Here is what I have learned tonight while watching replay's of the MSNBC shows.

~ The bullet removed from the Ponderosa shooting is linked to the other sniper shootings.

~ Police received a call from someone Saturday night (Police think it was the sniper) - The caller informed police that a letter was left at the Ponderosa shooting site. (Media did not say where it was located at the scene, so it may not have been in the woods behind the Ponderosa).

~ Police located the letter at the scene, but did not open it right away as they wanted to process it for fingerprints, etc... ( I would guess that maybe they found the letter before the call came in about the letter being at the scene, maybe the sniper was anxious for them to find it.)

~ Police finally open the letter and read it. It is a fairly long and detailed letter that also includes a "listed" Phone Number and a specific time that police are to call this "listed" number. Police opened the letter too late to meet the specific time the sniper wanted police to call the number.

~ Facts known about the letter... It had 2 phone numbers written down on it, it had specific treats detailed in it, it had instructions meant for the police on what the sniper wants them to do and how to handle the information in the letter when addressing the media, it had some of the same contents as the tarot card that was found at Tasker School.

~ The first announcement from Moose on Sunday night was to let the sniper know that they basically missed the specific time period to make the call and for the sniper to call again. The sniper made the call to police sometime between Sunday night and early this morning. Moose came out this morning to let the sniper know they received the message and are basically reviewing it. Then the second release from Moose was to let the sniper know that the message he left did not come across clearly.

~ It is known now that the sniper may be using a Voice Changing Device and that police could only make out about 25% of voice message or conversation.

~ The pay phone at the gas station was under watch and police believe that he has used this phone to contact police (is the phone he called from to contact police on Saturday night to inform them about the letter being at the Ponderosa scene?...probably and probably is not one of the phones that police had phone numbers for that were written in the letter)

~ The 2 men (the illegals) in the white van were at the wrong place at the wrong time, they just happen to fit some of the sniper scene witnesses accounts (olive skin and driving a white van with a ladder rack). They just decided to use that pay phone.

~ Schools in the area of the last shooting have been shut down again for a second day.

~ Media knows of some things that were written in the snipers letter, they have been told not to release what they know to the public. But some media sources are saying that we could be facing rough times ahead, this is is based on what the media knows about the contents of the letter.
