Nashville Suicide Bomber s Lizard-People Conspiracy Uncovered As Investigators Seek Motive
02/24/21 AT 4:19 PM
As police investigate the car bomb that rocked Nashville on Christmas, they have discovered that the suicide bomber was steeped in outlandish conspiracy theories. Anthony Warner’s acquaintances tell The New York Times he followed fantastical conspiracies well before a cancer diagnosis sent him spiraling toward disaster.
No, he wasn t diving into the theories of QAnon or pizzagate. Warner supposedly believed humanity had been infiltrated by shape-shifting extraterrestrial lizard people, going out on camping trips to Montgomery Bell Park with infrared equipment to detect them.
He told Crystal Deck, a friend of his, that his obsession had begun with Sept. 11. Warner believed it to be an inside job, not a terrorist attack.
NASHVILLE Crystal Deck was opening presents on Christmas morning at her brother’s home when she heard the news that an enormous explosion had ripped through the historic heart of Nashville. She knew instantly that the bomber was her dearest friend, Anthony Q. Warner, and quickly began fitting together clues that he had dropped, including a series of peculiar episodes she had dismissed as inconsequential, but which proved to be central to his.
