Man killed by bomb around his neck
« Reply #15 on: September 02, 2003, 07:16:25 PM »
I'm curious about this: "Why is nobody trying to get this thing off me? He pulled a key out and started a timer. I heard the thing ticking when he did it. It's gonna go off. I don't have a lot of time. I'm not lying."

He pulled out a key, for what?, and started a timer, on what?

That didn't strike anyone else as odd in the context it was given?

I can't pass any judgement on the situation, it is all very odd - but that one line just seems very odd if he pulled out a key for his neck bomb and started the timer on it, which is how I read it.

The evidence is not entirely in.  None of the news sites I've been to say the man with the bomb locked around his neck is the bomber, or the one that detonated it.

This is what the guy with the bomb strapped to him was saying...presumably about the person who strapped the thing to him in the first place.  I think he was trying to get the point across that it was armed and was going to blow him to bits if someone didn't get it off of him.

Thats what we're waiting for. Who is "He".  
The pizzaman? Someone who place the bomb on the pizzaman?
Time might tell.

It's kinda confusing but as I read it, it's all in quotes, as in it is all what the guy was saying.  he asked why it's not being removed, then explained that 'he' (whoever that is) pulled the key, started a timer,.....

seems like some of the above posters thought the guy who blew up pulled a key and started the timer,  not how I read it.

Where did you get this from SOB?  I'm not taking you to task, but the journalist/rag needs a spanking for such poor and vague writing:)

That's just the impression I got after reading the story.  I could be way off base, but probably not as I'm rarely wrong about anything.  ;)

-edit- If you were referring to the quote, it was from the article :)

I'm sure you read it right.  I find it sad that I've seen T.V. shows and movies that use this exact plot, and now it comes to full fruition. :(

Maybe the Pizza man, who went to the "remote location" was abducted when he knocked on the door, he was expecting to exchange the pie for some money and be on his way.

But instead, he was held at gunpoint and forced to wear the bomb. The bomber then told him to go rob a bank, and return with the money in exchange for his life.


Of course I'm just guessing, too wierd.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
