Background
The D.C. sniper attacks(also known as the Beltway sniper attacks) were a series of coordinated shootings that occurred during three weeks in October 2002 throughout the Washington metropolitan area, consisting of the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. Ten people were killed, and three others were critically wounded.
The snipers were John Allen Muhammad (age 41 at the time) and Lee Boyd Malvo (age 17 at the time), who traveled in a blue 1990 Chevrolet Caprice sedan. Their crime spree, which began in February 2002, included murders and robberies in several states, which resulted in seven deaths and seven injuries. In total, the snipers killed 17 people and wounded 10 others in a 10-month span
Katie Florsh joins Ed Opperman to discuss her findings while looking into the case. There’s reason to believe the FBI had more to do with the events in 2002 than just an investigation…
Did they have information they sat on? Were the assailants known to the FBI before they moved in on them? Were the events of October 2002 allowed to continue past where they could have been stopped to re-enforce the sense of paranoia and suspicion which pervaded the US in the couple of years following 9/11?
