Bad? Brilliant?

A dead man can tell no tales.  There recent media coverage of both Steven Hatfill, whom the government had to pay 5.8 million dollars for destroying his livelihood and reputation, and, now deceased Bruce Ivins, a government scientist, who had a financial motive for committing the terrorist acts.

However this developing story may not be as straight forward as corporate media will lead people to believe.  Brad Friedman, Bradblog.com, notes that a Washington Post report that has Fort Detrick sources stating that:

Ezzell said the experiments did not involve anthrax in its dried form, the type found in the letter to then-Senate Majority Leader Thomas A. Daschle (D-S.D.) that was so finely ground it could immediately become airborne. Ivins worked with small teams of scientists; their findings had global significance in the field of anthrax studies and were later used by opponents of a mandatory vaccination program instituted by the Pentagon that has been highly controversial.

What is the truth?   Will justice for those threatened and those who died be served?

Another Item on the "List"

There is little doubt that President Obama, his VP, and cabinet will have a huge job to just clean-up the mess left by the current occupant of the White House, his vice, and mis-administration. The anthrax investigation is yet another open issue that will require a new regime in the Justice Department to reach resolution.

Suicide is not an admission of guilt. From recent reports the case of Dr. Nivins gives cause to investigate an FBI squad that seems to have spent too much time studying the KGB and Gestapo. Intimidation, innuendo, leaks, and harassment are not how American law enforcement should investigate a capital murder case.

I think this investigation may success.The president and his VP should help for the officers for their investigation.
