Anthrax: FBI Ends Maryland Forest Search in Anthrax Investigation The FBI Friday wrapped up a second search of a section of forest near Frederick, Md., related to the bureau’s investigation into the autumn 2001 anthrax attacks, the Associated Press said Saturday (see GSN, Jan. 28). Investigators left the area Wednesday night after scuba divers used video equipment to search three ponds in the area, near the former home of Steven Hatfill. The anthrax letter attacks left five dead and infected 13 others. Hatfill, a former U.S. Army biologist, has been the public focus of the FBI’s investigation, said bureau spokeswoman Debra Weierman. She refused to comment on what, if anything, investigators found during the search (Associated Press/Yahoo.com, Jan. 31).
