Georgia Prosecutor Calls Explosion at ‘America’s Stonehenge’ an Act of Domestic Terrorism
A Georgia prosecutor described the apparent targeting of a mysterious monument with an explosive device as an "act of domestic terrorism," saying Thursday that the alleged crime was aimed at the county agencies that own the site.
“The destruction of a public building by explosive is inherently intended to influence the actions of the governing authority that owns the structure,” Parks White, the Northern Judicial Circuit district attorney, said in an email about the explosion of the Georgia Guidestones on Wednesday.
No suspect has been identified. White said in a statement Wednesday that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has “many” leads in its probe of the explosion and that “a case is being made against the perpetrator.”
White said in his statement Wednesday that "regardless of your feelings about the origin of the Guide Stones, their meaning, or the intention of the person who commissioned and erected them, they are a historical landmark, and this destructive act was an assault upon our community."
