FBI says anthrax arrived in the mail; letter feared lost
AP 10/16/01 The anthrax that contaminated a supermarket tabloid building in Florida probably arrived in a letter that was tossed in the trash and burned before investigators looked at it, the FBI said Tuesday. FBI spokeswoman Judy Orihuela said investigators reached the conclusion after finding anthrax Monday in a Boca Raton postal building that handled mail for tabloid publishing company American Media Inc.
Authorities say two letters containing anthrax were sent from Trenton, N.J. - one to NBC anchorman Tom Brokaw in New York, the other to the Washington office of Sen. Tom Daschle, D-S.D. Brokaw's assistant has become infected with the skin form of anthrax, a less serious condition than the Florida cases.
Authorities also said Tuesday that three letters mentioning anthrax were mailed to Brokaw, including the one tainted with the germ.
The second Brokaw letter, postmarked Sept. 20 from St. Petersburg, Fla., contained a powdery substance but tested negative for anthrax. The third letter was mailed Sept. 18 by a New Jersey Statehouse secretary who found it inside a FedEx package sent to the governor's office.
