Three people accused of destroying Tesla cars and charging stations are facing up to 20 years in prison for “domestic terrorism,” US Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday.
“The days of committing crimes without consequence have ended,” Bondi said in a statement.
One allegedly carried a suppressed AR-15 rifle while lobbing eight Molotov cocktails at an Oregon Tesla dealership, while another os accused of trying to light Tesla cars on fire with the same explosives in Loveland, Colorado.
The third allegedly vandalized charging stations for the electric cars with profane anti-Trump rhetoric, then torched them with Molotov cocktails, according to the US Department of Justice.
“Let this be a warning: if you join this wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, the Department of Justice will put you behind bars,” she added.
