On Saturday, FBI agents arrested Jamison Wagner, accused of firebombing a Tesla showroom and a Republican Party office in New Mexico. Wagner was found shirtless during the raid and is facing up to 40 years in prison for two counts of malicious damage or destruction of property. The attacks occurred on February 9th and March 30th, with Wagner allegedly lighting vehicles on fire, spray-painting swastikas and graffiti, and damaging the party office’s front entrance.
Authorities used surveillance footage and traced a white 2015 Hyundai Accent to track down Wagner. Stencils with graffiti matching the attacks and suspected incendiary devices were found during a search of his home. The FBI credited Attorney General Pam Bondi and Director Kash Patel’s leadership in swiftly arresting Wagner. The graffiti at the Tesla showroom was aimed at Elon Musk, sparking outrage among Democrats over his alleged influence.
Following Wagner’s arrest, Bondi announced that no plea deal would be offered, calling the acts “domestic terrorism”. The FBI task force, which includes agents from various departments, was dedicated to finding those responsible for the attacks. Wagner’s arrest marks a crackdown on political violence, with Bondi emphasizing that those involved will be arrested and prosecuted. The DOJ warned that crimes have consequences, sending a strong message to potential perpetrators of similar attacks.
