. . .and the dog; odd traveling with 'ricin' and a dog. Do we have at least, his/ name? (Do we know WHAT kind of dog? Perhaps, he was a 'professional'. . .)
“We” don’t have the guys name, but I’m guessing the cops know it, along with a lot more than that or they’d be asking for help from the public (as in the Seattle Ferry incidents, haven’t heard much on that one recently either). As to the dog’s type, they haven’t said, though the pooch is described as being quite dead.
Rather amusing that the authorities always state that these incidents are non-terrorist related. Almost as if it is scripted. I imagine that is a Federal requirement, drilled into the heads of the PR folks at training conferences and other training events. The statement is too consisitent not to be a federal requirement. You break the rules and fail to make the required “no terrorist” satement, and “No Homeland Security Funds for you”. Interesting to watch, but somewhat embarassing since we’re paying plenty to watch this drama being acted out for us. We’ve all seen the authorities present the same play too often totake the disclaimers too seriously.
