The seven devices include four that exploded in Austin, one that detonated at a FedEx facility in Schertz, one that was retrieved from a FedEx facility in Southeast Austin near the airport, and one that the suspect detonated in his car, killing himself early Wednesday, authorities have said.
"I would classify this as a confession," Manley said.
The phone was found in Conditt's possession after he killed himself early Wednesday with an explosive device as authorities closed in.
