A Marine Corps veteran who served in Iraq, Sanford, 40, then set fire to the structure, according to authorities. Retiree Lori Farmer, who lives nearby with husband Ron, told The Independent that she was “shocked” when she heard Sanford identified as the shooter. Ron, who declined to be interviewed, “really liked [Sanford] and counted him as one of his good buddies,” Farmer said. “At this point, I don’t know nothing,” Jeffrey Sanford, 57, told The Independent. “He was in logistics,” Thomas Sanford said.
