Jamison Wagner, 40, has been charged with federal arson related to two incidents in New Mexico—one at a Tesla showroom in Albuquerque, resulting in severe damage to vehicles, and another at the Republican Party's office, which included graffiti. His arrest highlights a broader concern over political violence, with statements from the DOJ emphasizing the prosecution of such acts. The involvement of an FBI agent specializing in terrorism underscores the seriousness of these crimes, linking them to recent national tensions surrounding political and social issues.
"Let this be the final lesson to those taking part in this ongoing wave of political violence. We will arrest you, we will prosecute you, and we will not negotiate. Crimes have consequences."
The arrest warrant alleges that Wagner is responsible for a February 9 incident at a Tesla showroom in which windows were shattered and two Tesla Model Ys were set on fire.
