    The devices were meant to be lit and thrown by the protesters. When I read "camouflage backpack full of homemade bombs" I thought it was a bag of bombs set to go off on its own. Probably why his sentence is light b/c nobody actually used them. I figure if they had been used he'd have been much worse off. Here's a pic of them.

    Ms. Smolar said that Michanowicz has a history of substance abuse that began at a young age and was "at its peak" in the year before his arrest for planting the bombs.

    He used up to five bags of heroin a day, had been an inpatient at a Florida abuse clinic in February 2019 and was receiving vivitrol injections as recently as May 2020. In addition, she said, his ex-wife reported that she found empty stamp bags and alcohol bottles in their house prior to his arrest.

    Michanowicz planted a backpack filled with Molotov cocktails near PNC Plaza on May 31, 2020, during the Downtown protests over the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

    Pittsburgh police were called to the plaza the next day, June 1, for a report of a suspicious backpack near a bike rack under a stand of trees. Officers discovered three devices and called the bomb squad, which determined that they were spent pepper spray grenades with wicks held in place by foam spray insulation.

    Would that “ gas bomb”actually work or would it just spreed & burn? Wouldn’t a glass bottle Molotov cocktail work better? I’m glad he’s a dumb ace.
