Man arrested in connection to fertility center bombing mysteriously dies in custody
A tragic incident unfolded at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Los Angeles on June 24, 2025, when Daniel Park, a man indicted for his involvement in a deadly car bombing outside a California fertility clinic, was found unresponsive and later pronounced dead. Park, 32, was discovered in this state at around 7:30 a.m. by facility staff, prompting immediate life-saving measures and a call for emergency medical services. Despite efforts to revive him, Park was declared dead after being transported to a nearby hospital.
Park had been held at the detention center since June 13 under pretrial detention, following his indictment for Malicious Destruction of Property related to the May 17 bombing outside the American Reproductive Centers facility in Palm Springs. The bombing, orchestrated by 25-year-old Guy Edward Bartkus, resulted in Bartkus’ death and injuries to four others. Prosecutors allege that Park provided Bartkus with chemicals and explosive materials, as well as assisted in conducting experiments in Bartkus’ garage in 29 Palms. Court documents revealed that Park even used an AI chatbot to research explosive devices in the days leading up to the attack.
After the bombing, Park fled to Poland but was arrested upon arrival at New York’s JFK Airport and subsequently deported back to the United States to face charges. The FBI has classified the bombing as an act of domestic terrorism, citing the suspects’ adherence to a radical ideology known as “pro-mortalism,” which condemns human reproduction as morally wrong. Investigators suspect that the clinic may have been targeted to destroy stored human embryos.
The tragic death of Daniel Park has raised questions and concerns, with officials stating that the cause of death is under review. Attorney General Pam Bondi condemned the bombing as a heinous crime that strikes at the core of humanity. The incident serves as a grim reminder of the devastating consequences of extremism and violence.
As authorities continue to investigate this case, the public remains vigilant against acts of terrorism and extremism. The impact of such senseless violence reverberates through communities, underscoring the importance of unity and resilience in the face of adversity.
