In his sleepy Maine hometown, teen-aged Trevor Bickford was just one of the guys.
The Wells High School student won an honorable mention two years ago for his entry in the state’s Scholastic Arts Awards, cited for his submission in the jewelry category. He played on the town football team, winners of the 2018 state title, and spent summers as a groundskeeper at the local golf course in what locals called “The Friendliest Town in Maine.”
“He was chill,” recalled an old friend who worked alongside the accused terrorist at the Old Marsh Country Club. “He was always just quiet and laid back. He never got into fights or anything ... He was never like alone or anything. He had friends.”
