FBI: Man who built bomb, left it at Roswell park wanted to be ‘patriot’

A 67-year-old Roswell man claimed he was only trying to be a “patriot” when he planted a bomb at a local park, according to a federal complaint against him.

Michael C. Sibley, 67, was arrested Saturday for allegedly leaving an explosive device at Vickory Creek Park in November, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said.

“The defendant allegedly placed a bag containing what appeared to be pipe bombs in Vickery Creek Park,” Horn said in an emailed statement. “This arrest should reassure the community that serious crimes like this will be investigated thoroughly and all leads followed to identify the perpetrator.”

A mother and daughter walking in the park spotted the backpack Nov. 4 and called police, an FBI spokesman previously said. The Cobb County police bomb squad was called to the scene.

Inside the backpack, investigators found materials to make a bomb. The items detonated, according to police.

Sounds to me like this guy might have dementia. Or he’s 2 tacos short of a combo plate.

Another case of Sudden Jihad!

According to the criminal complaint, Sibley confessed and:

“Stated he is a ‘patriot’ and he felt no one was paying attention to what was going on the world. Sibley felt if he placed the package in a Roswell park then people would finally get that this type of activity could happen anywhere.”
Agents say they also found a copy of the Quran in the backpack and other items pointing to what Sibley called “soft targets,” like the location of Atlanta’s Jewish community center.

What moron writes this stuff?

Did the materials make themselves? Did the police cause the detonation or did they detonate the 'materials to make a bomb' with an explosive provided by EOD?

Well now...we need to treat this like the fake rape at UVA. Let’s not attack the liar and instead let’s focus on the real issue...the muslims that caused their environment to exist :-)

See let’s use liberal logic they way they do.

Most likely a registered democrat. Need to learn his background really fast, before media declared him a ‘right-wing’ ‘tea partier’.

Yep. I’ll bet it never occurred to this brain-trust that he’ll be the guy the government points to to prove bombings aren’t limited to the followers of Islam. And if this guy is a Christian Church-goer, we can see where that will lead to government.

Idiot doesn’t begin to cover it.

I’ll bet his pipe bomb wasn’t even functional. I may be wrong there, but I think they have hoped for things like this, and they’ll run with it as much as they can.

It says they exploded it. It makes me wonder if they placed explosives in the back pack to destroy or set of a bomg if there was one. Not sure their procedure here.

This is another example of left wing bs posing as news, and that is why the print mediots are going out of business.

Dang. That’s just 3.75 miles from me.

[shouting at perp] Yes, ya moron, we’re quite aware of the problem without you putting us at actual risk. Now you’ve done gone and done what those you’re imputing evil upon have not done, making yourself worse than them and smearing the rest of us with your vileness in the process.

Sounds like he was trying to make it look like Islamists did it, adding a couple levels of redirection/imputation which might have needlessly confused some AJC readers. Not happy it was left out, but don’t see leaving it out as a necessarily bad thing.
