GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A Grand Rapids man who was flagged by the FBI after allegedly building bombs has pleaded guilty to making a false statement.
Federal court records show 24-year-old Aaron Fein changed his plea from not guilty to guilty Friday. In return, the federal court agreed to dismiss a second count of lying at Fein’s sentencing.
Fein, 24, first showed up on the radar of federal authorities when he was stopped at the U.S-Canada border with a notebook containing a handwritten checklist of ingredients to build a bomb that could be remotely detonated, a federal criminal complaint shows.
Investigators say Fein told them the notebook contained “things on the internet that interested him.”
The complaint says Fein alerted federal authorities to “partially-constructed electronic triggering devices” in his bedroom he said he built.
