Anthrax - Mailing conspiracy

The lack of public evidence and lack of public follow-through investigation does make one wonder what the Bush Administration is afraid it would find out if it solved the case...

But until the next Democratic administration, we'll have no further light shed on this officially it seems.

Why do they have to make everything public? Maybe they just can't solve the case. Look how long it took to catch the Unabomber and he was a repeat offender, over numerous years, leaving numerous clues.

Well, it may be the best way to run an investigation, but it leaves the public wondering if anything is being done.

And given the targets, it leaves this member of the public wondering if it was some person associated with the GOP who sent out the letters. If the Bush administration has the same fears, then they could do damage control by having only a minimal investigation underway.

I'm sure they don't know who did it. But I think they are afraid to find out.

Are you now engaging in a bit of Woo? The Bush administration has shown enough ineptness, what makes you think they would be able to help cover something like this up? Why would the FBI help?

It is speculation and I admit that, because they have a desire for secrecy that seems to be unique in American history.

Just look at the trouble subpoenaing even mundane records from them!

I am saying that if you fear an answer, you will sometimes do the minimum necessary to find it. You don't need the FBI to be helping if you simply give them insufficient resources for that case.

I don't trust these guys, in fact I think them to be criminals on a number of levels. I don't think they MIHOPed 911 and I don't think they MIHOPed the Anthrax, but in the case of the Anthrax, I don't think they want to know who did it.
 
Thank you all for looking into this. It's a very weird case, especially in that it remains unsolved. I did some research on it I'll have to dig up, but surely at least two new things to add.. later.
 
The major issues with the case is that there is no evidence to work with and thousands of suspects. The anthrax was crudely made and so didn't require huge knowledge or big labs, and the letters themselves hold no clues to the sender either. The person that did it might not even still be alive. Add to that people attempting to muddy the waters for their own political agenda and filling the media with their lies insteadof allowing the FBI to concentrate on doing their job... It's not really a surprise that no one has been caught yet.
