The Justice Department will launch an inquiry into the individuals and networks stealing government property and threatening government employees.
Ed Martin, the Acting US Attorney for DC, sent Elon Musk a letter informing him that he will be launching an inquiry after a referral from DOGE.
“Thank you for the referral of individuals and networks who appear to be stealing government property and/or threatening government employees. After your referral, as is my practice, I will begin an inquiry,” Ed Martin wrote in a letter to Elon Musk.
Earlier this week Ed Martin announced his office would be charging and arresting individuals who threatened Elon Musk’s DOGE team.
Ed Martin did not name any names as he announced that arrests and charges were coming. It is unclear which laws were violated.
“Our initial review of the evidence presented to us indicates that certain individuals and/or groups have committed acts that appear to violate the law in targeting DOGE employees,” Ed Martin said.
“We are in contact with the FBI and other law-enforcement partners to proceed rapidly. We also have our prosecutors preparing,” Ed Martin added.
