FBI seizes ‘150 pipe bombs’ in largest bust in history
The US Department of Justice is fighting against the release of a 36-year-old Virginia man whose home was raided in mid-December, resulting in what federal prosecutors have described as the “largest seizure of homemade explosives in FBI history.”
Federal agents arrested Brad Spafford at his farm in Smithfield on December 17, following a raid based on a criminal complaint alleging he was in possession of an unregistered short-barrel rifle.
During a search of his property, FBI agents found a stockpile of explosives, some marked as “lethal,” primarily stored in a detached garage, while several were allegedly “preloaded into an apparent wearable vest.” Additional devices were discovered in a backpack in his bedroom, which bore a hand grenade patch and the phrase “#NoLivesMatter.”
