FBI Anthrax Investigation Under Scientific Review/ Science online

Brief article by Yudhijit Bhattacharjee:

A long-awaited review of the scientific evidence relating to the investigation
of the 2001 anthrax letter attacks is finally getting off the ground. The study,
to be conducted by the National Academies, will check the validity of the
scientific techniques used by the Federal Bureau of Investigation in solving the
case. What the study will not do, as spelled out in the academies’ official
description of the study, is issue a verdict on whether U.S. Army researcher
Bruce Ivins was indeed guilty of the crime, as concluded by FBI officials. . .
