Las Vegas Cybertruck bomber Matthew Livelsberger “preyed” on his first wife and mocked her struggles with depression — years before he shot himself in the head and blew up his explosive-laden vehicle, one her friends has claimed.
Stacie Wilssens, who was neighbors with Livelsberger and his now-ex-wife, Sara, in Colorado Springs, recalled the highly decorated Army soldier as being “bizarre and unhealthy” after she started to get to know him around 2012.
“He preyed on her,” Wilssens told the Colorado Springs Gazette of Livelsberger’s behavior towards his then-wife.
She didn’t elaborate further, though, on his apparent actions.
Wilssens said she disliked Livelsberger so much that she mostly opted to spend time with Sara when he was off on deployment with his military job.
Still, Livelsberger’s time away from home left his wife struggling and depressed, Wilssens said.
“She was trying to get healthy and he would mock her,” the friend told the outlet.
“Nothing ever felt stable or steady between the two of them.”
The couple — who divorced in 2018 — were “polar opposites,” Wilssens added.
She said Sara was a Bernie Sanders supporter during the 2016 election, while her husband backed Donald Trump.
It comes as a video shared on Sara’s Facebook page in 2016 captured Livelsberger referring to his wife as “Sara Beans” as they prepared to jet off on a vacation back when they were still married.
At one point in the clip, Livelsberger apparently chided his wife, saying that she was “not allowed to be weird” at the airport or she’ll “embarrass him.”
After the couple split, Wilssens said Sara left Colorado and has since remarried and is healthy again.
Meanwhile, Livelsberger remarried, too, in 2022.
His current wife, who he shares a baby daughter with, only broke up with him just last week, law enforcement sources told The Post.
Livelsberger left his Colorado Springs home the day after Christmas after his wife confronted him over his apparent infidelity, the sources said.
After leaving Colorado, Livelsberger then rented the Tesla Cybertruck via the Turo app and made his way to Vegas, where he parked in front of the Trump hotel on New Year’s Day, detonated explosives stashed in the truck and shot himself in the head, according to cops.
Investigators are probing whether the soldier’s motive was personal, or political, given the location of the blast outside Trump’s hotel.
The FBI was also looking at the choice of vehicle because of its ties to Trump’s close ally, Elon Musk
“It’s not lost on us that it’s in front of the Trump building, that it’s a Tesla vehicle, but we don’t have information at this point that definitively tells us or suggests it was because of this particular ideology,” said Spencer Evans, the Las Vegas FBI’s special agent in charge.
Livelsberger — a Green Beret — had only just returned from an overseas assignment in Germany and was on approved leave when he died, US officials said.
