Letters sent to President Obama and Sen. Roger Wicker test positive for ricin

[Hober Mallow]

A third letter sent to another senator (who has yet to be identified) is being tested now.  This in the days just after the Boston Marathon bombings.

From AP:

The FBI says the letters sent to President Barack Obama and Sen. Roger Wicker are related and are both postmarked out of Memphis, Tenn., dated April 8.

In an intelligence bulletin obtained by The Associated Press, the FBI says the letters both say: "To see a wrong and not expose it, is to become a silent partner to its continuance." Both letters are signed, "I am KC and I approve this message."

The FBI says the substance in both letters have preliminarily tested positive for ricin, a potentially fatal poison.

Both the letters to Wicker, R-Miss., and to Obama were intercepted at off-site mail facilities.

I think they caught the guy.  He will probably say he didn't do it.  They we will spend millions on a trial.

He's a paranoid delusional nutball, who believes he is drawing attention to the secret black market in stolen body parts!

Well, duh, is there anyone on IHD who isn't aware that there is an overseas black market in organs?  Anyone here think poisoning the president is going to have any effect on it?

 Wow, news flash for ya'll - enough money really will buy you just about anything!
