Honk News (Chatham County, GA) – A man from Georgia has received a 20-year prison sentence after admitting guilt to charges related to placing a bomb at a woman’s residence and reportedly devising a scheme described by authorities as an attempt to kill, intimidate, harass, or harm the homeowner.
The purported scheme, as stated by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Georgia and noted in earlier reports, included shooting “arrows into the victim’s front door,” unleashing a sizable python “to consume the victim’s daughter,” sending rats and dog waste to the residence, and ultimately destroying the property with an explosion.
Stephen Glosser, a 38-year-old from Chatham County, has received a 20-year prison sentence and is ordered to pay $507,781 in restitution to his victims after entering a guilty plea for stalking and using an explosive in connection with another felony offense, as reported by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Georgia on Thursday, Feb. 20.
According to the announcement, he was also mandated to undergo three years of supervised release following the conclusion of his prison sentence.

Glosser, facing a life sentence without the possibility of parole in the federal system, was arrested in January 2023 in connection with the home explosion in Richmond Hill, Ga., alongside alleged co-conspirator Caleb Kinsey.
A co-conspirator has been apprehended in Louisiana on charges not related to the case and is currently awaiting trial in the Southern District of Georgia.
Following earlier reports, authorities arrived at a residential site around 5 a.m. local time on January 13, 2023, to investigate an explosion. They identified the cause as an improvised explosive device, leading to the arrest of two individuals in February 2023, who were subsequently indicted on multiple charges.
Glosser faced allegations of locating the woman’s address on the internet and allegedly planning a route to her residence prior to constructing the explosive device. A report indicated that an unidentified woman and her child, who allegedly relocated to the residence just a day prior, managed to flee the house without injury. According to Bryan County Sheriff Mark Crowe, it has been reported that she had a previous relationship with one of the suspects.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Glosser’s accomplice “purchased exploding targets online,” and together they utilized the materials “to create a bomb” that was deployed against the residence. Glosser reportedly “hired a cleaning service to clean the carpets in his residence to hide traces of the bomb-making materials.”
Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director Chris Hosey called the sentencing a “stark reminder that those who use terror and threats to intimidate others will face the full force of the law.”
