Los Angeles:
The US Department of Justice said on Monday that a man allegedly tortured two vehicles at a Tesla dealership and portrayed “dye alone” on the side of the building.
The allegations are the latest to be implemented in relation to attacks on the EV manufacturer, whose boss Elon Musk has become a hatred figure for some people on his role in killing the government as the top advisor of President Donald Trump.
On 9 February, two Tesla vehicles were badly damaged in the firebomb attack on a showroom in Albuquruck, and Musk and his company were sprinkled on the walls than the Nazis.
The 40 -year -old Jemison Wagner, who lives in the city, in the western state of New Mexico, was also accused on a firebomb attack, who killed an office of the Republican Party of the state last month.
If malicious damage or fire or explosives are convicted in two cases of destruction of property, he may be jailed up to 20 years on each count, the Department of Justice said.
Attorney General Palm Bondi said in a statement, “Let this last lesson for those who participated in this ongoing wave of political violence.”
“We will arrest you, we will prosecute you, and we will not talk. The results of crimes are.”
The federal prosecution gave a rigorous punishment compared to the local law, where such a crime usually leads to an 18 -month underdeveloped and a fine of $ 5,000. In March, Trump also suggested that those who vandalize Tesla property could be sent to jails in Al Salvador.
Tesla and South Africa-born billionaire chief Musk, born in South Africa, are taking Trump’s cruel cost-cut-cut drive to the head of the so-called Government Efficiency Department (DOGE).
Appreciation to the right, he has become increasingly one of the most controversial figures in the country.
Many Tesla dealerships and many cars around the US and the world have been barbaric, and the company’s share price has hit a hammer.
