Georgia College Girl Arrested for Alleged Pipe Bomb 'Hobby'

Her father says she's just a daddy's girl with some unladylike hobbies. The FBI and the ATF disagree.

Celia Alchemy Savage, 23, was arrested by federal and local officials after a Wednesday search of her Cornelia, Georgia home allegedly turned up two pipe bombs, a pistol, suspected marijuana and methamphetamine and alleged drug paraphernalia. She is being held on federal weapons, explosives and drug charges, and has been denied bond.

According to the criminal complaint, when an ATF agent asked Savage what there was to do in Cornelia, Georgia, she said, "Blow things up." The agent said that Savage also stated that she "likes to blow up toilets in the woods."

Savage allegedly told authorities that "manufacturing explosive devices and detonating them for recreation was her hobby," and that she had built five to seven pipe bombs for fun.

"Savage stated she was aware that it was wrong, or against the law, to manufacture the destructive devices," alleged the ATF agent in the criminal complaint, "but claimed she has a passion for it."

The complaint alleges that the drugs, drug paraphernalia, "numerous pills," pistol and bomb components were found in a bedroom of the residence that Savage described as her "lab." According to the ATF agent, Savage admitted that she had used marijuana "the previous day and methamphetamine two (2) months ago."

A video of Savage blowing up a toilet in the woods can still be seen on YouTube. Savage's father, Tommy Savage, confirmed to investigative reporter Mark Winne of ABC Atlanta affiliate WSB-TV that his daughter was the person seen in the video.

Savage's Facebook profile, which is also still on the web, lists "explosives" as an interest, her political orientation as "anarchist" and her status as "Push to test. Release to detonate."

Hey, with the middle name “Alchemy” I would be disappointed if she wasn’t learning how to make explosives and meth in her spare time.

She was targeted because she was blowing up those new fangled government approved low flow toilets.

To much TV, and lawyers convinced all they have a right to a risk free life. I bet those cops were wishing she had a dog to shoot also.

“The ATF has a history of alledging drug infractions to make its cases more appealing.”

Anyone thinks this is a lie, I've got first hand experience with this tactic.

First the ATF used a bird leg ATF agent to try and set me up for drug possession when that didn't work they planted dope in back of my truck.

I guess from looking at the back of my truck they never figured I would clean it out.

They figured wrong.

I found the bag of dope and chunked it into the dumpster.

When they sent their little agent to look for the dope in my truck the dope was gone.

Based on what some are posting on her facebook wall, someone had a personal vendetta against her and called the police. I wouldn’t be surprised if they planted the drugs (if they exist at all).

She “hits” back, so you had better be careful.

****I was deathly afraid someone would come into my house and blow up my toilet,****

Doing a job of getting rid of high water flow toilets! The gov’t should be proud of her as it is illegal to reuse high flow toilets, even though there is now a black market in high flow toilets because they work with ONE flush.

I got some tree stumps on my property she can levitate any day!

I used to vacation in North Georgia all of the time.

Think I need to start up again.

Put me on the jury. Not guilty.

Screw the ATF and their illegal "laws".

A real crime has three elements. A Perpetrator. A Victim. And actual damage done. There is no victim here and no damage done to anyone else or their property.

This is government over-reach at it's worst. This far exceeds their Constitutional mandate and has destroyed too many peoples lives by enforcing arbitrary and capricious edicts.
