A DNA test identified the bomber as Anthony Quinn Warner, according to the Associated Press. No one else was involved in the incident, the outlet reported.
Warner had worked as a computer consultant for Nashville realtor Steve Fridrich, who told the AP in a text message that Warner had said he was retiring earlier this month.
Furthermore, officials have not provided insight into why Warner selected the particular location for the bombing, which damaged an AT&T building and continued to wreak havoc on cellphone service and police and hospital communications in several Southern states as the company worked to restore service.
Forensic analysts were reviewing evidence collected from the blast site to try to identify the components of the explosives as well as information from the U.S. Bomb Data Center for intelligence and investigative leads, according to a law enforcement official who said investigators were examining Warner’s digital footprint and financial history, as well as a recent deed transfer of a suburban Nashville home they searched.
Officials said Warner had not been on their radar before Christmas. A law enforcement report released Monday showed that Warner’s only arrest was for a 1978 marijuana-related charge.
This is not entirely correct as reports emerged that investigators received a call from a person who reported Warner to police in August 2019 claiming he was making bombs in the RV which was then parked at his home, The US Sun has learned.
That call identified him as the possible owner of the RV that exploded after seeing a photo of the vehicle released by police.
Warner had recently given away a vehicle and told the person he gave it to that he had been diagnosed with cancer, though it is unclear whether he indeed had cancer, the official said. Investigators used some items collected from the vehicle, including a hat and gloves, to match Warner’s DNA, and DNA had also been taken from one of his family members, the official said.
The official could not discuss the matter publicly and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.
Warner also apparently gave away his home in Antioch, a Nashville suburb, to a Los Angeles woman a month before the bombing. A property record dated Nov. 25 indicates Warner transferred the home to the woman in exchange for no money after living there for decades. The woman’s signature is not on that document.
My neighbor has his awesome 5th wheel mega RV parked next door preparing to head to FL. I’m heading over to check if he’s making any bombs.
Why does a realtor need an IT guy? Or was he just the repairman the realtor called if someone spilled coffee on their keyboard?
Why did they use DNA from "items" when they supposedly found human meat? A hat and gloves don't prove he's dead. The human remains could be some homeless guy. This whole story is janky.
I think that story (like most) is mangled by incompetent journalism. The hat and gloves were found at his house, not in the RV. They matched DNA (probably from hair) to the body parts found at the scene, and reportedly also swabbed his mother and matched that to DNA from the body parts.
Fridrich and Clark is a pretty big Nashville realty firm. I can believe they would have someone on staff fulltime for IT support type tasks.
Go take your meds you kook
Hardware issues at the office and back up office internal network.
I have several clients that ask me to help them, but I am no bomber either. Good money and an easy job that you can do from home.

Her signature does NOT have to be on that document.
IF he wrote a will, and had left it to her in that manner—her signature would NOT be on the document, either.
A person can give a gift up to about $12,000 without tax consequences to either party. Above a value of about $12,000, the taxes on the gift are the responsibility of the GIFTOR-—NOT the recipient.
IF he had written a will, up to $5.5 million in estate assets can be transferred with no Federal taxes.
“Why does a realtor need an IT guy?”
Umm, because real estate offices use computer equipment like every other kind of office?
That makes more sense. I’d read that they were going to collect from the mother. With a match of DNA of the body parts, it proves he is dead but not that he died in the explosion. I don’t trust anything in the media anymore. Thanks
1. whomever he was reported to about making bombs could have put it into ‘file and forget’ basket.
2. if reported to a local police agency, they may have not informed the FBI; until we know that, I don’t see how we can accuse the FBI of malfeasance.
“Proving that he died in the explosion” would be close to impossible. If he didn’t die in the explosion, it is at least possible that evidence could be found to prove it, but still unlikely. There’s not much left of him.
I gave them benefit of the doubt for a long time too. I was absolutely wrong and naive. They “create or ignore environments” based on Hegelian dialect. And have for years...
