    this article is actually decent. https://www.npr.org/2020/07/01/882075310/lawyers-charged-with-seven-felonies-in-molotov-cocktail-attack-out-on-bail

    when i first heard life in prison was on the table it seemed disgusting, especially for a molotov that didn't explode. getting charged with arson and the likes for literally no fire is wrong, but apparently it's also unheard of for a molotov case to be tried this harshly. using the bullshit commerce clause they can try it as a federal case and have minimum 30 yrs in prison if found guilty
