Domestic Terror – The 1927 Bath Michigan School Bombing

On a spring day on May 18, 1927, a defeated school board member set off a chain of explosions in Bath Township, Michigan. The resulting carnage destroyed his farm and destroyed the Bath Consolidated School. The blasts killed 38 elementary school children and six adults and injured at least 58 others. This domestic terror incident remains the top school massacre in United States history and is ranked 11th deadliest in the world.
