Georgia men charged with bombing woman’s home, planning python attack on daughter

Two Georgia men have been charged with bombing a woman’s home the day after she moved in and plotting to release a python to “eat” the victim’s daughter, federal officials announced last week.

Stephen Glosser, 37, and Caleb Kinsey, 34, were charged on Thursday. They allegedly built an explosive device using Tannerite purchase online and used it to blow up the victim’s home in the city of Richmond Hill, in Georgia’s Bryan County, on Jan. 13, 2023.

The two men are also accused of planning to shoot arrows into the victim’s front door and mail dog feces or dead rats to her home, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Georgia said. They also allegedly considered scalping the victim as part of a “plan to kill, intimidate, harass, or injure” the woman.

After the arrest, a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives investigator told CBS News affiliate WTOC that Glosser had met the victim through a dating app, but the authorities have not offered more details about a possible motive behind the alleged crimes. Glosser lived with Kinsey.
