You are correct. The first statements were that no suicide note was found, now we have a suicide note on a computer.

If the computer was not locked down could the roommate or someone else have written the suicide note on an open keyboard?

To those who will reply to this post that FReepers who question the official line(s) are all conspiracy theorists, remember there were first hand accounts on that initial thread which indicated explosives being heard around a stadium.

Unless, of course, one believes that a typical American youth would commit suicide by sitting outside a stadium with explosives in a backpack and not with guns, knives, pills, bridge jumping or a car crash.

I would have thought that the computer would have been in the possession of criminal investigators as a result of his public demolition (which resulted in his death) and his attempts to buy "explosives" (through ebay and in person at a fertilizer store).

But I guess they left it turned on in the home.

Also it is possible to hit the backpace key and remove text that may be incriminating. "The message said this". Well is that ALL he typed?

If you look at Charles Bishop/Bishra's note, the word "terrorist" has been crossed out in "terrorist act I am about to commit". I'm not willing to believe without a doubt that he is the one who crossed that word out. He had only begun writing his letter. I would have started over if I made an editorial decision so early into say a love letter (or something equally emotional/high profile).

The two kids at the school in Colorado had bombs set up that did not go off.

He was 21, it's not like he couldn't have driven that Town Car to the nearest pawn shop or gun store, bought a gun and ammunition, and still gone out with a bang, just not such a big one.
