There may not be answers to the Christmas Day bombing in Nashville anytime soon. Bombing investigations can take years, Darrell DeBusk, an FBI spokesman based in Tennessee, told The Tennessean.
As of Friday, a motive in the bombing remained under investigation by the FBI, the ATF and Metro Nashville police. So did the type of explosives used to detonate the blast.
Yet internet sleuths are searching for their own answers, some looking at thin ties to conspiracy theories about the 2020 election as evidence of a broader plot.

Nashville police continue to release more details about when the department s top brass was notified about a previous warning about the Christmas Day bomber.
Metro Nashville Police officers did not make contact with Anthony Quinn Warner in August 2019 after a woman believed to be his former girlfriend reported he may have been building a bomb in his RV.
Police say 63-year-old Warner blew up a city block with an RV containing unidentified explosives about 6:30 a.m. Dec. 25 on Second Avenue North outside an AT&T switch facility. The bomb injured at least three people, damaged dozens of downtown buildings and crippled telecommunication systems throughout the southeast over the weekend.
