts, and they should not be treated as proof of guilt unless established through legal proceedings.
