Beltway Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary-Wed., Oct. 23,2002
Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences | October 23, 2002 | Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences

Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.

All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

They must be jealous of the affection, that's all.

Back to the subject. Don't you imagine that all the calls coming in to the tip line would be recorded and caller i.d. captured?

wouldn't worry too much about that.
most of the guys that obsessively bitch about W in here either still live with mom/dad,
or always wanted to try out for the ball team but were afraid to shower w/the guys (for obvious reasons) and are still really bitter ...

WTOP reporting military plane was flying over 270 searching and lots of police but now things seem to have calmed down.

Ok good..that's plenty of time to do some actual chores and cook dinner.

I pray there is nothing to this latest report.

Fox reports there is an authenticating mark on each note the sniper leaves but FOXNEWS has decided not to share what that mark is with the public.

Has this been covered anywhere today by other news media?
