Ricin Suspect Was Tracked via Mail Scanners

A high-tech computer system that captures images of “every mail piece that is processed” by the United State Postal Service was critical in helping federal agents track the Texas woman arrested today for allegedly sending ricin-tainted letters to President Barack Obama and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

In a U.S. District Court complaint filed today against Shannon Guess Richardson, an FBI agent details how investigators traced the ricin letters back to New Boston, Texas, where the 35-year-old Richardson (seen below) lives with her husband.

This gives me an idea. Let's start a new type of letter writing campaign, one in which we all can express our displeasure with the Kenyan Dictator inhabiting the White House.

All legal of course, no one gets hurt, no "threats" or anything like that - we just express our displeasure by writing "FUBO!" in big letters across the backs of every envelope or package we send.

I'm starting right now. I have at least 10 envelopes I'm mailing tomorrow and I'm writing FUBO! In black magic marker (hey, that's racist! across the backs of all of 'em.

I don’t care if she was tranquilized and tagged by aliens. I’m not going to be sold on the Stasi data vac program.

Not guilty.

[Red Dog #1]

I'm voting guilty but pretty darn hot. Sure wish my HTML skillzzzs were better so I could post of picks I found of her with a very brief Goggle search.

You forgot to wait for the picture .....

Well Laz, would you hit it? I wouldn't. Been with red haired checks before --- all of 'em psychotic. The sex may be great but you'll spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder and hanging onto your hoo-haa for fear she'll catch you unguarded just one time and Lorena Bobbit your .... well you know.

[JoeDetweiler]

The problem is that in my neck of the woods about 99% of post office employees are Obama voters. My mail might never get through...

[usconservative]

I don’t know that abbreviated profanity will help. Of course, none of it will ever make it to the Undocumented Kenyan. Just some low-level flunky.

Hey, I need some way to vent my complete, total disdain for the corrupt a$$h*le sitting in the White House .... it's either that or I go back to blowing up cars that have an Obama '08 or Obama '12 bumper sticker on 'em ...... take your pick.

(just kidding about the blowing up cars with Obama stickers on 'em ..... or am I? Only PRISM knows for sure!)

I am very sorry that she is from Texas. And it is such a waste, she is a very attractive woman.

I loath Obozo, but there is no way I would ever do something like she did. I guess she did not think she could be caught.

But, the people who Obozo should fear are the spooks. They are trained in how to simply do things. No threats, not amateur hour and no slip ups.

Now, if states simply defy DC, things could get really nasty. That is not likely, but it could happen. The left should think carefully how far they push the latest abuses. We are all very tired of their abuse of power, defiance of law, lies and deception and their terminal arrogance.

FUBO!

[usconservative]

Please don’t go getting Biblical on me .... sometimes I just wanna be naughty while the Lord looks the other way and lets me have some fun ....

[usconservative]

But, the people who Obozo should fear are the spooks.

"Spooks" and Obama in the same sentence! That's racist!

(now where's that picture at dammit?!)

[Venturer]

She isn’t too bright.

Any self respecting mailer who doesn’t want to get tagged would drive at least 100 miles to place such a letter in a public mail box.

[SgtBob]

Skillzzz?? Hell, I can’t even spell HTLM...SEE?

Red heads are a tough breed. It takes a strong man, with a strong will to survive with one...as I have for 32 years. That said, “Hammer Time!”.

The affidavit is interesting reading. (available at link)

The husband could have modified the date on the computers to make it appear they were printed during a time where he had an alibi.

However her admission that she planted evidence to implicate the husband, and that she was the one that mailed the letters, albeit forced to by the husband, is problematic.

My guess is that they have video tape of her actually mailing the letters or at least bluffed her to get the admission.

What would be interesting is to have

• internet search provider independent confirmation of when the search on ricin was performed and whether that ruled out either the husband or wife. But even that could be cleverly timed to occur on a computer. I don't think dates on their computers can definitely prove anything. But if they didn't think through the dates, the dates may prompt a confession.
• Whether the husband had knowledge of ricin through the military.
• What her full story is about how her husband forced her to mail them. And whether or not she had opportunity to turn him in prior to mailing them.
