The suspect believed to be responsible for detonating a car bomb outside of a California fertility clinic has been identified.
Guy Edward Bartkus, 25, is accused of setting off the blast just before 11am Saturday at the American Reproductive Centers in Palm Springs inside a silver Ford Fusion sedan, the FBI said.
At least one person died from the horrific incident, which authorities are calling an ‘intentional act of terrorism.’ They have not been identified.
Four others were injured from the blast but none of them are employees of the clinic, according to city officials.
Bartkus, of Twentynine Palms, said in recordings and writings that he was against bringing people into the world without their consent, law enforcement sources close to the investigation told KCAL News.
In his writings, Bartkus allegedly said he was ‘pro-mortalist’, something he described as someone who intends to bring on their own death as soon as possible ‘to prevent your future suffering, and, more importantly, the suffering your existence will cause to all the other sentient beings.’
He also recorded a 30-minute-long audio clip explaining why he ‘decided to bomb an IVF building, or clinic.’
‘I figured I would just make a recording explaining why I’ve decided to bomb an IVF building, or clinic. Basically, it just comes down to I’m angry that I exist and that, you know, nobody got my consent to bring me here,’ he said.

Bartkus also said he was ‘angry’ that IVF clinics exist, adding: ‘These are people who are having kids after they’ve sat there and thought about it. How much more stupid can it get?’

On Saturday, FBI officials raided his home and evacuated the neighborhood over fears it was a ‘blast zone’
