ON CHRISTMAS morning 2020, Anthony Quinn Warner detonated explosives packed in his motorhome in Nashville, TN, and blew himself and the surrounding environs to smith-ereens. Thankfully, police were alerted to the pending explosion by a bizarre warning emanating from the RV and managed to evacuate people in the community and no one else was killed. It was quickly determined that it was not an act of terror, and not long after reports emerged that took the case down a strange alley, well captured in a December 31, 2020, Yahoo News headline that read “Nashville bomber linked to lizard people myth investigators say.” That rang a skeptical bell in my head.
