Former marine Nigel Edge, changed his name in 2023. Sean DeBevoise was his previous name.

He was arrested for yesterday's shooting at the American Fish Company restaurant in Southport, North Carolina. Edge is charged with three counts of first-degree murder and five counts of attempted first-degree murder.

While some media mention conspiracy theories and lawsuits, The New York Post included this information. 

"Law-enforcement sources described Edge as also harboring numerous Q-Anon conspiracy theories. His litigation against Pickler was just the latest in a series of wacky lawsuits he filed in the last year, which included numerous allegations that a cabal of “LGBTQ White Supremacists” and pedophiles were trying to murder him because he’s a “straight man.”He accused Southport’s Generations Church of being in on the plot, along with the Brunswick Medical center of trying to kill him – with both lawsuits being dismissed.

Several X accounts also had pages from lawsuits and posts from Edge's Facebook accounts.
