Ali al-Timimi, to my mind, is the true culprit.
See my post at #15 - it is a corker of a story.

i agree
...and LadyDoc in #18 is correct. Irvins may have been nuts, but he wasn’t capable of weaponizing it by himself.
He didn’t have the expertise in that area, and he didn’t have access to the necessary equipment.
and if he was in on it at all (which i personally doubt, for many reasons), he certainly wasn’t alone, and didn’t actually mail any of it.
...and even if i didn’t know anything about it, if the LA Times is pushing it, i’d know it wasn’t true.
IIRC, one of the key pieces of evidence against Ivins is that he purposely sent a phony culture sample for analysis instead of a real one from his flask of spores. Once the FBI found out about that he killed himself.
