In it I stated the FBI should release the evidence they've clearly held back.
Today, "Scientists are challenging the FBI" to release said evidence. Separately, Bruce Ivins' lawyer is under the
impression the FBI letting the case drag on for years and having let his client
roam free, testifies to the notion they had nothing, "If it's
such earth-shattering stuff, what's been going on since 2005.
Why is he on the street if they think it's that important?" On the contrary, this is the FBI we’re talking about – the same agency that let terrorists
dangerously roam free in New Jersey for 18-months while they watched them under
the guise of gathering intel.
FBI headquarters exhibits very poor judgment time and time again
in this regard. Letting
criminals run free for years is not uncommon with them, nor is it proof of their innocence, but a
shameful reminder of the FBI’s poor practices that endanger American and world
citizens on a regular basis. The FBI is going to cause a terrible disaster one day with this practice that
will make 9/11 look small in comparison. They have capable FBI agents, but headquarters is
broken beyond repair, refusing to change.

Scientists Challenge FBI to Release Data in U.S. Anthrax Probe
Aug. 8 (Bloomberg) -- Scientists challenged the FBI and prosecutors to share
more data to back their allegation that an Army bioweapons expert worked alone
to kill five people who handled anthrax-laced letters he put in the U.S. mail.
Researchers and legal experts questioned the reliability of novel genetic
tests cited by the FBI as ``breakthrough'' evidence that pinned the 2001 crime
on scientist Bruce E. Ivins. Because the FBI hasn't offered such tests in
criminal cases, experts said it's uncertain the results could have been used in
court as evidence against Ivins, who died July 29 of a drug overdose.

Gaps in system kept Ivins at high-security lab
Or was it just that the government's evidence was too weak to act? That's
what Ivins' attorney says. "If it's such earth-shattering stuff, what's been going on since 2005?" Paul
F. Kemp asked Wednesday after the government made its case with a news
conference and a pile of documents. "Why is he on the street if they think it's
that important?"
