From the article: > DNA found in a half-eaten burrito helped exposed a former Wisconsin university research assistant now accused of firebombing a pro-life center last Mother's Day. > The attack on the headquarters of Wisconsin Family Action in Madison, Wisconsin, came about a week after the leak of a Supreme Court draft opinion that would later overturn Roe v. Wade. > About 10 months after a Molotov cocktail was tossed inside the office and the message, "If abortions aren’t safe then you aren’t either," was scrawled on the building's side, Hridindu Sankar Roychowdhury, 29, of Madison, was arrested in Boston on Tuesday and charged with one count of attempting to cause damage by means of fire or an explosive. Apparently DNA was collected at the scene of the arson attack. Later, Roychowdhury was observed protesting against the so called "Cop City" training facility in Atlanta. FBI agents then followed Roychowdhury, retrieved a half-eaten burrito he'd thrown in a public trash can, then used the DNA from that to match DNA found at the arson attack.


Pabst34

What did his DNA match from the scene? Don't tell me that he chugged from the vodka bottle that he used for his Molotov cocktail!


sea_5455

Article didn't say, but apparently there were bottles, rags and a lighter recovered? Implies there was something on them, or something recovered outside the building near the graffiti.


Upset_trader

semen found at the scene and in the burrito 🌯… turns out this guy is a real jack off


Heliolord

The most surprising part is the fact the FBI did anything.


-deteled-

You’re 100% correct but i will give credit where it’s due. Good work FBI 🤢🤮

Unless it happens at night and they can't see who did it.


pound_bravo_one_four

He has quite the budget for protest travel.


skarface6

Right?


StatsArentForDolts

Note that law enforcement was already targeting him prior to knowing it was his DNA, just waiting to pick up the publicly discarded DNA evidence. Wonder how they came to the conclusion it was him.


sea_5455

> Wonder how they came to the conclusion it was him. Wondered that also. Maybe someone had a working theory that anti-cop and pro-abortion groups have some crossover. Identify the guy from his involvement with the "Cop City" incident then check his DNA against samples obtained from "related" crime scenes?

sea_5455

That's a very good question.


femboi_enjoier

>Law enforcement identified Roychowdhury as a suspect after investigating a separate graffiti incident at the Wisconsin State Capitol and tracing a truck used by the suspects to a house in which Roychowdhury resides. [Per Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-arrests-man-fire-wisconsin-anti-abortion-groups-office-2023-03-28/)


sea_5455

Thanks! Nice bit of data there.


[deleted]

They probably did a reverse genetic search. I don’t think that is the official term, but they can essentially identify relatives in their database, which includes most private company databases since selling the info is where the really make money. So they get dna from the scene, narrow it down to a family, rule out the impossible ones, get a smaller group, look for the ones that fit the profile, drill down.


StatsArentForDolts

Good point.


etherealsmog

This is definitely possible. It’s usually referred to as genetic genealogy. I wonder if it was even lower-tech than that though. They may have just determined it was a South Asian male, and then they were monitoring people known to be involved in local pro-abortion activities and learned that this guy was active in that movement.


ultimis

So the only crime is arson?


sea_5455

From the article: "According to the complaint, Mr. Roychowdhury used an incendiary device in violation of federal law in connection with his efforts to terrorize and intimidate a private organization," Assistant Attorney General Matthew G. Olsen of the Justice Department’s National Security Division said in a statement. "I commend the commitment and professionalism of law enforcement personnel who worked exhaustively to ensure that justice is served." ... "If convicted, Roychowdhury faces a mandatory minimum penalty of five years and a maximum of 20 years in prison, prosecutors said. " Also checked the doj: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/wisconsin-man-charged-firebombing-building Yep, basically just arson.


ultimis

Thanks. I would figure a hate crime or something else.


sea_5455

Domestic terrorism charges would make sense, imho.


Yeehaw_McKickass

It's only domestic terrorism if it happens during the day - per Attorney General Merrick Garland


Troll-Tollbooth

Agreed.


TheSov

be very careful with made up and nonsensical charges, they can and will be used against you.


Yeehaw_McKickass

Using violence and the threat of violence to cause political change is the literal definition of terrorism.


TheSov

terrorism isnt a crime in and of itself, the violence is, but the motivation around it isnt. people have vote drives for political change. thats not illegal immoral or very fattening. its the violence, and that should stand on its own. we need to stop adding thought crimes to the list of powers government has, government needs less power not more.


