Marine, Trump Supporter Identified as Mormon Church Gunman
The shooter in the Grand Blanc Township church attack, identified as 40-year-old Thomas Jacob Sanford, was an Iraq war veteran and former Marine. Sanford, who fatally shot at least four people before being killed by police, also set the church ablaze. Authorities have confirmed the attack as targeted violence but have yet to determine the motive behind the shooting. Evidence suggests Sanford had supported Donald Trump, as he was seen wearing Trump campaign apparel in 2019 and a Trump-Pence sign was displayed at his home.
