DOJ Investigates Tesla Vandalism Case Prosecutor Over Race-Based Policy

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is looking into whether a Minnesota prosecutor’s office is violating the Constitution by pledging to factor defendants’ skin color into plea deals. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon announced on Saturday that the DOJ will review the new policy at Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty’s office to see “whether the [office] is engaged in a pattern or practice of depriving persons of rights,” as described in a letter to Hennepin County. The probe adds to ongoing scrutiny of Moriarty’s policies since she came into the spotlight in April for refusing to prosecute a state official who vandalized Tesla vehicles.
