Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Pat Leahy, one of the targets of the 2001 anthrax attacks, says he believes Bruce Ivins did not act alone. And he said so today while FBI Director Robert Mueller was in front of his committee.
Mueller is giving the appearance of giving in to Senate pressure though, and has named an independent review, from the National Academy of Sciences, to take a close look at how the FBI has handled the case.
For more analysis, here’s Mueller is giving in to Senate pressure though, and has named Glen Greenwald’s take. He notes that Mueller’s panel of scientists will ONLY review the scientific methods used and NOT the full FBI case.
In other words, Mueller refuses to submit the FBI’s deductive reasoning, dot-connecting, etc., to scrutiny, which caught the attention of Sen. Charles Grassley.