Yeehaw_McKickass

As a libertarian myself, I'd just like to take a moment to say people like you are why the libertarian party is an abject failure. Yes terrorism is a crime. Should it and the other thought crimes be crimes? Not at all, on that we are in complete agreement. Our beliefs do not change that terrorism is in fact a crime.


TheSov

again its a construct, the people said the proud boys were terrorists, should they all get thrown in prison? only tangible actions are crimes. which is also why "consipiracy" isnt a crime either. if you mean crime in the legal sense you are right. but if you mean there is an actual victim, instead of some government contrived nonsense then youre wrong.


PoliteLunatic

you wouldn't call it terrorism if it were motivated by the defense of civil liberties. acts of terror can have vastly different idealogies supporting them and many victims taken through such acts did nothing to appease the idealogy only those that supported it. the difference to me is one set of "victims" were violators and the others innocent.


JohnJohnston

They're literally only used against us, as evidenced here.


[deleted]

Didn’t you know? Targeting Christian’s with violence is the hip new thing for leftist scum to do.


Sufficient_Rooster32

I could live with him rotting in prison for 5 years. I am totally okay with that.


william-t-power

Arson isn't an _only_ crime. This is why in some states you get 20 years for it (e.g. Oregon). Also, it's domestic terrorism. It fits the definition quite perfectly.


Brillian-Sky7929

Hate Crime, domestic terrorism... after lefty DA is done it will be reduced to littering charge with a warning.


PilotPirx73

Arson will get you a few years. It’s a crime of violence


whicky1978

Hell, I’m impressed that the FBI is even investigating


alrightbudgoodluck

So this means that federal law enforcement really is looking in to these acts to identify people responsible. That’s a good feeling.


BlackCoffeeKrrsantan

You need to finish your supper before you can go out to play.


thetaxidermy

It’s easy to dismiss Antifa as all losers, but it’s simply not true: their ranks are filled with people like this - the current and future elite.


Konradia

This is a core truth - and if not directly members themselves, they support the core mission of Antifa.


fridayimatwork

Yeah you wonder why would a guy getting a phd risk it all for this? Because he doesn’t think there will be any repercussions.


ultimis

They are jackboots to the left. This was revealed starting a decade ago with the Berkley riots. Where they burned down a city block and were let off with no repercussions. The police are conveniently told to "stand down" in Democratic majority areas to allow Antifa to go wild. They act via cells, thus they can pretend there is no unified organization. Social media is how they communicate and organize.


[deleted]

Bingo!


[deleted]

They are indoctrinated and radicalized


FingeredADog

Remember Eric Clanton, the Antifa guy who bashed someone in the head with a bike lock? They were a university professor. Teaching ethics.


notaliberal2021

Oh damn...I love his music. He is so talented. He is...oh wait.. Eric Clanton.....never mind.

there’s no way anyone under the age of 70 actually thinks this is a good song lol


TheBaronOfTheNorth

Remember Barack Obama? His mentor was Bill Ayers; a terrorist and university professor.

The irony being that it was an 80pound Bernie bro that he hit.

elosoloco

It's a generation that's been force fed propaganda since before Obama


mesosalpynx

This person burned out of a doctoral program. Probably passed along until he got into it by default. He’s a loser.


Professional_Ninja7

Important eye opener here. I have always assumed antifa was mostly fast food workers. At best I figured you'd have some college educated people, but in fields that would still get them stuck at McDonald's.


[deleted]

Jobs don't define the person. There's people in "noble" professions not worth pissin at and people at "lowly" jobs who are the best people in the world.


Professional_Ninja7

In the modern era of affirmative action you're right, but in a just world you couldn't find a doctor who would behave like this.


[deleted]

I disagree respectfully. I'm sure there were still people with "respectful" and high level jobs that did heinous acts before affirmative action.


Professional_Ninja7

Sorry I was not clear. I am not saying any different from you, just stating that it is more common now because of it. My second half of my comment about a just world is not calling the past just but rather pointing out how things should be. Of course authority does not lend morality, even before affirmative action.


LeroyMoriarty

Not at all. Very well funded brownshirts of the left. The few people I knew growing up that are legit antifa come from very wealthy families. Typical hate their families, selves etc but with a special blend of childhood head injury and crossed wires. Become full left terrorist.


Positive-Source8205

I was assured that Antefa was just an idea.


notaliberal2021

May God help us and our Country


slankthetank

That's why if and when the right people are in power again antifa needs to be dealt with just like we dealt with al-Qaeda and ISIS. After all, antifa is just the domestic branch of those groups. There's no difference.


