Remembering Terrance Yeakey: The Policeman Who Mysteriously Died After The Oklahoma City Bombing

Terrance Yeakey, a sergeant at the Oklahoma City Police Department, was the first to arrive at the scene of the Oklahoma City Bombing. His heroic actions that day saved the lives of multiple people, who he pulled from the rubble after the explosion. His death remains a controversial mystery, for good reason.

Terrance Yeakey was born on November 9, 1965. He served in the US military and joined the Oklahoma City Police Department in 1989. Yeakey was the first to arrive when an explosion struck the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995.

His family and friends say that he saw something disturbing at the site that day, prompting Yeakey to reject the government narrative of the attack and conduct a private investigation. Yeakey did not discuss what he saw that day, and even kept specific details of his investigation from his close relatives and friends.

“It’s not true. It’s not what they are saying. It didn’t happen that way,” said Yeakey.

He then began to receive strange and threatening phone calls at his home by unknown persons. Yeakey told people close to him that he believed he was being intimidated and monitored by federal agents.

Tanya Yeakey, the wife of Terrance Yeakey, said “We had people putting nails in our tires, breaking our back windows, just strange bizzare little things” and “after his death, it continued” in an interview conducted by Craig Roberts and Ken Rank.

After Yeakey found “evidence of a cover-up of the bombing by federal agents,” he was found dead just three days before he was set to receive a Medal of Valor from the Oklahoma City Police Department on May 11, 1996 for his actions during the Oklahoma City Bombing.

The official report is that Yeakey committed suicide, however, the circumstance of his death raises serious questions and concerns.

Nashville bomber’s bizarre writings reveal belief in aliens and lizard people

The letter urged the friend to watch some internet videos he included on two Samsung thumb drives.

On another page Warner wrote about 9-11 conspiracy theories, ending with the statement “The moon landing and 9-11 have so many anomalies they are hard to count.”

Warner later wrote that “September 2011 was supposed to be the end game for the planet,” because that is when he believed that aliens and UFO’s began launching attacks on earth.

He wrote that the media was covering up those attacks.

But Warner’s writings grow even more bizarre when he wrote about reptilians and lizard people that he believed control the earth and had tweaked human DNA.

“They put a switch into the human brain so they could walk among us and appear human,” Warner wrote.

While Warner’s writings cover a variety of bizarre theories, he never mentions AT&T or anything else that appears to suggest a motive in the Nashville bombing.

Nashville Bomber’s Girlfriend Warned Cops In 2019 He Was ‘Building Bombs In RV’

More than a year before Nashville bomber Anthony Warner killed himself in a massive Christmas morning explosion, police visited his house after his girlfriend warned them that he was building bombs in his RV, according to the Wall Street Journal.

In an Aug. 21, 2019 incident report, Nashville Police asked the FBI to look into the bomber, Anthony Warner, after they responded to a call from Warner’s girlfriend who was making suicidal threats. Police determined that she was in need of psychological evaluation, but warned that her Warner was “building bombs in the RV trailer at his residence.”

Police were also told by Raymond Throckmorton III, an attorney who said he represented Mr. Warner and his girlfriend, that Mr. Warner “frequently talks about the military and making bombs,” according to the report.

Mr. Throckmorton didn’t return a call to his office for comment.

When police went to Mr. Warner’s home in Nashville’s Antioch neighborhood that August, officers saw an RV parked in the fenced backyard but couldn’t see inside the vehicle, according to the report. They got no answer when knocking at Mr. Warner’s door. Police said in an email Tuesday they saw no evidence of a crime at the time and had no authority to enter Mr. Warner’s home or fenced property. –Wall Street Journal

According to the police report, Nashville PD notified their department’s Hazardous Devices Unit, and asked the FBI to search for Warner in their databases. The next day, the agency reported that they had “found no records at all” – while an FBI request to the Defense Department “was also negative.”

Feds investigate evidence Nashville bomber hunted ‘lizard people,’ other alien beings

Federal investigators are looking into evidence the Antioch man who detonated a bomb in downtown Nashville Christmas morning had spent time hunting for alien life forms in a nearby state park and was interested in “lizard people,” according to law enforcement sources.

The sources told ABC News that Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, may have been motivated, at least in part, by “paranoia over 5G technology,” but that they also found writings that contained ramblings about assorted conspiracy theories, including the idea of shape-shifting reptilian creatures that appear in human form and attempt world domination.

Federal agencies are working to figure out if the beliefs somehow contributed to Warner detonating a bomb inside of an RV parked near Second Avenue North and Commerce Street around 6:30 a.m. Friday, killing himself, injuring three others and damaging more than 40 buildings.

Prior to the explosion, Metro police said Warner’s RV played an audio recording of a countdown, a warning for people to evacuate and Petula Clark’s song “Downtown.”

Nashville bomber Anthony Quinn Warner reportedly thought he’d be ‘hailed a hero’

Nashville RV bomber Anthony Quinn Warner was “heavily into conspiracy theories” about 5G networks — and thought he’d be “hailed a hero” for targeting a huge AT&T network, according to a report.

The 63-year-old loner — who died in his massive Christmas Day suicide blast — may have turned against the telecommunications industry after the 2011 death of his father, who worked for a company that later merged with AT&T, a source close to the investigation told the Daily Mail.

He was believed to be “heavily into conspiracy theories,” especially over fears that 5G networks were killing people, the source said.

“The unofficial motive thus far is the suspect believed 5G was the root of all deaths in the region and he’d be hailed a hero,” the source told the outlet.

NASHVILLE BOMBING: RV Was Playing Song “Downtown” Before Blast

Before a warning message and countdown was broadcast from the RV that exploded in downtown Nashville on Christmas day, the 1964 hit song “Downtown” by Petula Clark was playing.

“The music started, and I notified over the [police radio] air to notify other officers,” Officer James Luellen said, speaking alongside four of his fellow cops in a Sunday press briefing. “Then, after the song, it continued to go back to the announcement for a little while.”

“What I remembered was, ‘Downtown, where the lights shine bright,’ ” he said.

Court overturns Boston Marathon bomber’s death sentence

A federal appeals court Friday threw out Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s death sentence in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, saying the judge who oversaw the case did not adequately screen jurors for potential biases.

A three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ordered a new penalty-phase trial on whether the 27-year-old Tsarnaev should be executed for the attack that killed three people and wounded more than 260 others.
