Rascal Flatts singer Gary LeVox is clearing up some confusion surrounding his previous comments about the Nashville Christmas attack.
Authorities over the weekend identified the suspect as 63-year-old Anthony Quinn Warner, who died after detonating a bomb in downtown Nashville in the early morning hours of December 25.
Days after the explosion, LeVox, 50, raised his eyebrows when he appeared to spread a conspiracy theory that circulated online, questioning whether the bombing was actually a “missile attack” that was intended to prevent AT&T from auditing polling stations. In his deleted post, LeVox shared screenshots of a video that pushed this theory. Along with the photos, he wrote: “NASHVILLE MISSLE ATTACK. The RV is in the left circle. The circle on the right is the IMPACT SITE! HMMMMM ???? It will be interesting to see what cover up happens with this crap! Let’s see what they What are your thoughts?
LeVox spoke to Rick Daniels, host of “Big Rick in the Morning” on Wednesday to discuss his controversial post, where he insisted he was simply “asking questions” rather than drawing his own conclusions.

“So one of my friends sent me the video. I took a picture of it. It shows where the lunatic’s trailer was,” explained LeVox. “I was like, wait a minute. There’s the RV and there’s the source of the explosion. I don’t know anything about explosions, but it raised a question for me, like, ‘Hmm?'”
LeVox stated that he is “the last theoretical person of political conspiracy on the planet”, but initially contemplated the theory because it was sent to him by a friend he trusts.
The singer then insisted that the intention of his posting was to see what the audience was thinking.
“I just wanted to hear what everyone else thought. I’ll tell you what Big Rick, I’ve never seen so much hate, ”said LeVox.

In terms of LeVox’s claim that there may have been some kind of “cover-up”, the band member hinted that 2020 left him with many doubts, considering the various restrictions and responses related to the coronavirus pandemic.
“Nothing else seems to have its face value in 2020,” said LeVox. “Look how long we’ve been dealing with the pandemic. Do you wear a mask? Don’t you wear a mask? It’s been a whole year of questions, so when this thing happened in Nashville, on Christmas morning when we woke up, I was like, ‘Let’s see how they try to cover it up. ‘ “

“I’m just going to ‘Okay. Add that to the 2020 list. What’s the truth, folks?'”, He concluded.
The FBI released new photos on Tuesday showing the aftermath of an explosion on Christmas Day. The photos show the skeleton of a wrecked vehicle and law enforcement officers scouring the scene for any useful evidence to answer persistent questions in connection with Warner’s actions and his motives behind the attack.
