BRYAN COUNTY, Ga. – A Savannah man has been sentenced to 20 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to planting and detonating an explosive device that severely damaged a woman’s home.
Stephen Glosser, 38, was sentenced to 240 months behind bars after admitting to stalking and using an explosive to commit another felony offense, according to Acting U.S. Attorney Tara M. Lyons for the Southern District of Georgia. In addition to his prison term, U.S. District Court Chief Judge R. Stan Baker ordered Glosser to pay $507,781 in restitution to two victims and serve three years of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.
A Calculated Plan to Terrorize
The case unfolded on January 13, 2023, when Bryan County emergency services responded to a devastating explosion at a Richmond Hill residence. Two people were inside at the time but miraculously survived. The investigation led to Glosser’s arrest and a March 2024 federal indictment.
Court documents reveal that Glosser conspired with a co-conspirator to intimidate, injure, or kill the victim. Their elaborate plans included:
- Shooting arrows into the victim’s front door
- Releasing a large python into the victim’s home to attack her daughter
- Mailing dog feces and dead rats to her address
- Scalping her
- Ultimately, blowing up her home
Using an internet search, Glosser tracked down the victim’s residence from an image she had once shared with him. His co-conspirator purchased explosive materials online, which the duo then used to construct and detonate the bomb. After the attack, Glosser hired a cleaning service to remove bomb-making traces from his own home.
A Joint Law Enforcement Effort
Glosser’s co-conspirator, arrested in Louisiana on unrelated charges, is awaiting prosecution in the Southern District of Georgia. He remains innocent unless proven guilty.
Officials praised the swift and thorough investigation.
“The level of malevolent violence in this case is astounding. It’s truly fortunate no one was killed,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Lyons. “This prosecution highlights the dedication of the ATF and our law enforcement partners.”
“This case serves as a stark reminder that those who terrorize others will face the full force of the law,” said Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director Chris Hosey.
The case was investigated by multiple agencies, including the ATF, GBI, Bryan County Sheriff’s Office, Chatham County Sheriff’s Office, and Savannah Fire Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney L. Alexander Hamner prosecuted the case.
