Excerpts from a post by Dr. Meryl Nass at …

Ivins’ death scenario begs many questions.
- Why wasn’t he given a Tylenol antidote to prevent liver failure?
- Ivins was allegedly found unconscious on the bathroom floor with an orange liquid next to him.
- A Tylenol overdose requires several days before you die, and does not cause coma for days.
- If the benadryl in Tylenol PM led to unconsciousness (according to a later account by Scott Shane in the NY Times) there was still time to treat him successfully for Tylenol toxicity.
- Ivins was under 24/7 surveillance by FBI, from the house next door.
- FBI should have identified an overdose before several days had passed, and the window of opportunity for treatment was lost.
- FBI could have furnished Ivins’ medical providers with information that might have saved his life.
The medical records of Ivins’ hospitalization have not been released.
LMW COMMENT …
- I have always believed that the death of Dr. Bruce Ivins was too suspicious and too convenient for the FBI (i.e., no need to prove their case in court).
- Under such circumstances, one would think the FBI would be particularly careful to assure that everything that proves their assertion that Dr. Ivins committed suicide was convincingly presented.
- The FBI has not done that, which only serves to stir the suspicions.
My novel CASE CLOSED presents a very different view of Dr. Ivins’ death. Although fictional, my scenario has been found by many readers, including one highly respected member of the U.S. Intelligence Community, to be “quite plausible.”

The New York Times says the FBI’s anthrax case has “too many loose ends.” Find out where some of those looses ends might have originated in my novel CASE CLOSED. Sure it’s fiction, but many readers, including a highly respected member of the U.S. Intelligence Community, think my premise is actually “quite plausible.”

Here are excerpts from that August 8, 2008 post …
- Casting further doubt on the FBI’s anthrax case, accused government scientist Bruce Ivins passed two polygraph tests and a handwriting analysis comparing samples of his handwriting to writing contained in the anthrax letters, U.S. officials familiar with the investigation say.
- Ivins passed the first polygraph to satisfy a security requirement prior to working with the FBI as part of a team of scientists at the Fort Detrick, Md., lab who originally helped analyze the anthrax letters.
- He passed a second exam after he became a suspect.
- Investigators also failed to uncover other critical evidence linking Ivins directly to the letters. For instance:
- No textile fibers were found in his office, residence or vehicles matching fibers found on the scotch tape used to seal the envelopes;
- No pens were found matching the ink used to address the envelopes;
- Samples of his hair failed to match hair follicles found inside the Princeton, N.J., mailbox used to mail the letters.
- Also, no souvenirs of the crime, such as newspaper clippings, were found in his possession as commonly seen in serial murder cases.
- What’s more, the FBI could not place Ivins at the crime scene with evidence, such as gas station or other receipts, at the time the letters were mailed in September and October 2001.
- Ivins, in an apparent suicide, last week overdosed on Tylenol 3 with codeine. His lawyers say he was depressed and driven to suicide by overly aggressive FBI agents who stalked him and his family.
- They say the government’s case against him amounted to “heaps of innuendo” and that their client would have been acquitted if he had survived. They point out that the government’s evidence was not even strong enough to present to a grand jury, let alone a trial jury.
- Indeed, prosecutors had not delivered the case to a grand jury for indictment. And the Pentagon had not revoked Ivins’ security clearance.
- Prosecutors were equally confident another scientist, Steven Hatfill, was the anthrax culprit before recently agreeing to pay him $6 million in damages.
