NEW: The U.S. Attorney says that Anthony Quinn Warner is the Nashville bomber, he died at the bomb site.
DNA evidence was processed by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation overnight and it was confirmed that DNA evidence at the bomb site (human tissue) matched that of Anthony Quinn Warner.

The results were matched by the FBI laboratory in Quantico, VA.
In addition, a VIN was recovered from the RV that linked it to Warner, the FBI says.
The FBI indicates that there was DNA gathered from one of Warner's relatives which helped them with the DNA comparison.

Also, TBI says there was NO prior contact with Warner and law enforcement.
The FBI says that they are still working to determine the motive.

A Google street view image of Warner's address shows an RV in the backyard which closely matches the image of the RV police say was involved in the blast.

According to our NBC affiliate @WSMV that vehicle is no longer in that backyard.

NEW: Federal prosecutors acknowledge that dates written on former FBI officials Pete Strozk and Andy McCabe's notes were not written by them.

Instead, they say the dates were estimated dates created by a review team and attached by post-it notes and inadvertently scanned in.
As you may recall, in the past few weeks Strozk and MCabe have raised concerns that dates appeared on their handwritten notes filed in the Flynn case that they say they never wrote.

Today, prosecutors acknowledged they were right, they didn't write in those dates.
The prosecutors say it was FBI agents assigned to the Eastern District of Missouri who attached the dates via post-it note as "estimated dates" and then the documents were scanned at FBI headquarters without taking the post-it notes off first.

NEW: An FBI agent who investigated Flynn recently told the FBI and prosecutors reviewing the Flynn case that he felt Flynn lied to the FBI in his interview to save his job but thought the prosecution of Flynn by Mueller was an effort to “get Trump”, according to a court document.
The agent, identified as William Barnett, apparently told those reviewing the Flynn investigation that the investigation into Manafort, Page, and Papadopoulos were proper because there were investigative angles to follow.
The 13 page interview summary was filed just before midnight tonight by prosecutors seeking to dismiss the case against Flynn.

A dismissal that is being reviewed by the judge who accepted Flynn's initial guilty plea.
