I wish we could read the police reports, especially the ones regarding the search of Hinrichs' apartment. I think it's suspicious that the search warrant information has been sealed. Hinrichs is already dead, so releasing the information wouldn't jeopardize a criminal charge against him.

It's also suspicious that we haven't seen any photos of the scene of the explosion before it was cleaned up. Photos of that scene might allow us to estimate the power of the explosion. A powerful explosion would indicate that the bomb was designed to kill several people.

A depressed college student who simply wanted to kill himself wouldn't strap on a large home-made explosive charge and walk towards a packed football stadium. It's naive to think this was just a suicide. It is very reasonable to believe Hinrichs was trying to get into the stadium.

Perhaps it's just a coincidence that Hinrichs had a Pakistani roommate. But how do you explain Hinrichs' inquiry about the purchase of ammonium nitrate? And what are the chances that the roommate didn't see, or at least smell, the explosive ingredients.

I wish the FBI would simply say this is an on-going investigation, and they don't want to release any info yet.

The WSJ article and the statements by the O.U. president are an insult to anybody with common sense.

"I wish the FBI would simply say this is an on-going investigation, and they don't want to release any info yet."

Not only the FBI, but also president Boren. Boren has jumped out there with statements that, in some cases, seem just plain nuts, and in others, make him look like a liar. A simple "This is an ongoing investigation...etc." would have sufficed, and sounded a hekkuva lot better.

I find the sealing of the search warrant suspicious, too. Usually, they only do that if foul play is involved. If this is a simple suicide, they wouldn't need to do that.
