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.

LE was suppose to release the names of the 2 guys in the upcoming news conference, but the media has beat them to it.

It was reported earlier that some of the leaks were put out on purpose

CNN asked police should these 2 men be considered armed and dangerous?

Police source said, that's an understatement!

I've been caught up in the excitement of this, as have we all, but this statement made me remember that this is not over yet. The most dangerous part may be yet to come. Now I know why valleygal, last night, asked for prayers for the families of those closely involved in this. I'm not much of a pray-er, though I've said more than a few during this whole sniper thing, but I think it would be appropriate for those who ARE given to praying to say one now. The worst may be on its way before the case is done.

Can you be convicted by a tree? They won't leaf you alone until you're completely sapped!

Wonder if Moose will mention Lee Malvo and John Mohammad alias John Allen Williams and says they are persons of interest and not suspects. And this after certain pundits have already said that these people are likley suspects but will be called persons of interest so that they won't be afraid to talk to LE! LOL (dang media)

Hoping that we get a few details this time and not another 'communication' to the shooter!

Are you guys going to write it and then post it for all of us to copy? It deserves it's own threat too btw! IF so, be sure to ping all of us!

Yes! Let's ping everyone we can think of. The memory of Clinton's use of OKC to bash conservatives and make himself "relevant" again is making me sick.

YOu know I have to say, I've known some very nice Nation of Islam converts....and here in DC they sent a very differnt kind of message with the work they did in the city.

What the hell is going on in prisons???!?!?!?!?!

The inmates are becoming either jihadist warriors or rock stars.

"Rose bushes + thorns = ouch = DNA"

I think so, too, Sac. Good deduction.
