The bombing took place early Christmas morning. Investigators said Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, blew himself up in the blast.



Despite hundreds of tips and leads, as well as a history of investigating Warner, his motive for the explosion is not fully known.

Warner did subscribe to many conspiracy theories, and his ex-girlfriend said he had threatened suicide in the past.
