“It's a statement by a member of a group about what a leader of the group told her. I don't think that would qualify as “hearsay.”

Ed, hearsay is information gathered by one person from another concerning some event , condition, or thing of which the first person had no direct experience

“There are even indications from confidential sources I cannot identify that Ivins confessed to his psychiatrist that he was the anthrax mailer.”

That is utter nonsense!

"Ed, hearsay is information gathered by one person from another concerning some event , condition, or thing of which the first person had no direct experience"

Like I said, it is NOT hearsay. The therapist who made the statement worked with the psychiatrist she cited and both treated Bruce Ivins. So, she had direct experience, and that means her statement was NOT hearsay.
