I just heard on the radio that a 50-ish-year-old Pakistanee being held in a New Jersey jail as suspect since 9-11 died "mysteriously" in jail today. They were checking him for Anthrax.

This would be a pretty good clue, huh?

I just heard that also. I hope he was actually guilty and that we weren't directly responsible. Otherwise Jesse is going to be all over the news again. God I hate that media whore!:|

Well, if he had Anthrax poisoning...IF, IF, IF...maybe that is a link to the mailing of the letters??

There was no traces of anthrax found in his blood, so I guess that idea is ruled out. Would have been nice if they had a lead though.

<<The man had been treated for the gum infection gingivitis with 500 mg of tetracycline three times daily from October 1 to October 6. Tetracycline is one of the antibiotics commonly used to treat anthrax exposure, but a post-mortem test showed no signs of the bacterium. The deceased showed no flu-like symptons before his death, Hudson County officials said. >>

Tetracycline can induce blood clots in those that are susceptible to them.
