Anthrax terrorist commits' suicide when Feds close in
« on: August 02, 2008, 02:34:18 PM »
So everyone can catch up to speed:http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080802/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/anthrax_scientist

What personally suprised me about this was, that the guy had to have had some kind of high-level security clearance and background checks if he was working for the military in any capacity on Biological weapons. I guess you can't just screen everything...

He was a Suspect....  :noid

No charges were laid or word on if there was any pending... :noid

Quite a few years of being a suspect would drive people to take their own lives.

Don't forget the original suspect in this case.  His name was smeared by the US Gov't and ended up suing them successfully.  So it turns out they were wrong?  Who says they got it right this time.

Same goes for the original suspect in the Olympic bombings.  Can't remember either of these guys' names, but the supposed Olympic bomber died of a heart attack a few years back.

Innocent until proven guilty.   :rolleyes:

Don't get me wrong...terrible crimes, but the investigation was a sham.

No ... No... he was a person of interest.

Did he kill himself with anthrax? If so, they probably got the right guy.

Hehe, an evilly witty sentence... :t

Sounds like they had good reason to be interested in him.