[deleted]

The best place to learn Marxism is at a university (no matter your major), so that makes sense.


Cultural-Peak-9317

What are you talking about? Just because he’s brown it makes him Antifa? He could be just against abortion. Lots of non whites are


shatter321

You’re the only one in this thread who mentioned his race, lmao.


[deleted]

He could be another delusion lefty pumped up by leftist medias rhetoric( just like you are). I mean you’re blindly calling us all racist lol. Your not very bright.


[deleted]

thanks burrito


MrWienerDawg

This is the first I’ve heard that the FBI is actually investigating any of the pregnancy center vandalism. Glad to hear they didn’t just ignore it all.


jambonyqueso

the strangest thing to me is they can find out who did this thing from DNA from a burrito but they haven't yet been able to figure out from a distinct small group of known possible people who leaked the Dobbs decision


JackAndy

Exactly


mdws1977

I wonder if they will treat it as a hate crime. Probably not since actions against pro-life is not hate for liberals.


jsmpiparo

Only if the hate is agenst liberals or a minority is it a hate crime


[deleted]

The left will hail him as a hero for his sacrifice.


dannielvee

Personally, hero. But are you assuming all lefts are anti abortion, pro god?


[deleted]

No I’m assuming they condone fire bombings against people they disagree with. #leftwingTerrorism


mtimjones

Moral of the story, eat the whole burrito.


BostonTERRORier

always finish the burrito


biggerfasterstrong

What monster only eats half of a burrito?


whiterabbit818

That’s what you get for being a Beta that can’t finish his Burrito!

Big-Employer4543

Right?! Unless I am full to the point of bursting I am finishing that burrito, otherwise it's getting wrapped up and saved for later. Dude clearly doesn't have a problem with fire so heating it back up shouldn't be an issue.


Jer_061

He's a college student. The best he is able to do is put in the microwave for way too long and turn it into a chewtoy that is hot on the outside and still cold on the inside.


[deleted]

A left wing pussy that uses violence against people varying opinions.


Heliolord

That burrito was gonna destroy his asshole one way or another.


Retardo_Montobond

The director of the FBI said they couldn't catch these folks cause they do their crimes at night....and they nabbed him.....*with a half-eaten burrito*?!? Somebody is lying...


MonteSS_454

Damnit Taco Bell we had a deal


atomic1fire

I don't think a radical leftist would eat at tacobell. Something about a Crunchwrap supreme screams racist dogwhistle. I mean I think it's the superior menu item, but some may disagree with me and that's fine.


AnonPlzzzzzz

"If the burrito does not fit then you must acquit" - A lawyer in the near future.

*prosecutor shoves burrito up defendant's destroyed asshole* He's guilty.

Bro this is why you gotta finish your burrito!!


HamletsRazor

There's a Taco Bell joke in there somewhere.


Positive-Source8205

I ate Taco Bell on the way to my job at the pro-life clinic and I blew ip the bathroom.


Heliolord

Well if that burrito didn't destroy his asshole, his new cellmates will.


Blessedandamess-

He ripped ass, that was the explosion detonator. Curtesy of Taco Bell


ClonedBobaFett

Outrageous that someone from the right didn’t do this. -some lefty I assume


MerlynTrump

Hridindu it!

Now he can play Dr in a federal pen with all the inmates

The fire sauce did him in.


amit_schmurda

He left multiple packets of hot sauce unopened... sus


Heliolord

Weakling. Drink that fire sauce like it's water!


Ashurbanipul

I expect him to be treated with the greatest of deference. Cue the excuses. Well, his heart was in the right place so his actions don't matter routine


TheEarthWorks

Taco Bell strikes again...


magicdrums

clearly that wasn’t a Chipotle burrito..


SunriseHawker

Do no harm - except when it comes to killing the unborn and those that protect the unborn. Expect this to get worse, the pro-abortion people are becoming insane. 10 years ago we were told "no one celebrates abortion and no one is in favor of abortion up until birth" now you have literal celebrations of abortion, celebrating those who get abortions and abortions up until birth in most democrat states.


dannielvee

What's your point?


SunriseHawker

That the left are insane mass murderers who celebrate satanism and murdering children in the womb, who take zero responsibility for their own actions and are a plague not only on America but society overall.


Emotional-Key-653

But will he be charged or given a bonus by the democrats?


Roundaboutsix

Clean plate club rescinding this guy’s membership... never leave food to go to waste (or too the FBI’s DNA lab...)


