I guess we'll have to see if anything else happens in the coming days...

I'd be most concerned about 4/19 and (to a lesser extent) 4/20.

ABC saying ricin was in the letter, ditto ones sent to Hart and Russell. Hart and Russell are being evacuated now.

Same guy, sbane?  Maybe.  Maybe it's part of larger organized effort.

The article I saw said the letter to Obama actually arrived around the same time as the one to Wicker, but the info was only released now (probably more to do with different mail handling systems in addition to everything else)

None of these letters can make it through to their recipients.....not possible, it's all tested.  So why bother?

Looks like they're letting KC go. They think he was framed.
