Cops May Close Anthrax Probe Today
~snip~ Among the unanswered questions in the investigation is how Ivins could have created the fine anthrax powder that, distributed in the mail, killed five people and terrorized the nation. Ivins' lab didn't deal with powdered anthrax and there is disagreement over whether he could have created it — and if he did, how he kept it a secret.

Yet, they may close the case TODAY!

4. Too many questions still
Have they PROVED that he did this alone and without accomplices? Doubtful. Can they answer the questions raised in the OP? He did not confess as far as I can tell from what I have read. So, closing case may be premature.

IF the case is really closed and they are sure they have the right guy, they can tell us all about why they are sure they have the one and only perp.

5. Gee .. wouldn't law enforcement everywhere love this technique
1) catch bad guy
2) bad guy commits suicide just as you start to apprehend him
3) case closed
Think of the unemployed defense lawyers, and all the BMWs that won't get bought...and all the lawyers' kids with crooked teeth & "bumpy" noses.. c'mon, bad-guys..think of the lawyers, wontcha?

6. I certainly trust ABC and its news division!
After all, it was ABC that gave us The Path to 9/11.

(funny, has Greenwald forgotten that? I don't think he's mentioned it, yet...)
