The 37-year-old Green Beret who blew up a rented Tesla Cybertruck in front of the Trump Towers in Las Vegas left an apparent PTSD-fueled manifesto claiming the mysterious drone sightings of the past few months have originated from the Chinese.
In notes and emails discovered by the FBI, Matthew Livelsberger—who took his own life by gunshot before the Cybertruck exploded—explained his actions as a "wake-up call" for the United States, as well as stating his distress over fallen comrades and the lives he took in combat.
His writings also made unsubstantiated claims regarding the drone sightings that have bedeviled U.S. infrastructure—especially in an email he allegedly sent to Military.com.
"What we have been seeing with 'drones' is the operational use of gravitic propulsion systems powered aircraft by most recently China in the east coast, but throughout history, the U.S," said Livelsberger. "The so what is because of the speed and stealth of these unmanned AC. They are the most dangerous threat to national security that has ever existed. They basically have an unlimited payload capacity and can park it over the White House if they wanted. It's checkmate."
As investigations continue to try to accurately explain the mystery drone appearances, the episodes obviously weighed heavily on Livelsberger's mind, prompting the unproven statements in his manifesto.
