The FBI and the Justice Department announced on Monday that the suspect in the new “arson attacks” against the Republican Party of New Mexico’s office and the Tesla Albuquerque Showroom has been detained and charged by the Justice Department.
The Justice Department announced in a press release on Monday that federal costs had been brought against Jamison Wagner, 40, for the new “arson attacks” that targeted the Tesla service and the state GOP offices. The 40-year-old believe had been linked to both fire incidents, according to the Justice Department, according to the Justice Department’s explanation of image data and monitoring footage.
Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a press release released on Monday that “let this be the last lesson to those who are engaged in this ongoing storm of political crime.” We may arrest you, bring charges against you, and not discuss. Acts have consequences.
According to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, “hurling firebombs” constitutes” a dangerous felony that we will sue to the full level” but is not considered “political protest.”
Blanche continued,” We are coming for you, you didn’t obscure, and you will do major prison time… pay for your crimes. The remarkable work by law enforcement in New Mexico sends a clear message to the perpetrators of all of the terrible attacks on Tesla facilities and social establishments.”

The second fire strike, according to the Justice Department, took place on February 9 and involved two Tesla cars being targeted with an explosive device at the Tesla Albuquerque Showroom. In one of the vehicles, authorities discovered an “intact glass vessel containing an impromptu napalm stuff.” The Justice Department added that symbols and the phrases” Die Tesla Nazi”,” Die Elon”, and” Tesla Nazi Inc.” were displayed on the exterior of the Tesla factory and six other cars.
The Justice Department stated in a press release on Monday that the following arson attack took place on March 30 at the New Mexico GOP office. The fire” considerably damaged the front door and access place,” according to the Justice Department, and the GOP offices building had the phrase “ICE = KKK” painted on it.
Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Kash Patel stated that Wagner’s arrest is a result of the company’s “aggressive efforts to investigate and hold accountable those who have targeted Tesla features in several state across the country.”
Under Attorney General Bondi’s guidance, Patel continued to find and detain those responsible for these domestic terrorist functions, and the FBI may work with colleagues at the Department of Justice to make sure these inmates are brought to justice.
