Description: In this episode, we will be discussing the 2001 Anthrax Attacks. The attacks were less than a week after the terrorist attack on 9/11, instilling more fear in Americans. Over 10,000 people were affected by the powder sent with letters containing threats to America. After ten long years of working on this case, the case remains relatively inconclusive, with their only prime suspect taking his life before they could indict him. Join us as we discuss in further detail the specifics of the attacks and investigation into these mysterious letters.
