Attorney General Pam Bondi announced federal charges against three individuals accused of vandalism and property crime on Tesla dealerships and charging stations in Oregon, Colorado, and South Carolina. Labeling the attacks as domestic terrorism, Bondi didn’t mince words, promising severe penalties ranging from five to 20 years behind bars. From Reuters:
“The three people in the arson cases include Lucy Grace Nelson, 42, who was charged in February with possession of a destructive device and malicious destruction of property used in interstate commerce. Nelson has pleaded not guilty and been released on bond. Nelson was spotted at a Tesla dealership in Loveland, Colorado, on several occasions in January and February, according to a criminal complaint. Police found a container of gasoline, a box of bottles and wick material in Nelson’s car, according to the complaint.“
