JOANNE JACOBS (whose permalink isn’t working, so you’ll have to scroll down) wants to know where the evidence is on Steven Hatfill. Good question. There’s some circumstantial evidence here and there, but there’s obviously not very much or he’d have been arrested. But there’s a steady flow of news stories that more or less convict him. Is he guilty or innocent? I don’t know. But perhaps he should go have a beer with Richard Jewell and Wen Ho Lee.

UPDATE: A reader writes:

It’s just amazing how it’s gone completely down the memory hole that one of the 9/11 hijackers turned up at a Florida ER with the loathsome pustulence of skin anthrax. Everyone’s so eager to find that the guy behind the bugs is an angry white male from Hollywood central casting that mere facts just go poof.

Indeed. I don’t remember the ER story, but I remember quite a few stories indicating that some of the hijackers, including Mohammed Atta, had signs of anthrax infection.