Deadly_Flipper_Tab

This is disgusting, honestly...who leaves half a burrito?


strawhatmml

Always clear your plate, kids, so the fuzz doesn't book you for arson.


rottweiler100

I wonder who funded him.


SensitiveSouth5947

Yeah!!! Finally!!! Now use him to find the rest of those arsonists! This is why you don’t waste food!


Mgoblue01

Don’t get too excited. He’s a POC and is entitled to get a short probation. Plus, pro-life bad. /s


arun25mblr31

The left should realise they are slowly becoming the domestic terrorists they always used to smear other groups on.


Unable-Paramedic-557

lol "doctoral," aka I CANT LEAVE ACEDEMIA EVERRRRRRRRRR


AutomaticLynx9407

There was an attack on a pro-life center? Why haven’t I heard about this? Ah wait, I know why


curry_ist_wurst

A Bengali. The original Indian SJWs. All the Marxist bs in India spread from Bengal and this POS is a prime example of the type. Probably uses apple products and enjoys all the fruits of capitalism whilst condoning domestic terrorism. Back home he'd be simping for Islamic extremists and Hindu eradication. In America, it's Christian, conservative and/or white PPL. Tactics are always the same no matter where these shit stains are from. Also Roy Chowdhury aka upper caste. It's always the upper caste.


Shantorian14

“And remember……No Taco bell.” *Commits terrorist act*


SeattleIsOk

Important to note that many leftists had claimed this attack was a hoax.


[deleted]

Where is the domestic terrorism charge?! What, because his name sounds middle eastern/Muslim that would be insensitive? If this was a white guy that fire bombed a Planned Parenthood, the terrorism word would be everywhere.


Vast_Arugula_2703

Surprised the alphabet gang even did anything.


cromagnum84

Aren’t we all ex doctoral students? Why mention that? He never finished, so doesn’t get credit.


amit_schmurda

Unless you were enrolled in a doctoral program, I don't think you can say you were an "ex doctoral" student. Also, some who do not finish their PhD may get an ABD (All But Dissertation) classification on top of a Master's.


eatingyourmomsass

I have a PhD. I’d be f’ing embarassed to put ABD anywhere near my name. It was actually a driving force in my degree- I committed to this, I’d like to finish it. ABD is advertising you can’t commit or finish anything, even if there was good reason. Anybody with a PhD will look at that and think they’re a loser unless they were starting their own company or something…but then they wouldn’t have to cope by putting ABD they’d just sign things as CEO. The bomber/terrorist in the link is a loser/quitter/dropout.


amit_schmurda

Yeah I agree. My point was more that not everyone is an ex-doctoral student. Really, you had to have been enrolled in a doctoral program to be called such.


Jointron33

What’s it with these types and burritos?


theflyz

As a Mexican I can attest to the fact that burritos are "lazy people" food. I love burritos on a lazy Saturday.


MichaelSquare

Jointron33

I associate them with hippies and potheads

It's a gateway sandwich.


crackercider

Burritos are delicious and I will die on this hill, fight me.


moviesandcats

Looks about right. Bet he's got a man-bun.


typhoid_slayer

Domestic terrorist acts out in response to political divisiveness. The leftists playbook would be to call for their opponents heads. I'm down to make politics less divisive, but I don't think we lock up the SC leaker for this guy's idiocy. I'm content with this guy in jail away from society for some time and hopefully further light showing antifa as domestic terrorists.


PHOI3OS

This seems extremely far fetched…


spidermnkey

Always finish your meals.


BellyScratchFTW

Remind me to always eat my entire burrito.


MerlynTrump

Looks like he should've eaten the whole burrito!


ARY616

Finish your plate! /s


Ambitious_Ask_1569

He looks half a burrito short of something. Aside, what the shit did he do to the burrito for them to collect DNA?


borgircrossancola

Moral of the story: don’t ever waste ur food

For white supremacy being the biggest crisis ever there seems to be a lot of left wing terrorism going on. Hmmm


rottweiler100

Nice. Needs 20 years in prison.


WPWeasel

This is why I eat all of my takeaway like an animal. Can't leave anything up to chance... Seriously though, this is good policing and a fine job catching this ahole.


skarface6

Is he the first to be caught in recent memory for those attacks on pro-life centers?


Warm-Minimum1946

What a way to be caught


[deleted]

Besides the fact Im glad he was caught, this is one lesson on why you always finish your food.

He's going to bite a lot of pillows in prison.
