The Justice Department has charged Jamison R. Wagner, 40, with federal arson-related crimes for vandalizing a Tesla dealership in New Mexico and setting fire to the headquarters of the state Republican Party. The arrest is part of a crackdown on domestic terrorism targeting property associated with Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk. Wagner is also charged in connection with a fire at the New Mexico Republican Party headquarters. Authorities found evidence linking Wagner to both crimes, including incendiary devices and spray paint with messages matching those found at the crime scenes. The Republican Party expressed relief that no one was harmed and is committed to ensuring justice is served. The Justice Department has charged four other cases related to attacks on Tesla cars and fire stations with Molotov cocktails. Bondi has stated that plea deals will not be offered to those involved in these attacks. The FBI has formed a task force to coordinate investigations with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Wagner has been ordered to remain detained pending a detention hearing, and his attorney has not responded to requests for comment.
