Transgender faces federal charges for crimes against Tesla Dealership

Justin Thomas Nelson, 40, was arrested and faces felony charges involving crimes of vandalism and planting incendiary devices at a Tesla dealership in Colorado. Nelson also uses the name Lucy Grace Nelson when he dresses up like a woman. The Maine Wire reported more details on the transgender crime against Tesla:

Police told Fox News that the vandalism included “very offensive messages, derogatory in nature,” though the incendiary devices were not detonated. On Monday night, Nelson returned to the Tesla dealership carrying materials associated with prior vandalism, along with additional incendiary devices. Authorities arrested him before he could do any additional damage to the dealership.

 

Nelson faces multiple felony charges, including Explosives or Incendiary Devices Use During a Felony, a class two felony, Criminal Mischief $2,000 < $5,000 Business, a class six felony, and Criminal Attempt to Commit a Class Three Felony, a class four felony. He was issued a $100,000 cash surety bond, and authorities say they are working with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, and that additional federal charges are likely.
