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.

What if he didn't "practice" with .223 ammo? They're definitely looking for casings in that area.

Side thought -- they must be darned sure that they have this guy nailed to let all this leak so badly and hugely...or they bungled HORRIBLY...

The good news to hold onto is regardless of who or what this is all about, the feds are onto them and it's a matter of time before they "are brought to justice" and I'm sure the President will agree with us it should be a slow, painful justice.

Serving warrants but no arrests expected?? Need reasonable cause except under Patriot Act (I think).

FOFLOL. I dunno, when she was having her "work" done she should have had a personality transplant, too.

just maybe they have the Shooter in custody already?

Thats what I think, from earlier with the 2 guys in the truck and the school bus incident earlier.

It's all speculation right now. We'll just have to wait and see.

They better have someone under arrest or at least staked out...I can't believe they would broadcast all of this and not have a suspect in mind.

Agree with guy on Fox - if warrants haven't been served and feds aren't already in place, why oh why would the media leak that warrants are going to be served. Might as well get on a megaphone and yell "get out now" to the terrorists.
