When the Timer Stopped: The Quiet Bomber of Prince Edward Island

A meticulously built pipe bomb with a stopped countdown timer was left in downtown Charlottetown, a device so precise investigators later called its construction extraordinary - and the only signature was letters signed "Loki 7." How did a retired chemistry teacher with a taste for Nazi memorabilia and an understanding of trace evidence slip into silence for months while assembling explosives and sending communiqués sealed with water?

In this episode, we lay out the chronology of the attacks, the investigation that followed, and the forensic threads that tied two blasts together, asking how the stopped timer and unusual components became the clues that pointed investigators toward one man.

Person: Roger Bell
Location: Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island
Date: June 1996
Case: Two explosions including a 1995 legislature bombing and a June 1996 pipe bomb
Signature: "Loki 7" communiqués sealed with water

- The bomb in June 1996 was placed in a green bag outside the Speedy Propane Compound in downtown Charlottetown.
- The device contained a countdown timer that had stopped on its own and remained intact until police destroyed it 24 hours after a warning communique.
- Police received two communiqués signed "Loki 7" bearing a stylized swastika and antisemitic content.
- Forensic examiner Jean-Yves Vermette identified a rare four-inch nipple pipe sealed with double end caps in the second device, calling the combination exceptional.
- Roger Bell ordered three explosive-making books in 1994 flagged by Canadian Customs and purchased a four-inch nipple pipe and two double end caps using the alias John MacLeod.
