Intention to commit a crime, even if you don’t actually commit the crime but attempt to do so, as it happens, is also a crime.
In this case, the individual attempted (and failed) to destroy Flock camera. He’ll be charged with felony attempted destruction of property and probably a handful of other bullshit charges to scare him in to pleading out of trial.
In this case the prosecutor really doesn’t want to go to trial. If he gets a lawyer he’ll most certainly get out of any jail time and might do community service. If he takes the lawyer they give him, he’s fucked.
