Judge orders release of UMass student accused of Tesla firebombing so he can continue sex change
A
progressive judge apparently figures an alleged firebomber's uninterrupted sex change trumps public safety.
A 19-year-old Kansas City man was arrested in Massachusetts last month in connection with the March 17 firebombing of the Missouri Tesla Center.
Owen McIntire, a University of Massachusetts physics student who returned home for spring break, allegedly tossed a pair of Molotov cocktails into the Kansas City dealership, damaging a pair of charging stations and two Cybertrucks, each valued at over $105,000. McIntire was slapped with federal criminal charges: one count of unlawful possession of an unregistered destructive device and one count of malicious damage by fire of any property used in interstate commerce.
Despite protest from attorneys for the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Western District of Missouri, a progressive Boston-based judge granted McIntire's petition for release from federal custody on April 24, partly to ensure that he could continue his sex change.
