In a bizarre act of vandalism, messages sprayed in yellow paint defaced buildings surrounding the late Ivana Trump's Upper East Side townhouse, some of which disturbingly signaled a threat with the provocation, “We killing u for Ivana Trump. God said hi,” as reported by The New York Post. Police were called to East 64th Street around 1 a.m. Friday, where alongside the aforementioned threat, images captured phrases like "Illuminati," "Murder Inc." and "777" scrawled across the walls, with "We coming 4 you" ominously sprayed amongst the cryptic references.
No arrests have yet to stem from the incident, and at this time, police have not released any suspect descriptions, and furthermore the situation is not being investigated as a hate crime, as per ABC7NY. The expanse of the graffiti reached several townhouses in the vicinity of the property that once belonged to Ivana Trump, who passed away in July 2022, nonetheless the significance or the motivation behind these messages remain shrouded in uncertainty.
Other inscribed messages referenced Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's daughter, pairing her name with terms such as "murdering" and "my queen," creating a concerning collage of statements; this documentation brought forward by ABC7NY further complicates the narrative woven in paint across these storied edifices. The severity of the rhetoric used in the vandalism triggers alarm as authorities continue to piece together the perpetrator's intent and any possible implications.
The marked townhouse, a substantial piece of real estate currently listed for $19.5 million as stated by Street Easy records, was owned by Ivana Trump who acquired the property after her divorce from Donald Trump in 1992 for what would be about $5.4 million in today’s currency, according to The New York Post. Although the late socialite's former husband didn't inherit directly from her estate, probate records ascertain that her real estate assets, which also include properties in the Czech Republic and France, have been entrusted into the joint control of President Trump and his grown children.
