2013-06-09 |
JUNE 7-- Son of PRISM 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 lives with her husband. The Bloomberg letter was opened at a municipal mail center in Manhattan on May 24, while the letter to The Champ was intercepted May 30 at an off-site White House mail facility According to FBI Agent James Spiropoulos, investigators accessed a Postal Service computer system that "incorporates a Mail Isolation Control and Tracking (MICT) program which photographs and captures an image MICT and PRISM...do they talk ? A review of that mail revealed that each piece carried return addresses listing zip codes in the New Boston area. A similar analysis of 40 mail pieces that were processed "immediately before and after the mail piece addressed to The Champ" showed that several of those letters listed addresses in two Texas cities near New Boston. According to the felony complaint against Richardson, she confessed yesterday to "mailing the three letters--knowing that they contained ricin." She repeated earlier claims that her husband Nathaniel, who has not been charged, was involved with the Obama and Bloomberg mailings. Richardson alleged that her spouse "typed the letters and made her print and mail them," reported Agent Spiropoulos. Good work Spiro. Please contact Nate, he says he owes you a case of Mythos. Wasn't Spiro Kojak's brother in law? If convicted of the ricin mailings, Richardson, an aspiring actress, faces a maximum of 10 years in prison and fine of up to $250,000. Her confession should assist the conviction. |
