NASHVILLE — Without knowing who he was or what he might do, police briefly had Travis Reinking in their sights days before the deadly assault on a Waffle House restaurant. But police didn’t figure out who stole it until Sunday, after the Waffle House attack. In May 2016, Reinking told deputies from Tazewell County, Illinois, that music superstar Taylor Swift was stalking him and hacking his phone. Four guns, including the AR-15 used in the shootings, were transferred to his father, a procedure allowed under Illinois law. “There’s certainly evidence that there’s some sort of mental health issues involved,” Tazewell County Sheriff Robert Huston said.
