    FBI Seizes 150+ Homemade Bombs in Virginia, One of the Largest Explosive Finds Ever

    In a jaw-dropping discovery, the FBI seized over 150 homemade bombs, including pipe bombs and other deadly devices, from a Virginia home, marking one of the largest explosive hauls in FBI history. The raid occurred after Brad Spafford, 36, was arrested on firearms charges in December.

    During a search of his residence, agents uncovered a vast array of explosives and bomb-making materials in a detached garage, along with a backpack containing additional bombs found unsecured in his bedroom, where he lives with his wife and two young children.

    The sheer scale of the find has left authorities deeply concerned about public safety, though Spafford’s defense team insists there is no clear evidence linking him to any violent actions. His attorneys have pointed to his previously clean criminal record and questioned the functionality of the bombs, suggesting they were not intended for immediate use.

    The investigation into Spafford was sparked by an informant in 2023, who revealed that Spafford had been stockpiling weapons and ammunition. The informant also shared disturbing details about Spafford’s political beliefs, including his use of photos of President Joe Biden for target practice and his support for political assassinations.

    When the FBI searched Spafford’s property, they found explosives marked as “lethal” and even ones stored in a wearable vest. Many of the bombs were detonated safely at the scene, but others were preserved for further analysis. As Spafford faces serious charges, authorities continue to assess the full extent of the threat he may have posed.
