* DXer … Why weren’t all of Dr. Ivins emails provided as required under the Freedom of Information Act?

Dr. Bruce Ivins

As he has many times before, DXer is demanding production of Dr. Ivins’ emails as required by law …

• Why weren’t all of Dr. Ivins emails provided as required under the Freedom of Information Act?
• If the Sunshine Act does not apply to the DOJ’s actions in this case, then the Obama Administration’s purported embracing of FOIA is insincere.
• The memos written by Attorney General and President Obama in light of the DOJ’s withholding of Dr. Ivins’ emails — even to include the emails from mid-September to mid-October 2001 seem to have been just nice PR.
• The DOJ, in light of its interference with USAMRIID’s FOIA production, apparently did not get the Attorney General’s memo.

in another comment, DXer said …

• John Peterson at USAMEDD and Lt. Colonel Laurel at USAMRIID told the USAMRIID CO that 50 pages every time DXer made a fuss was quite enough.
• Their approach, in close collaboration with DOJ/FBI has been to string out production over the past two years, thus preventing the relevant emails from being produced.

and another …

• The USAMRIID CO’s acquiescence in the Lt. Col. Laurel’s and USAMEDD’s John Peterson foot-dragging on the production of Ivin’s post-911 emails should not continue.
• They should be told to take the emails into a room, take a black magic marker to the proper nouns requiring b(6)(7) redaction and then leave them for someone to come and copy and upload by tomorrow.
• You want timelines?  I could give you a timeline based on written correspondence showing a total abdication of the duty to comply with FOIA.  If Lew were handling the production, I think he would have them turned around in a day — not two years.
• This glanders issue illustrates deliberate mischaracterization of the documentary evidence made possible only because the DOJ/FBI was allowed interfered with USAMRIID’s compliance with FOI.
• The USAMMED officials with the relevant responsibility idly sat by and let it happen.

While DXer tends to avoid my requests that he summarize his theory, he does ask that I post all these graphics all at once.

* has the FBI won? Has the FBI, by delaying and withholding information, simply beaten down what should be an active questioning of their paper-thin assertion that Dr. Bruce Ivins is the sole perpetrator of the 2001 anthrax murders?

LMW COMMENT …

Has the FBI, by delaying and withholding information, simply beaten down what should be an active questioning of their paper-thin assertion that Dr. Bruce Ivins is the sole perpetrator of the 2001 anthrax murders?

Not only has the FBI failed to prove that Dr. Ivins was the sole perpetrator, they have not even proven he was involved at all.

Here’s what the FBI is still not addressing …

• • there is no physical evidence linking Dr. Ivins to the murders
  • there are no witnesses linking Dr. Ivins to the preparation or mailing of the attack anthrax
  • the timeline the FBI has proposed, for Ivins preparing the anthrax or going to Princeton to mail the letters, is impossible
  • the DNA science, at best, links Dr. Ivins to a beaker to which 350 other scientists may have had access

Specifically, the USAMRIID and DOJ have inexcusably failed to produce

(under FOIA) Dr. Ivins’ post-911 emails and his B3 access records

throughout the period they were kept.

Other than Congressman Rush Holt and on this blog, I have seen no comments from the media or others questioning the FBI’s pathetic case.

Maybe people are reading through the new papers released by the FBI on Friday, and we will see comments when that process is completed.

Or maybe nobody cares any more that the worst bioterrorist attack in the history of the U.S., after the most extensive investigation in the history of the FBI, remains unsolved.

Can it be true that the FBI is telling us all they know, and that they really can’t offer any better proof that any person or persons actually committed those murders in 2001? After all those investigative man hours and untold resources, is this it?

Or … is the FBI hiding what it knows and covering up the truth?

And … if so, why?

And … does anybody care?
