Woke DA in Minn won't prosecute Tesla Vandal
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] One of the nation's most progressive district attorneys has decided that a Minnesota state employee who keyed six Teslas will not be criminally prosecuted.

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty will not file charges against 33-year-old Dylan Bryan Adams after he reportedly admitted to causing around $21,000 in damages during four separate incidents.

Adams will instead be entered into an adult diversion program for first-time, low-level offenders, which could even allow him to keep his job as a program consultant at the state's Department of Human Services.....

The Minneapolis police department reacted angrily to the DA's decision, distancing itself from it.

'The Minneapolis Police Department did its job. It identified and investigated a crime trend, identified, and arrested a suspect, and presented a case file to the Hennepin County Attorney Office for consideration of charges,' Chief Brian O’Hara said in a statement.

'Any frustration related to the charging decision of the Hennepin County Attorney should be directed solely at her office. Our investigators are always frustrated when the cases they poured their hearts into are declined. In my experience, the victims in these cases often feel the same.'

#2 If the state DA will not move, let's turn the vandalism into a federal crime. Howzabout invoking the Interstate Commerce Clause?
That can be stretched to cover pretty much anything. If cars are likely to be vandalized, people will not buy them, therefore reducing interstate commerce. QED, bitches!
