The bronze statue of Melania Trump was stolen from her hometown of Sevnica, Slovenia, prompting an investigation that began on May 13. This sculpture, designed by American artist Brad Downey, replaced a wooden version that was burned shortly after its installation in 2020. The bronze statue, which is more abstract in design, lasted longer than its predecessor but was also vandalized, cut off at the ankles. Downey expressed his sadness over the theft and speculated that the incident might be politically motivated, though neither Trump has visited the site.
