The Family That Bombs Together…..

Well, this is an odd one. A Montana woman has been jailed for helping her son manufacture pipe bombs - for reasons unknown at this time.

GREAT FALLS, Mont. - A 43-year-old woman has been charged with a felony after prosecutors said she helped her son make pipe bombs in her home.

Rae Lynn Funston was charged Tuesday in District Court with felony possession of explosives. She is jailed on $25,000 bail. Police said she told them she purchased the PVC pipe and helped her son make the explosives.

The bombs were found during a routine probation inspection of the home - so the boy has a history of some kind. But authorities have no idea what he had planned or even how powerful the bombs are at this point.
