Ivins' Lawyer Rebuts DOJ Anthrax Allegations
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=93426239&ft=1&f=1007

NPR.org, August 8, 2008 · The Department of Justice says it is confident that Army scientist Bruce Ivins sent the letters containing powdered anthrax that killed five people in 2001. But because Ivins committed suicide, his guilt or innocence will never be determined in court.

In disclosing its evidence against Ivins, the government links the anthrax used in the attacks to a sample Ivins created. But Ivins' lawyer, Paul Kemp, says "dozens ... if not hundreds" of scientists, contractors and others used that same anthrax.

What follows is a detailed look at the main points of evidence drawn from court documents, public statements by senior Justice Department officials, and an interview with Kemp.

2. the government's going to close this case
and they have nothing. they should not be allowed to get away with this. i really wonder if he even killed himself and wasn't actually murdered just so they could wrap up the case.

3. I'm starting to think they were desperate to "solve" the case, and picked on this guy....
I also find it interesting that they haven't provided any evidence as to why he chose AMI in Florida to first attack.
