As previously reported, an explosive device was detonated outside of the Alabama Attorney General’s office earlier this year in February.
According to reports, the explosive device was detonated early in the morning on February 24.
The bomber, Kyle Calvert, was arrested on April 10, 2024.
No one was injured in the explosion.
“In the early hours of Saturday, February 24, an explosive device was detonated outside of the Alabama Attorney General’s Office building in Montgomery. Thankfully, no staff or personnel were injured by the explosion. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency will be leading the investigation, and we are urging anyone with information to contact them immediately,” Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall (R) said in a statement.
According to the plea agreement, Kyle Calvert admitted to manufacturing the explosive device and using nails and screws as shrapnel.
Calvert also supported Antifa and placed stickers that read “Support your local Antifa” on downtown buildings. Law enforcement said Calvert claimed he has no affiliation with Antifa.
The FBI/DOJ on Thursday announced Kyle Calvert was sentenced to nine years in federal prison.
“Kyle Benjamin Douglas Calvert, 27, of Irondale, Alabama, was sentenced today to nine years in prison for the malicious use of an explosive device outside of the Alabama Attorney General’s Office in Montgomery,” the Justice Department said in a press release on Thursday.
“Kyle Calvert attacked the Alabama Attorney General’s Office with a shrapnel-filled explosive and then fled the scene, but this sentence ensures he will not escape accountability for his crime,” said US Attorney General Merrick Garland. “Acts of violence like this one against our public institutions endanger public servants and entire communities, and they must not be tolerated. I am grateful to the FBI, ATF, and our state and local law enforcement partners for ensuring accountability for this attack, and for the work they do every day to protect our communities.”
“Today’s sentencing is the final step holding Kyle Calvert accountable for detonating a shrapnel-filled explosive device outside a public office in downtown Montgomery,” said FBI Director Christopher Wray. “This case demonstrates the FBI’s continued commitment to working with our partners to bring to justice anyone who attempts violence to injure or intimidate members of our community.”

According to an FBI whistleblower, the DOJ resisted bringing charges against Kyle Calvert because he claimed to be transgender.
“The bomber is a radical leftist. And multiple moles tell me that DOJ resisted bringing charges because he claims to be transgender,” FBI whistleblower Steve Friend said.
