This piece of garbage (the mail bomber) was picked up in my county, 15 miles from my home

They found his van just west of Ft Lauderdale in the city of Plantation where my friends, coworkers, relatives, and even one of my kids live... to think that they might have crossed paths with this dangerous man at a local grocery store, gas station or post office just sickens me and chills me to the core!

The man who investigators said had more than 40 pipe bombs and materials to make dozens more at his Mesa home has been indicted
.

A grand jury indicted Jeffrey Dennis Metcalf on 42 counts of misconduct involving weapons on Sept. 10.
Court paperwork said he had 42 pipe bombs with shrapnel between Aug. 28 and Aug. 30. Investigators also said he had materials to make an additional 30 bombs.

Less than 2 miles from our home....leaves a very uneasy feeling.....be well all....ever vigilant..
