Something about this story just doesn't add up.

Considering how hard it is in this day and age to keep anything secret, I find it hard to believe something of this magnitude was suppressed for this long.

Probably only a small number of people ever knew about it at the time, and all of those were veteran law enforcement. I'm sure that helped kept the secrecy pretty tight.

Sounds like some of this story may be B.S.!

1st - anything that's going to emit that much radiation that it would kill a person would most likely have tripped NEST rad monitors as it was moved into and around the country.

2nd - anything that's going to emit that much radiation that it would kill a person would/should have left a trail of bodies along it's path.

I'm not buying this story.

until now it never has been reported that a handful of senior New York City Police Department bomb technicians, including at least one grandfather, had volunteered to disarm the device.

And they didn't even bother to consult someone who actually knew something about nuclear weapons?
