Good post. I think there's a ping list somewhere for folks following this story. Not sure who to ping, though.

"His brother, Joel "Joe" Henry Hinrichs III"

Same surnames so Thomas' brother is Joe III. Thomas father should be Joe II. BUT...

Thomas Hinrichs was arrested Nov. 15 in Colorado Springs after his father, Thomas Hinrichs Sr

It's not? What the hell?

His father has said Joel Hinrichs was severely depressed.

Sounds like the whole family is severely depressed, suicidal, bipolar, etc..

OK, I think it's safe to say, regardless of legalities, that this family is seriously screwed up.

Yeah, sounds like there may be some hereditary schizophrenia in that family, which is an incredible tragedy.

It doesn't work that way. I think Sr. and Jr. imply passing on the name straight from father to son, but with II and III, you can skip generations.

He left a second message in October saying "I will ... bury you, do you understand, I will bury you," the affidavit said.

This one is never going away! That kid was no lone suicide bomber. Computer turned out to be very interesting if the leaks are to be believed. Considering some of the sources, I would say that they are credible.

Missed this part of the story...can you lead me to the info? I remember when this happened and it just kept getting weirder and weirder with his connection to the Mosque nearby...

Hmm, some things are wrong in this article. First of all, it's Thomas Carlyle Hinrichs and the father's name is not Thomas, it's Joel Henry Hinrichs Jr., called Joe by most.

I don't see anything in the Hinrichs family history I put together about anyone named Thomas Hinrichs Sr.

JoelIII, the bomber, has four older siblings - Angela, Berkeley, Christopher and Thomas. Age and birthdate are right for the Thomas in the story, but I have no idea who the Thomas Sr. could be who reportedly turned him in.

I have more, but will stop there for now.

There's no such person as Thomas Hinrichs Sr. Something smells here.

Police who arrested the younger Hinrichs said he had a Romanian-made assault rifle

I very much doubt he had a full auto/select fire rifle. But even cops don't know the proper nomenclature for a semi-auto carbine. Nor does Colorado have a state definition of "assault weapon".
