This is a bizarre story, and I want more details.

Did the homeowner have a bad relationship with his tenants? Sounds like they were crazy, what with the cement in the drains.
Why did the homeowner show up at the house with an electrician?
What made the homeowner and the electrician suspicious about the switches?
What's up with those red splotches on the roof which are visible in some photographs of the home?

Did the homeowner have a bad relationship with his tenants? Sounds like they were crazy, what with the cement in the drains............i would assume so, but there is also the fact that is was vacant for a while, so was the explosive device already planted when the cemented drains were noticed? the police had been there a week earlier to investigate that.

Why did the homeowner show up at the house with an electrician?......... the house was going on the market and had failed the home inspection. i assume the electrician was there to start working on the failed issues.

What made the homeowner and the electrician suspicious about the switches?....... there were wires visible where there ought not be wires

What's up with those red splotches on the roof which are visible in some photographs of the home?...... no idea

The electrician noticed that the drywall had been disturbed, as had a ceiling, and wires lead into that space. Inside was where someone set them up the bomb.

I suspect the red splotches were outside on the roof over the rafters where the multigallon tank of gasoline bomb had been placed.
