Excerpts:

Who was Tony Warner?

Warner grew up in Antioch and attended Antioch High School, graduating in the mid-1970s before settling down in the same community and working various IT jobs. But in just the past month, Warner appeared to put his affairs in order.
+++
Yearbooks from Antioch High School show Warner, a short teenager with glasses, played on the school’s golf team.
+++
Steve Schmoldt and his wife have lived next door to Warner for 25 years. He described Warner as “low-key” and friendly, though “some people would say he’s a little odd.” “You never saw anyone come and go,” Schmoldt said of Warner’s home. “Never saw him go anywhere. As far as we knew, he was kind of a computer geek that worked at home.”
+++
The neighbors never talked about politics or religion. Warner never gave any indication of any closely held ideology. “I can tell you as far as politics, he never had any yard signs or flags in his window or anything like that. If he did have any political beliefs he kept, that was something he kept to himself.

The article also said Warner does not have a public presence on social media or other websites.
