New Arrest in Palm Springs IVF Clinic Bombing [1]

A couple of weeks ago I reported on the bizarre story of the nihilistic anti-natalist bomber who blew himself up, along with said clinic, in an act of “domestic terrorism.” Now from Reuters we have word that another arrest in this case has just been made — namely a fellow member of that cult who sold the ammonium nitrate used by the bomber to construct his car-bomb:
Federal authorities arrested a suspect overnight in connection with last month's deadly bombing at a fertility clinic in Palm Springs, California, according to law enforcement officials on Wednesday.
The suspect, Daniel Park, a 32-year-old man from Washington state, was taken into custody at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, the officials said.
..
Park had been detained in Poland and deported by Polish authorities. U.S. officials were not clear why he had traveled to Poland and said he was not in southern California on the day of the bombing.
Officials alleged that Park secured 270 pounds of ammonium nitrate for Guy Bartkus, the primary suspect in the bombing. Ammonium nitrate, a fertilizer, is also a material commonly used to construct homemade bombs, they said.
The officials charged Park with providing and attempting to provide material support to a terrorist. Bartkus, 25, died in the blast.
..
Bartkus had "nihilistic ideations," FBI officials said at the time, adding that they were investigating the attack as an act of terrorism. On Wednesday law enforcement officials said that Park shared those views and had posted them on Internet forums.
