Hennepin County, Minnesota, attorney Mary Moriarty keeps our home state in the national spotlight for yet another day, and never for anything positive.
Her refusal to charge a local, six-time Tesla vandal for any crimes is making national and international news. I first wrote about the story over the weekend for two reasons: (1) the suspect, Dylan Bryan Adams, was a state government employee, and (2) no local legacy new outlets would publish his name, even after his arrest and a press conference held on the case by the Minneapolis city police.
National and international outlets had no such qualms in naming Adams, age 33 of Minneapolis. Now comes Moriarty with her refusal to charge the case and the story has blown up.
The New York Post is up with a blistering editorial this evening: Woke Minnesota DA lets Tesla thug walk, signaling it’s open season on Team Trump.
Not to mention the Post‘s news story: Minnesota state employee who allegedly caused over $20K in damages to Teslas is let off by woke DA — as cops slam deal.
From other news pages, here and abroad:
UK Daily Mail: America’s wokest DA’s infuriating punishment for Tim Walz worker who keyed six Teslas causing $21k damage.
Fox News: Tesla vandalism suspect faces diversion instead of charges in Minnesota.
Washington Times: Tesla vandal suspect Dylan Adams will not face criminal changes, gets ‘diversion’.
The local Fox network station is having their story picked up by out-of-state affiliates: Fox 4-Dallas, Fox-5 Atlanta, Fox-26 Houston.
Even outlets that normally pay little attention to Minnesota local politics: Zerohedge and National Review are chiming in.
We could use a day off from national attention.
