High quality rumor-mongering from the Los Angeles Times again. Same author who the FBI fed with the “break” in the story, incl. the brother who said Ivins could have done it. The reporter failed to mention the brother hadn’t spoken to Ivins in 23 years.

If you have been follwing my posts for the past month you will see that I have been an advocate of the anthrax coming froma foreign source.
Tonight, I had a meeting with an ex-government officer who worked for an agency I do not want to give right now.
I was told that the US Government has determined that the strain of anthrax released in the U.S. came directly from a U.S. weapons lab. This has been confirmed by detailed DNA analylsis of the Ames strain of the anthrax discovered. Apparently the analysis has now narrowed down the source not only to the lab but the section of the lab from where it came.
This now means that an arrest is imminent of a U.S. scientist working on this project.
Shermy, but doesn’t seem that if he came home for dinner on 9/17, we would have heard about it by now from the family lawyer?
The Post article also contains more leaked information:
Investigators now believe that Ivins waited until evening to make the drive to Princeton on Sept. 17, 2001. He showed up at work that day and stayed briefly, then took several hours of administrative leave from the lab, according to partial work logs. Based on information from receipts and interviews, authorities say Ivins filled up his car’s gas tank, attended a meeting outside of the office in the late afternoon, and returned to the lab for a few minutes that evening before moving off the radar screen and presumably driving overnight to Princeton. The letters were postmarked Sept. 18.
If it is confirmed that he always came home for dinner but didn’t on that one night, that would be very notable, wouldn’t it?
