Anthrax Man Conspiracy
Ooh, get in on this one early: Family man, community volunteer driven to suicide by relentless innuendo and investigation? Or nefarious developer who stood to gain from anthrax panic? Six years of complete cooperation with the investigating authorities, but a history of homicidal threats? This one promises to be as big as the Kennedy assassination, unless a smoking gun shows up.
I'm actually anxious to see what details emerge. This was the scare that really cemented the "climate of fear" in the US after the Twin Towers attack, but there's never been a good suspect or hard evidence show up.
And don't forget, there's already been an exonerated (and well-compensated) suspect through the mill. Dr. Steven Hatfill.
