The FBI reportedly said that Anthony Warner, the Nashville bomber, was not on law enforcement’s radar before the Christmas day bomb explosion. However it turns out that police in Nashville were notified that Warner was making bombs back in 2019 by his girlfriend and attorney:
BREAKING: we just received this report from @MNPDNashville showing Anthony Warner’s girlfriend reported he was making bombs in an RV one year ago. The FBI said earlier this week Warner was not on law enforcement’s radar prior to this incident. #nashvillebombing @WSMV pic.twitter.com/fYga92BIzP

If you can’t make that out, here’s what it says:
On Aug 21 police responded to a call for service at 3816 Syfert Ln and spoke with OP 1. During the incident, OP 1 made statements that her boyfriend (suspect) was building bombs in the RV trailer at his residence. While on the scene of 3816 Syfert Ln police also spoke with OP 2. OP 2 stated that he is an attorney who represents OP 1 and the suspect and that the suspect frequently talks about the military and bomb making. He stated that he believes that the suspect knows what he is doing and is capable of making a bomb.
It then details how police knocked on the door, but after several attempts never could get Warner to come to the door. Nor could they see what he was doing in his RV because it was in the back of the house behind a fence.
That was August of 2019. After such a claim you’d think that law enforcement or the FBI would have followed up to investigate more, to find out if this was really true. But they didn’t and we all know what happened.
