Steven F. Christensen, a Mormon bishop, picked up a box in front
of his office in the
Judge Building
located in downtown Salt Lake
City. It turned out to be a motion
activated "booby-trapped shrapnel
bomb" and he was killed immediately.

Later that morning another package exploded killing Kathleen Sheets,
across town in exclusive Olympus Cove. The package was addressed to
her husband, J. Gary Sheets who was also a bishop in the Mormon Church,
and who had been in a business partnership with Steven Christensen.

The very next day, yet another blast. This time, in a car, by the
old Deseret Gym, and the
victim is Mark Hofmann. He loses some fingers
and gets injured very badly, but survives.
