Former Hill staffer charged for allegedly staging her own violent assault
Natalie Greene faces federal charges for paying an artist $500 to injure herself and falsely report a politically motivated assault, officials said.
- On July 23, 2025 Greene and a co-conspirator called 911 reporting they were attacked by three men on a trail at the Egg Harbor Township Nature Preserve, and officers found Natalie Greene, 26, lying bound with multiple lacerations.
- Federal prosecutors allege Greene staged the incident to blame anti-Trump actors and tie the assault to her work for Federal Official 1, while the co-conspirator told dispatchers the attackers referenced Greene by name and her employment.
- Investigators found Greene paid a body‑modification scarification artist $500, provided a cut pattern, and the artist's after‑procedure photos and messages matched her injuries, while records show she followed online bodymods/scarification communities and obtained studio directions.
- Greene appeared in federal court on Nov. 19 and was released on a $200,000 unsecured bond; she faces charges with penalties up to five years and $250,000 per count.
- Van Drew's office confirmed Greene previously worked for Jefferson Van Drew, U.S. Representative for New Jersey's 2nd District, and said it was 'deeply saddened' and offered 'thoughts and prayers' for her recovery, while the indictment refers to him as 'Federal Official 1'.
