Today, Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced charges against three individuals responsible for the violent destruction of Tesla properties. All three defendants will face the full force of the law for using Molotov cocktails to set fire to Tesla cars and charging stations.
βThe days of committing crimes without consequence have ended,β said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. βLet this be a warning: if you join this wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, the Department of Justice will put you behind bars.β
One defendant, also armed with a suppressed AR-15 rifle, was arrested after throwing approximately eight Molotov cocktails at a Tesla dealership located in Salem, Oregon.
Another was arrested in Loveland, Colorado after attempting to light Teslas on fire with Molotov cocktails. The defendant was later found in possession of materials used to produce additional incendiary weapons.
In Charleston, South Carolina, a third defendant wrote profane messages against President Trump around Tesla charging stations before lighting the charging stations on fire with Molotov cocktails.
Each defendant faces serious charges carrying a minimum penalty of five years and up to 20 years in prison.
Indeed when one takes into account the intent of the crime (i.e. to damage Tesla owners, because the perp disagrees with Musk), it increases the seriousness - even as keying a car or whatever is considered petty.
Seems fair enough. Its "insurrection", lock them up without trial like what happened to the J6ers. After all they said being let in to the Capital building by the Capital police was "worse than Pearl Harbour", fire-bombing a Tesla dealership seems far worse that going on guided tours by the Capital Police.
5 years is not a severe penalty for terrorism. Terrorism prisoners are usually held for most of their lives.
Not only that when they go to court the judges wont even give them the minimum they will let them out with time served.
Unless you take them to gitmo and try them there.
Federal crime... Federal time. 5 years = 5 years. 20 years = 20 years.
No time off for good behavior, no leniency. The Federal sentence = federal prison time.
The left has been judge shopping i am sure we can do the same
I agree they'll be out on good behavior in two and a half. They should be doing at least 15 to 20.
Should be making license plates until the damages are paid off.
I wonder is soros,will bail them out, this time.
I think not.
India raided 8 different offices of G Soros

Music to my ears!!! Iβm so happy to see them have consequences as they should! It shows that we are indeed on a new path! Thanks for posting!
What consequences? She said minimum 5, maximum 20.
Terrorists do usually life. What will happen is they will get a dumb judge that wont even give them the minimum. That is not justice.
people have been arrested ?! is it true ?!

Iven keying a car,can be felony charges,as it's expensive to fix. Someone was chaged with it recently.
Considering they don't have a pot to piss in for restitution
Don't have the reparation moneys? do the time.

Amen.
I hear that Bondi also wants to make it a hate crime if the car has a Star of David emblem/sticker ....kek
