America’s wokest DA has been accused of flouting her own rules to ensure a Minnesota state worker walked free after keying six Teslas.  

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty’s office recently announced that charges against Dylan Bryan Adams, 33, have been dropped. Adams confessed to causing approximately $21,000 in damages across four separate incidents.

Instead of facing charges, Adams will be enrolled in an adult diversion program designed for first-time, low-level offenders. This alternative could potentially allow him to maintain his position as a program consultant at the state’s Department of Human Services.

The decision made by Moriarty’s office has not been well-received, with even the typically left-leaning Minnesota Star Tribune criticizing the move. In an editorial, the newspaper highlighted Moriarty’s office policy, which specifies that diversion programs are typically reserved for property crimes involving less than $5,000.

Bryan – whose ultimate boss is Minnesota’s Democrat Governor Tim Walz – caused more than four times that amount of damage but won’t even have a conviction to his name.  

‘Moriarty either ignored it or bent it to fit a narrative,’ columnist Brandi Bennet writes.

‘Either way, the public is left wondering: What exactly are the rules in Hennepin County, and who are they written to protect?’

DailyMail.com has reached out to Moriarty’s office for comment on her diversion policy. 

Moriarty, a career public defender before becoming district attorney, has faced mounting criticism for her soft-on-crime approach, often prioritizing leniency over public safety.

Moriarty tried to defend her decision on Wednesday, telling the Tribune the move was not politically motivated.

‘We try to make decisions without really looking at the political consequences,’ she said. ‘Can we always predict how a story will be portrayed in the media or what people will say? No.’

The Minneapolis police department reacted angrily to the DA’s decision to let Adams go free, amid claims Moriarty regularly snubs strong cases presented by investigators as part of her soft-on-crime ‘equity-centered’ approach. 

‘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.’ 

Minnesota’s DHS told the local outlet they are reviewing Adams’ case when asked if he would keep his job, and added that ‘State employees are expected to follow our code of conduct and hold themselves to the highest ethical standards through their words and actions.’ 

DA Moriarty has previously been accused of being soft on crime; since obtaining the position in 2023, she has angered victims’ relatives with her recommendations for sentencing – even clashing with the liberal George Soros-backed attorney general for Minnesota, Keith Ellison.

Adams was captured on vehicle surveillance footage dragging a key across the exteriors of several Teslas

Adams’ vandalism incidents came after Minnesota governor and Kamala Harris’ running mare Tim Walz said that watching Tesla stock drop gave him ‘a little boost during the day’ 

Police say Adams was repeatedly caught on camera vandalizing parked Teslas with his keys while out walking his dog.

Adams’ vandalism incidents came just weeks after Minnesota governor and Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz said that watching Tesla stock drop gave him ‘a little boost during the day.’

Disturbing surveillance videos showed Adams approaching the vehicles from across the street, leash in one hand, while pulling his keys from his pocket with the other.

In one clip, he allegedly carved into the rear of a Tesla. In another, he seemingly targeted the side of the vehicle nearest the sidewalk, again using his key to scratch a deep line across the car’s body.

The specific markings or messages he allegedly etched remain unclear.

In a separate clip, Adams – seen wearing a rust-colored beanie, a dark gray sweatshirt and black vest – crossed the road before allegedly dragging his key from the driver’s side door to the rear of the vehicle, then casually walking away.

Yet another video showed him in a different outfit – this time a black winter jacket and a burgundy Minnesota Gophers hat – allegedly repeating the same act of vandalism as he walks by another Tesla with his dog.

A fourth clip, believed to have been recorded in the parking lot of Target, showed Adams exiting his vehicle while wearing a Golden State Warriors jersey over a light gray hoodie.

He then walked toward a nearby Tesla, readied his key and seemingly scratched into the paint before fleeing the scene undisturbed.

One of the victims said they’d bought their Tesla before owner Elon Musk had been appointed to the Trump administration and said the car had a sticker on it explaining its owner was not a Trump supporter.  

Adams’ arrest comes amid a wave of vandalism incidents against Elon Musk’s company as the billionaire works with the Donald Trump administration to reduce government spending.

The Justice Department has said it is treating the vandalism as domestic terrorism and has charged at least five cases against people accused of using Molotov cocktails to destroy Tesla cars and fire stations. 

The FBI last month created a task force to coordinate investigate efforts around the attacks with officials at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has suggested prosecutors will make no plea deals with those charged in the Tesla attacks, telling the president at the White House that ‘there will be no negotiations, at your directive.’
