Wow.
This is a very good and fairly complete synopsis by the AP.

The arrest of Scott Ritter, 41, who served as a weapons inspector in Iraq from 1991-98, was first reported by The Daily Gazette of Schenectady on Saturday.

One question I still have not seen answered:
What caused a reporter from The Daily Gazette of Schenectady to revisit an old story from a year-and-a-half ago ask the DA about it?

The DA found out about the case and fired the ADA, Cynthia Preiser over it. The original stories placed the firing at "last week", so I'm not sure of the day, but perhaps a reporter raised an eyebrow as I wouldn't think assistant district attorneys are fired over just any old thing, and looked into it and the story came out from there.

Now, I'd like to know what brought it to the DA's attention...
