He definitely seems to be a Nut as well as a small time criminal. To me the biggest red flag is that what he did and how he did it was totally designed to get caught within 72 hours or so. And his stunt was timed as an October surprise. There for, I’m suspicious. Of course, if he was used in some way, they would choose a person who seems to be the real deal. But if he had help or encouragement it seems to me that would come out under questioning. On the other hand, once he has legal counsel they can protect him from questioning. My best guess is that hes just a nut but still Questions remain including why did he use dummy bombs that weren’t going to hurt anyone. Maybe hes just that crazy and delusional.
Just because he’ll have a trial and be sentenced to prison for the rest of his life doesn’t mean he’ll not be spending that sentence in witness protection on some sandy beach.
